Poppy has Taken Over Paula’s Job
- Mother and Daughter
Poppy has taken over Paula’s job of being a hooligan!
Whilst Paula has calmed down considerably, Poppy is just mad…Her life at the moment, consists of eating (lots and anything…), sleeping (in the most inconvenient positions on my lap…) and tormenting Paula (constantly…).Her main aim in life is to steal and hide my slippers – and she’s good at it!I have returned to UK (West Sussex) and am housekeeper to a lovely gentleman and his lady. They have 13 ( yes, THIRTEEN…) dogs that all live in the house. We (Paula, Poppy and I) in a nice flat within the grounds. Mostly my job consists of looking after the dogs and vacuuming up dog hair – but I love it!It’s a good job that my employer is a ‘dog man’ as Poppy has (so far) begun to eat the underlay in the flat, she picks up the carpet in the corners and picks at the underlay. It took me a while to discover where all this foam stuff was coming from as the carpet just falls back down covering the missing bits. She has pulled up two bits of the decking outside my flat and eaten it, along with the windowsill outside. She has stolen and chewed several pairs of my specs – probably Paula told her that this a whippet trait…
On the plus side both of my girls love their three daily walks across the 50 acres with the rest of the dogs and have integrated nicely into the ‘pack’ of border collies and terriers.

Escapology
Paula and I are off to UK again.
I went to Longford to do a bit of last minute shopping and bought a ham shank. I thought that I could have the ham on sandwiches and the bone would be good to keep Paula entertained on the ferry.
On the way home I was picking at the meat and eating it – before you say it, I know I should have waited until I got home!
I offered Paula a bit of the ‘crackling’ but, of course, she turned her nose up at it. So, thinking that a fox or some other form of wildlife would love it, I stopped the car Read the rest of this entry »

Paula Decided That I Need a New Phone!
This is a picture of the remains of my phone.
The Remains!
There was, originally a flap covering the numbers before Paula decided to ‘modify’ it. I still haven’t found the rest of it yet though!
I only left her in the car for about 5 minutes but silly me left the phone on the sun visor. I really should have known better.
Over the next few weeks I will be telling more tales about Paula’s exploits over the past 7 months or so. She looks so angelic, but looks can be deceiving – trust me, I know!
