M: Cool mat ✅
A: Tower fan ✅
Altogether too hot? ✅✅✅🔥🔥🔥
Please can we have some cooler weather?
UK heatwaves are no fun...

M: Today is Hoodad's eleventy-billionth birthday (he claims 53!).
No walks today because of the heat but on the plus side, we've had rice and prawn crackers from the Chinese takeaway and got to lick the ice cream tub clean 👅👅👅.
Now to relax...

Another orbit of the great yellow ball in the sky completed, 11 years young, so I'm celebrating appropriately in the conservatory ☀️

M: Today is my 7th Gotcha Day 🎉 As you can see, I've come a long way from the nervous wreck who first met the hoos one dull Saturday morning.
I couldn't have done this without my loving hoos (and I suppose Alice helped as well 😉)
Love to all my houndie pals ❤️

I did my very best ear hiding pose but it's safe to say I'm a tad more outgoing these days 😉

Thank you to our #HoundieSanta for our treats and new toys - Alice has already started the dedding process 🤣
We also have a huuuge new cuddly octopus each which we both love (in our own ways!)

A: Bad news - one less space on the sofas for us and neither of us want to sit with Hoodad for some reason, so we're sulking in unison🤨

M: A tale of two hounds - Alice was crazy enough to choose to go out in the cold tonight. I decided that snuggling with my blanket was a much better option - I think it's safe to say that I win.
