Hi there,

Nancy here again.

I am so excited. I heard my Mum talking to Grandpa Trevor on the phone last night. Grandpa and Grandma are coming here to visit us. Then I’m going home with them for a holiday. I love staying with them. They play games with me, they let me sit on their laps and they have a lovely warm fire. I enjoy sleeping by the fire.

I think Mum said they are coming next Tuesday, but I’m going to keep watching through the lounge room window in case they come soon.

Talk to you soon.

Nancy.

Nancy's friend Butch

Hi there,

Nancy here again.

I AM FURIOUS.

I’ve just discovered that my friend Butch went to stay with Grandpa Trevor and Grandma Corinne recently. The cheek of him. He didn’t ask permission from me to stay there. And I bet he slept in their bedroom too. That’s MY place to sleep. If I find out he has been sleeping on their bed, the friendship is over. I’ll never speak to him again, or go to visit him.

The only reason I will forgive him is that his mum and dad, Keith and Rose (lovely name – same as my Mum) came to visit me at my home. They were having a little holiday near my home. They had dinner with my Mum. Keith is good to me and pats and rubs me.

Talk to you soon.

Nancy on Great Grandma's lap

Hi there.

Nancy here again.

Today I want to tell you about my Great Grandma Connie. Great Grandma often comes to visit Grandpa Trevor and Grandma Corinne. I then get lots of pats and rubs on the back. Oooooh I do like that. I also like to sit on her very comfortable lap. She rubs me all the time and it feels really nice.

Sometimes Great Grandma comes to visit my mum Rose in Clare. Then I can play with her all day and sit on her lap whenever I like. When Rose goes off to school to teach she leaves me home by myself, so I like having visitors like my Great Grandma. She’s cool – but her lap is warm, and I like that.

Great Grandma spoils me too. She sometimes slips me a piece of meat or a bit of biscuit from her plate. I try not to eat too much because that will make me fat. So when I eat too many treats I like to take Great Grandma for a walk. She needs the exercise.

Talk to you soon.

Hi there readers.

This is Nancy again – the dog with attitude.

A few days ago I mentioned my good friend Butch. Let me tell you about him.

First – we are just good friends – nothing more. I like to visit his home and he comes to visit Grandpa Trevor’s home. When I go to visit Butch we play games in the garden. Sometimes he gets jealous if I play with his toys. He can be very possessive.

I must be careful to eat from my food bowl. He growls at me if I try to eat from his bowl. That’s a bit mean but I guess it is only fair. It might be more polite to share but that’s the way he is. Sometimes he has a visit from his cousin Charlie. Charlie is a strange dog. I don’t feel like telling you about him; he’s odd.

Here is a photo of Butch in his lovely comfortable bed. He won’t let me share his bed, but then I have my own bed.

Sometime I will tell you more about Butch, my best friend.

Talk to you soon.

Nancy – the dog with attitude here again.

How are all of my readers going? I’d like to hear about you in the comments section.

Today I am going to tell you about my Mum. Her name is Rose. She is a high school teacher. She works very hard. When she goes away from home for a holiday she always takes a pile of books to read. This is so she can teach her students about books. You should see her library – she has heaps of books. Below is a photo of her reading while on a holiday earlier this year. Grandpa Trevor took the photo of her relaxing in the sunshine reading a book.

I feel a little sad looking at this photo. She didn’t take me with her. She went to a little town called Robe in South Australia. Grandpa Trevor wrote about that holiday on his travel blog. I suppose it was alright though. I had a holiday too. I stayed with my friend Butch.

Now before you start thinking sneaky thoughts, Butch and I are just good friends.

That’s all.

Period.

I will write about him in a few days time.

Talk to you then.

Nancy
