MUM WON A RAFFLE AND WE GET THE SPOILS!

Mum entered a raffle at Bigdog Pet Foods (our favourite gourmet takeaway) and she won! And the best part is that we get the winnings. How cool is that. A big slurpy woofy lick to Chris, Kirsty, and the team at Bigdog for our prize. You guys are the best!

This is us checking out our winnings.

LAST GAP PROMOTION FOR THE YEAR

We were used yet again! At least it was for a good cause. We did another Greyhound Adoption Program promotion last night. This one was at Albion Park for the races. The GRA decided to have a beach theme for the races, so we figured we would join in. We had beach towels, buckets and spades, beach balls, swim goggles and caps. The only thing that was missing was the waves and the sand. All us greys got to stand at the front entry to the grandstand in our beach theme gear and scam cuddles from passers by. Aimes and me decided that we would share a few photos of some of the greys who came along.

This is me wearing swimming goggles.

Banjo was very worried about where his Mum had got to.

This is Curly and his money shot. Curly was good at looking after our raffle money.

Gracie also wore goggles.

Iris was making a big deal at practicing the hula as she walked around. Shake those hips babe!

Kirsty and Gracie talked up a storm with a soon to be greyhound owner!

This is handsome Sharky. The grey muzzle always makes a man look distinguished.

Iris is good a smooching with her Mum.

This is D. She has shacked up with our friend Jack. They are like keys on a piano, D is a stunning white grey, Jack is a handsome black.

OUR HOUSE IS SOLD AND UNCONDITIONAL - AND WE ARE STAYING!

Mum just broke the news to us that she has sold our house! The contract went unconditional today and our home is not ours after the 21st of this month. This explains how come she spent 3 weeks rushing us in and out of the house while heaps of people were lined up outside our gate. We thought that we had gained a fan club of stalkers, but no, Mum sold our house. Now what are we going to do?

Mum has explained that we are going to stay here for a while and rent it back until she finds us a new place with a bigger yard. She better keep her promise. The only way that this is going to be made better is if me and Blaze have heaps of room to stretch out to do zoomies. Perhaps Mum would let us have lots more of our friends to come over and play?

RIP LITTLE MAN

Since we have had people coming in and out of the house so often, and Sam's tendency to suck people in for a scratch and then take their fingers off at the neck, he has been on holidays at Grandma and Papas. Mum came home last night and told us that poor Sam had moved on over the rainbow bridge and we would never hear him tell us "what ya doin?" again. Poor Sam. He apparently let out a sqwark, fell off his perch and passed away. Grandma went to see what was going on and got a shock. And Grandma and Papa's furry football Smudge has been upset by it as well, she keeps going to Sam's cage to see where he has gone.

Sorry to see you go Sam. Spread your wings and fly free feathered friend. It will be so very quiet around here without you.

WASH BEHIND YOUR EARS JEFFERY!

I am not letting you out of this bathroom until you have washed behind your ears!

NOTHING LIKE GETTING A BIT FRIENDLY WITH A FRIEND

We had a busy weekend. Mum took us to meet up with some friends and we went for a walk through the city of Brisbane. You don't know how many people are up that early on a Sunday morning, or perhaps they still hadn't gone to bed from the night before.

We walked from the Botanic Gardens up George Street, across Ann Street, Down Creek Street and then cut through the markets (BTW did you know there is some good food there) and then along the river and back to the Gardens along Felix Street. Whew, it was a long walk but we made it. See Mum we do have some stamina when we want to.

Mum had breakfast in the gardens with her friends while they chatted. Of course did we get to share her Eggs Benedict? No, she is a greedy pig, Though she did give us a pigs ear when we got home.

We figured that while they were eating we would lay down and have a rest. Amazing how comfortable a muzzle can be if you lie the right way.



Me and Amie thought we would show everyone how friendly we really are towards each other.

BEDS

I figured that I would help Mum with the cleaning of the house this afternoon. She had to move our beds to vacuum and I figured that I would keep an eye on them so Blaze wouldn't mess them up.
