A change of plans - Sofa time!



The Madwoman is supposed to be finishing off some papier mache Keepsakes houndies ready for sale next week to help raise money for Kim's Home for Elderly/Abused Dogs, Greyhound Gap and Millie the Whippet's cancer treatment. Unfortunately she was a little hasty opening a tin can this morning and sliced her finger open...

 Archie still has a bad back and had two visits to the vet last week with it. Our lovely McTimoney auntie Caroline Hicks is coming again to do some more tweaky stuff to it on Monday.

So it looks like we'll be having a sofa weekend.

Fortunately the post brought us a copy of our auntie Susan-from-up-North's latest book, The Drover's Dogs. It has 'dogs' in the title, so that sounds promising. But while we are reclining on the sofa with the Madwoman reading aloud to us, we shall be listening hard to see how many wippitts are in it ...

Sorry whippets, never a whippet from beginning to end.
Very sorry to hear about your madwoman's cut finger, though.

Pfffft. Definitely an oversight Aunty Sue. You'll need to make up for it by doubling the whippet content in your next opus :-)

Could they be honourary whippets? They're intrepid and heroic, after all.
How's your finger, Madwoman?
