While Dad's away

Well, Dad's away and its all a bit strange! I'm not saying that I don't enjoy the company of Mum and the wee fella, but its a bit odd having a little less discipline around the house.

I got to do all sort of things that wouldn't usually be allowed - including the obligatory "sit-on-the-knee". To be honest, Auntie Nic, isn't all that good at saying NO to cuddles!

My holiday

Mum and Dad took Nathan off to see some of their friends in Northern Ireland, so I had my own special holiday. I went to Granny and Grandad's for some special treatment and just to put the icing on the cake, Nic came round every day and took me for a walk in the Hermitage.

In fact, on Thursday, we walked all the way from one side of the Hermitage to the other, up the hill and then all the way back. Must admit that I was ready for collapsing when I got back.

The holiday was over nearly as quickly as it began - I'm back to normal sized meal portions and slightly less attention.
