Tilly's Tales

15/09/2024

Well what a day, Richard, Fi and Amalie are here and it’s been brilliant. We all went to Bondville Village, mum decided to have a coffee because she only went round a couple of weeks ago but that won’t be happening again as Amalie was calling for her all round the little village 🤣.
Then we all went for a walk on the cliffs and it rained but that didn’t matter. Wendy and Toffee came too so proper family affair. I Teddy barked ever time the little train went past as he hates it with a passion.
When we got home and had some lunch mum played with Amalie and they both had a wonderful time don’t know who was more excited, we went to bed as tired out and I think mum might be too.
Tomorrow the fun starts again 🤗

Whoop Whoop would you believe we were FaceTiming with Amalie this evening and they are coming next week to see us, I am so excited as you know Richard is my most favourite person in the world although Fi and Amalie are great too. Amalie calls me woof woof but I don’t correct her and say my name is Tilly .
Mum is already running about like a headless chicken stripping beds etc and dad deciding what we will have to eat and where we are going to go. I really am like a dog with two tails and I think mum and dad would be if they had one 🤣🤣🤣🤣 will let you know how we get on ###

A friend of my mum says that it time to give you all some news on how I’m doing.
Well I am now the grand old age of nine so I don’t get around as well as I used too, a bit like mum and dad really 🤣🤣. Teddy is seven and still full of beans but a quick nip from me quickly calms him down.
We haven’t done an awful lot because mum and dad haven’t been well but they are lot better and I did hear them discussing us going into the doggy hotel, we did go for a few days when mum and dad went to see Richard, Fi and Amalie. Did I tell you we have a new member of the family she nineteen months old and a right chatterbox and you have to be careful because she repeats everything you say, in fact Richard picked her up from nursery and Megan who looks after her said “here you can have your parrot back” We talk to her on FaceTime and she likes to see Teddy and I, I think she likes us better than mum and dad but don’t tell them I said so.
Dad has been taking us for long walks on the seafront and there has been dolphins in the bay and everyone gets so excited, Wendy got really miffed because she hadn’t seen them and then one day she saw them and you would think she had won the lottery 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Wendy and Toffee came today so him and Teddy have been racing around like looneys.
Anyway that’s all for now until I think of something else to tell you my memories not what it was!
Bye ###

Dad made me walk 5 miles, that’s a bit much, especially on my birthday 🥺

Hi everyone, it’s my birthday today and I am eight years old, sometimes wonder how I have lasted this long, lost count of the times mum has said “if you don’t stop barking I will shoot you” Quite difficult I think as we don’t have a gun but humans say funny things don’t they.
This is me with my snowman which is nearly as old as me apart from the fact it has lost its squeak it’s in really good condition, it has a wash occasionally and is hidden away when that rascally Toffee comes. It’s my favourite toy and even Teddy treats it with respect. Anyway off for my walk with dad he has to get his steps in and my little legs have to work a bit harder these days take care everyone bye ###x

Would you just look at that, Teddy all groomed and smart and I look like a scruff bag, it’s not good enough, although I did hear I was going to Foxy Loxies this week so that’s better. We haven’t seen anything of Toffee this week which is in some ways is a disappointment but in other ways good because he’s a complete loon 🐶. Mums just shouted at me because I’m trying to eat the bird food but it has a certain piquancy to eat…hay that’s a good word for a dog😂…. Anyway best be off it looks like a time for a walk.
PS forgot to tell you when Mum took us for a walk on Saturday there wasn’t one but six squirrels in the little wood we go too, Teddy went ballistic 🐿️

Well it seems that people are wondering what has happened to Teddy and me, it’s because Mum has got a bit lazy and we have been usurped by this little rat bag, look he’s taken our bed and made it his own.
We are fine though still as naughty as ever and causing chaos, mum is sick of me barking and has threatened to send me to the gypsies. Teddy not as bad because when we were in the doggy hotel he barked so much he lost his voice and it was nothing but a squeak so funny.
We are very excited because Richard and Fi are going be parents and we can’t wait to see the baby. We had a bit of a trail run when little Renee came to visit and we ever so good with her, but that wasn’t hard she is a little sweetheart. Mum and Dad are going to be grandparents and are absolutely delighted I don’t think we will have our noses pushed out but maybe we had better be on our best behaviour for a while or we might be given the order of the boot.….naa not a chance…
Teddy and I and I suppose Toffee would like to wish everyone a Happy and Healthy New Year.
love and hugs ###

Well it looks as if we have a new member of the Smith family, he’s a Cockerjack. We thought he was just a visitor like all the others Wendy brings home but no it would seem he is a permanent fixture. Teddy and him play constantly I just like to pinch his toys although I will deign to play tug with him occasionally.
I’ve got to say he is quite cute but there’s no off switch. Dad has had to cordon off some of the lawn as it looks like a race track and he got a bit grumpy about it.
At least he’s not spoilt with fillet steak which would have been a bit much seeing as Teddy and I don’t get any “we live in hopes” when he eats his food he just hoovers it up it can’t touch the sides.
I think mum has got a soft spot for him but of course Teddy and I are top dogs and Teddy makes sure Toffee knows his place.

So rumour has it that we are getting a new addition to the Smith household....... and that Teddy and I are going to be getting a new.........four legged friend. His name is Toffee and he is going to be taking up residence with our Wendy in a fortnight. Teddy and I are not to sure how we feel about this at the moment, Mum and Dad have not told us directly, but we have big ears and we know something is going on.!!!
