a yellow and orange thursday

so b says now that there is two of us it's always hard to find the culprit... ok so as we all now know i am a bit partial to woodworking, it's creative... no?

and i love to chase the yellow leaves on the orange brick pavers... have to say that's also the best place for a poop - always guarantees a surprise reaction from b or c when they stands on it arf arf arf

and why can't i drink out of b & c orange & lemon pyrex carafe...

i mean it sits right there by the bed so it must be mine...

and i am sure i would love marmalade if i could reach it...

b collects these scary face pot thingies, help me i think she's wierd!

next week it seems we are on navy... hey blue is that you?

pee ess. it should be noted that during the production of this post i overheard discussions about how i could have been a marmalade or a peanut... what @#$%!...

oh no!

as some of you will know max isn't very well and a number of dogs with blogs hosted max for a day in their country on his world tour, asta, always the one with manners, helped max put together this group photo to honor the occasion and let us never forget all the good times...

last weeks true colours was shocking pink and we may have copped out with a somewhat lame post but there just seemed to be too much sadness going around, too many dog losses for us to even list, today we learnt of one more... poppy who's real 'pink' human dad passed away a week ago... now poppy too, sheesh too unfair, too hard!!

so blue here's an extra shocking pink post to make up for last week and to hopefully bring a wee smile to all the others out there...

mollie actually found this shocking pink cushion in a wardrobe, it used to be hannah's and we had forgotten all about it... she claimed it as hers, instantly dragging it to her new fave spot on one of the chairs... bringing a certain matter to our attention...

seems she's been up to some unnoticed redecorating @#$%!!

you gotta love them... the good and the bad... huge loves and licks everyone!!!

a shocking pink thursday

cop out b...

i know doyle...

do you want to tell them why?

no... do you?

nope...

ok, loves then...

and licks straight back at you... hey b we are all good though eh?

we sure are doyle, we are all good...

next time blue's challenge is orange & lemon...

max's world tour

max's whirlwind tour...

mollie and i welcomed max to auckland new zealand, mollie was meant to do a haka in max's honour but all she could do was bow to the great one... girls are useless!

so max and i hongied (greeting another in maori fashion by touching or pressing noses together) and planned our day...

starting with a bit of ball with the boys... man they don't call them springboks for nothing you know...

then we hit the waitemata harbour setting sail for the auckland harbour bridge, thought max was gonna faint when i told him he was going to be leaping off it... arf arf arf...

way to go max!!

whilst settling his nerves, max was welcomed traditionally to the feast we had planned...

Ha-ere Mai!

Tena ra koe e hoa.

Ka nui te koa

Te kitenga i a koe

Come hither!

You are here friend.

Great is the happiness

at seeing you.

a hangi, or buried food...

the spread was laid out...

and we spent the afternoon scoffing and sharing tales...

sadly the time passed and max was off on the next part of his journey...

till we meet again fine friend!!!...

a cinnamon thursday

so b, you chose cinnamon cos you thought mollie was going to turn cinnamon coloured didn't you? fess up!!

well it's my personal opinion that she definitely borders on the fruity side of things..

oh doyle, what happened to 'sugar and spice and all things nice', i mean look at her... she looks gorgeous basking in the sun with her hedgehog stuffy...

ah, hedgehog stuffies ...*snort*... they are for girls!, let me show you what 'real' dogs play with...

real sharp dogs play with the real thing... no stuffies needed here for this stunt...

infact i'm thinking the cinnamon coloured hedgehog i found was not unlike these cinnamon and sugar fritters...

mighty tasty i am sure!!

pee ess: khyra left us the following which we just had to post...

"I hear a Neil Young earworm...

I want to live with a cinnamon girl...

I khould be happy with my cinnamon GIRRRRRRRL!"

Hugz&Khysses,

Khyra

pawfect!!!

next week blue's challenge is shocking pink... how horrifying will that be?

paw behaviour

did you hear? did i herd what? that you are a corgi tossed herder... arf arf arf

so did you hear you lost cos you really are a good sport and you can't fool anyone...

aw man, what about joey is he okay?, woof off panda boy my thoughts are on tanner...

oh and your mate joey got taken out by a poodle, NO WAY!!! yes way!

told you that ike guy was a bit odd..

a pewter thursday

so some of you will know we have been entered into this years mango minster, its mango's knock-off of a dog show that he runs off his pewter, we think he does that cos it saves him from having to clean up all the poops!

doyle our post is meant to be about the colour pewter it's not about computers...

sheesh b you should have been entered into last years non-sporting category not me... the only thing that lost me the title was joey couldn't tell my front end from my back end...

ok doyle, you wanna play that kinda game? well pewter is a metal often used for rather meritless trophies and because mango minster is a sanctioned event full of merit c & i have decided to award you and mollie with this knock-off...

now you think i'm stoopid too?, pawpaw instead of mango, poor as in bad and listeners as in heard... jeez b mollie's a herder not a hearder... and not a good one at that, she lost in the corgi toss arf arf arf. work on your spelling for crying out loud and why for arfing sakes is joey's smiley 'butt' face on it... you think you're funny or something! you trying to wind me up?

God have mercy on the sinner

Who must write with no dinner,

No gravy and no grub,

No pewter and no pub,

No belly and no bowels,

Only consonants and vowels.

-Ransom, John Crowe

and to all you stalkers out there you better go vote for me in mango's bad sports ...

and just to prove i really can be a bad sport i happily broke the news to mollie that she bombed as a herder and had been tossed by a corgi... her reaction speaks for itself arf arf...

next week blue says we are playing cinnamon... good choice... sharp b, sharp!

and did you spot the pewter in the first pic?
