Woe is me!

I'm not going to name any names but can you believe it????!!!
One of my friends told me I was fat and now Munker & Bunker have put me on a diet.
And all that because I happen to like toast and being spoilt by my nanny!!!

I can't see what all the fuss was about really, but why Corinne ever told them I was fat, I simply don't know. I'm not!!!

There I was quite happy to share breakfast every morning with Munks and Bunks (as I like to call them) and now that has all come to an end. I mean, have they ever tried to eat dog food? No! They haven't!
I bet you if they had to eat dry bits of.....:

Wheat
Meat Meal
Wheatfeed
Maize
Chicken Meat Meal (min. 4% in Chicken Kibble)
Fat
Digest
Carrot (min 20% in Carrot Disc)
Linseed
Rice
Beet Pulp
Peas (min. 4% in Pea Kibble)
Lucerne
Vitamins and Minerals
Added Citrus Yeast and Yucca (the name yucca is a a dead giveaway is you ask me)
and Antioxidant EC additive (Antioxidants!? Do I look like I am old enough to start rusting?)

....they too would hunker for a bit of toast with a spoonful of homemade Women's Institute marmalade like Bunks & Munks are having for breakfast lately!

I guess all I can do now is open up my bag of tricks to see if we can make feeding time a happy me time once more.

I'll keep you posted!
Lots of love 'n licks,

Nanny

My other nanny is coming to stay with us on Saturday! She lives in Holland, where everybody wears silly little lace caps on their head and wooden shoes. And they all live in windmills made of Edam cheese and eat tulips for breakfast and speaks some kind of weird hurdy gurdy language.

I wonder if my nanny looks a bit like this?



She shouldn't as she's a lovely Irish lady, but you never know. I hope she likes me and brings a suitable present over from Holland. She's Bunker's mom so she's bound to be lovely. MInd you I'll have to teach her to speak proper Essex before she leaves! Can't let her leave the country not talking all proper like.

Ah well, simply must have my nap!
Kisses,

On coffee spills...

Nothing much exciting happened today although Munker was in a right todo when I expressed my excitement at seeing him and Bunker by wagging my lovely tail at them. I fail to see why he got so upset when my tail sent a mug of coffee flying over the floor! He'd do the same wouldn't he?

Which brings me to the question, do Munkers and Bunkers have tails? Curious minds like to know.

I'll be seeing you,
Charlie,

Dowager Duchess of Ingrave (and Herongate I've decided)


Ps Im off to see Nanny today, Bunker has to do some pruning.
