And now it was Thursday already.. Don't know where the time goes when i'm not looking.

Saturday afternoon we got a call from the dog charity saying they couldnt make it out to do the ckeck on us but she was satisfied by what she had heard from me when we had talked on the phone and it was ok if we wanted to go and have a look at the puppies. We did and came home £55 lighter and with a little pup we have called Raffles . We called him that because he seemed a kind of 'gentleman rogue' and so far he has totally lived up to his name..
Saturday night he howled the place down and by 4am had gone from being called 'poor wee puppy' at 1am, 2am and 3am to 'ducking fog!' at 4am..  Needless to say by 1am on sunday night i gave in to Eirik and let the dog in the bedroom.. the howling stopped.. Hmmm.

Anyway he has gone from being a totally shy sweet loving pup to something the aliens decided to punish us with and chews EVERYTHING in sight, from slippers and undies off the clothes horse to the odd magazine we forgot to lift off the floor, he even decided to take the mouse for a walk this morning, yeah, the one for the laptop not a little furry creature..We did get him a chew toy and he does get fed 4 times a day but thats not enough for him.. i think he just decided to con us when we went to see them and pretended to be a sweet cuddly thing.. Hehehe.. Anyway enough said from my point of view he wants a few words of his own

Saturday:
These two humans came to my house and kidnapped me!!!! I only crawled on their laps because my brother and mum and dad were going mental round the room and it was a safe place to keep an eye out where i could launch my next attack from. They took me in this huge roaring thing that made loads of noise and which went really made me feel ill, it was travelling at a horrendous speed and i just had to get rid of the chicke that was in my stomach on way or the other so i regurgitated it ob the floor of the roaring machine on the last corner before we stopped, unfortunately the male humans arm and trousers got in the way and my direct hit on his shoes failed.. have to practise that one i think..
Got to this other house and there wer three smaller humans there, damn do these things breed?? The three smaller ones were ok and were a little strange though, making all kinds of daft noises that sound like 'oooh' and 'awww' To be honest they sounded like cows in pain but im learning fast its a normal noise for a human to make when they see me.. It was ok for a little while and after a good meal and laying really cosy on the sofa with the two big humans sleeping like little dogs like me should suddenly i was in a really dark place and all alone!! I shouted and shouted for ages and eventually the female human came down and stroked me a little but she left me again!! In that dark place behind this wire barrier i couldnt get past!! I could hear her footsteps slowly getting fainter so i started shouting again, as loud as i could and for hours but no one came to help me!! Finally i gave up and a little while later i heard footsteps again and i was let out in the wet windy place they call 'out'.
I was so tired from shouting all night i couldnt do anything all day but sleep on the sofa and only raising enough energy to go eat some food before flaking out cold on the sofa again. Sunday night the same thing happened!! Once again i was left in the dark and i shouted and shouted and after a while the female ame down and ut this really annoying thing in that played some awful music and i didnt like it one bit when she left again! I shouted and shouted and eventually, when i believe it was 1am (the female said 'bloody hell pup its one in the morning!'), i was taken up this huge hill and into another place called the 'bedroom' where i was put into an old moses basket with a blanket and towel and told to 'go to sleep'. Which i did obligingly of course.
Monday i decided i had to start acting like my old self and started running around like a crazy thing again, it was great fun just to run past something and grab it in my teeth and keep running, you should have seen the humans jump up and chase after me!! This morning though the female got a little cross after i pulled a wire out of the laptop and dragged this mouse thingy over the living room floor.. well its a mouse! Its supposed to run!! No?

Saturday night i had had a bit of an accident and fell over in it in the dark and of course because it was on my shoulder i couldnt clean it off, who would want to anyway? So sunday morning i found myself in the big grey thing they wash the dishes in and had water poured al over me and this soapy stuff rubbed in.. yeuch!! I smelled a lot nicer after though.

Today i have settled in just fine to my new home, i guess i'm not going to see my mum and dad any more or any of my brothers and sisters..
Still i guess it's not so bad here, good food and a warm cosy bed and more cuddles than i could ask for
