What a week....so far

Hello once more,

What a week I have had! We've been to visit Nanny, Bunker missed the bus and had to walk all the way up to Brentwood High Street and Sainsburys on Monday, I've taken him on some lovely walks and yesterday we've had a mexican stand-off. I hate that cat by the way! More about the moggie in another blog.

We've had a trauma with one of the tomato plants in the conservatory, it was getting too big for it's pot and god knows what else was wrong with it and my lovely friend Corinne came to visit me yesterday. It was so good to see her, she's so funny you know. She calls me The Countess - I usually have a good giggle at that. I never let on that I am in fact a Duchess, as I don't want to hurt Corinne's feelings. She loves dogs! And I love her! Her poor Homer has a limp, I hope he gets better - not that I like dogs that much, but Bunker and Munker like little Homer you know. So Homer, if you happen to read this, get well soon.

On Sunday we visited Nanny. I love her, she usually has something nice in the oven and we have the odd nibble when I'm in the kitchen and the boys are elsewhere. Bunker was attacking the Hebe while she and I sorted out Sunday lunch. Munker was treasure hunting for the boot sale we're going to do again this coming weekend. Corinne will be there as well to help raise funds for Wagtails Rescue Essex. Do come along, even if you don't buy any of our priceless antiques you can help by donating to the rescue. All donations are welcome, better yet, adopt or foster a dog. Corinne has some lovely dogs that need a new home. You never know, you might end up with your very own Bunker and Munker!

We'll be at the boot sale at Boreham Junction, where the A12 meets the A130 at Junction 19. It'll be a lot of fun and I hope we do well. After that we'll be having lunch with Nanny.

Before I go, here's a photo of me doing one of the things I love to do.
Not very ladylike I know, but it's fun, so there!

Love to all,
Charlie,

Dowager Duchess of Ingrave and Herongate.
