If you go down to the woods today...

You surely will get a big surprise! I went to the woods at the weekend and it was fantastic, I’d definitely recommend it to all my chums out there. I was never allowed in decent woods in Australia for one reason or another, be it snakes or other things but these woods were great. I couldn’t get enough of jumping through the long grass, running off through the trees to the call of Olive, Olive and OLIVE! I came back eventually but I was on the trail of something fantastic. Oh best thing ever, sorry hold on, let me start from the beginning.

I can smell you!

There’s this squirrel right, he runs along the back fence of the garden every day. He drives me nuts. Strutting along that fence like he owns the place, waving his nut in front of me, begging me to come and chase. To make things worse there’s a gate and a distinct lack of a level playing field. However in the woods, there he was, that same squirrel. He ran across the path thinking I was at home. So I chased him but lucky for him I can’t climb trees. I’ll find out one day, just what that devious squirrel is up to. Between him, cats and birds, we have a right bunch of thieving ‘you know what’s’ hanging around our garden.

There he is!

Anyway…the woods, if you ever get a chance, go for a run in Londonthorpe woods, absolutely fantastic. I’ve never seen so many brown leaves before; they just feel so lovely and crunchy under my paws. The one thing that eludes me though, is what squeaked at me from the grass? I stared for ages, flicked my ears from left to right but sadly it never showed its face.

Hopefully we’ll get to go there again soon.

Maybe see you here one day?
