Bit of a quiet day today. The adults were grumpy because the weather had turned bad and the poor things could not go out skiing in the pouring rain. They have got very expensive raincoats, but naturally, they don’t want to get them wet.

So Grey went out to see his pal, Bernie. He is the one who supplies my tennis balls. Blue Rinse took me for a walk and that was about it until the afternoon when they both took me out for another walk. This was much better with plenty of time to play in the snow until I managed to lose the ball. Still, we had some excitement on the way back. As we passed down the road, I sniffed the presence of a large piece of baguette which had been abandoned a few metres up the mountain. I went and retrieved it, but Blue went berserk and made me drop it after much chasing and shouting. Crickey, she has got a gob on her, that one. She wrenched the bread away and put it on the top of the bus stop! No way I could get that, so that’s the last time I offer her the chance to share my loaf.

Finally, when we got back, I was offered those horrible dry chunks. Why not let me eat the tasty French bread. Anyway, I had my supper, they had theirs, and before you could say “thank you and good night”, they were asleep.

The Agalouts are back tomorrow so I have no doubt they will have brought back lovely treats for me from the UK. If not, they can go straight back and get some and I will stay here. At least I am allowed to sleep where the fancy takes me.
