My best friend Tilley has come to stay with me for a few days. Today we went for a walk to Rosario and as Tilley was with us the Deemings let me off the lead again thinking that I would be good but I soon got fedup with chasing Tilley around and just stayed about 20 meters away from the Deemings so they could not put me on the lead again. When we got to the road I wouldn't go to them so we went over some fields and through some more olive groves. We then came to a place where there were about 6 dogs tied up so I stopped to play with them and the Deemings and Tillley carried on but Chris came back for me after about 5 minutes but I ran away, she chased me and I got myself into a corner so I let her catch me and put me back on the lead. Don't think they will let me off the lead again now as I have blown it. Watch this space to see if they do. We are going away in the campervan for a couple of days so that should be good
fun. Tilley has never been in the campervan before I hope
she likes it!!!

Went to vets yesterday to have my stitches out........the vet said it wouldn't hurt but it did so I peed on vets table and on Christine, would have bitten Cyril and the vet but they had put a mussle on me..........thought I was getting my lampshade off but the vets said at least another 4 days..........went for a walk today with Chris & Cyril it was quite short as the track we were following was blocked by gates so we had to go back to the car. Well because I still had the lampshade on I had to get in the back instead of the front as there wasn't enough room in the front. But it was too high for me to jump up so they were pulling me and my collar came off so I was free yippee. Well did I give them a run around. I went up the track we had just walked to play with a nice dog that we had found gaurding some chicks........but I wouldn't let them catch me eventually they drove off slowly and I ran after the car it started raining but I was having a great time running wild in the olive groves after a couple of hours I was getting tired so as I got close to the car I climbed up a bank and then let them catch me as I was too tired to run anymore. Don't think they were very happy and I was Knac****d so I got back in the car. I was very muddy as I had been running around the olive groves in the rain. When we got back they got their own back they chained me up on the drive and hosed me down. Burrrr it was so cold i tried to bite them again but could not get close after that i just went to bed sulking.

Visit to Vet

10/09/2009
Well all has been quiet recently as I have been kept on the lead all the time. Sunday 6th was a bit funny though as I didn't have any food after 12 noon but I was quite full anyway. Then when I went to bed Sunday night they took my water away too. I was a bit worried the next morning when I went for my usual walk first thing and they didn't give me any food or water but I just kept quiet and lay down in my basket. Then about 11:30 they took me to see this man who I didn't like as the last time I saw him he stabbed me with something sharp. Well wouldn't go with him for a start but he started being nice to me so I eventually went with him. He was nice to me for a start then he stabbed me again with something sharp and I don't remember anything else. When I woke up the next day I had a silly thing on my neck which looks like a lampshade and I felt a bit groggy. Eventually the Deemings came and picked me up and gave me some food, I was starving. They have been taking lots of pictures to make me look stupid in front of my mates but I am enjoying myself as they are letting me sleep a lot instead of going for walks in the hills. I will be glad when I can get this lampshade off though as I keep banging it on everything. Well I must go and have another lay down now speak again soon.

Hi All,
I am now a proud member of the Deemings Mountaineering club. I have had to go through a lot to get this membership. I finally achieved it yesterday by climbing Chamizo (1641 meters) after getting up at the crack of dawn and missing breakfast, pictures enclosed for proof. This is a very exclusive club, other members include my best friend Tilley and the late great Buster (didn't know him personally but have heard a lot about him.

more fun and games

12/08/2009
Hi all sorry about the delay since my last post but I have been away on holiday and the computer broke. Thanks to our friend David the computer is now working again. Well I have been on holiday to the Alpujarras very exciting it was too. I overheared the Deemings saying that they were going to climb the highest mountain in the Iberian Peninsula which sounded a bit scary but what the heck anything for a laugh. Well first of all we had to drive up this track similar to the one to Villa Alta but a bit worse and it was about 20k and surrounded by forest. After about 10k the track was blocked by a gate and it was not going to be opened for a few hours so we decided to park up and walk along the track passed the gate to make sure the campervan would make it. Well I was walking nicely with Cyril so Chris persuaded him to let me off the lead. What fun we had I was running around having a great time just like Tilley does when she get loose at Villa Alta. Well we walked for a couple of hours and when we got back to the campervan there was a picnic area next to the gate and I thought I would rather run off and play in the forest than get back in the campervan. Well the Deemings didn't think it was funny. They tried to catch me for 2 hours then decided that they would have to go now as the gate was going to be closed and they would not be able to do the walk but I still wanted to stay in the forest. So they called my bluff and drove through the gate and I started running after them (it was ok as they were going really slow) but I still would not let them catch me. Eventually we met some people on horses they were British and had a really nice dog so I decided I wanted to play with the dog now. Well I heard one of the horse riders say that they would take me back to their stables and the Deemings could pick me up tomorrow. So the Deemings went off to do their climb (phew got out of that one). Anyway can't say what happened that night but I spent the night in the forest. When they came back down from the mountain they decided to stop after going through the gate and have a cup of coffee and have a look around the picnic area to see if I was there. Well I was there and they spotted me begging food of some nice Spanish woman. Well I though I would play hard to get again and messed them about for another 2 hours before finally feeling sorry for Chris who was grovelling on the ground trying to get me to come back. So I let them put a lead on me again. It was quite nice really as I got to sleep in my nice bed in the campervan but I dont think they will let me of the lead again for some time. The next day they did get there own back on me as I had been rolling in some lovely brown stuff that cows drop on the ground in the forest I was a bit smelly, so they put me in a freezing cold font and tried to wash me but I did put up a good fight and pretended to bite Chris. Today they took me to the vets whoopee what a blast that was. I let him give me one injection but when he tried to do a second one I tried to bite him and jump off the table so they put a mussel on me and gave me the other one but I got my own back on the vet by sh*****g on his table hehe. I also have my own passport now so I will be able to go on more holidays if I play my cards right and don't run off again. Anyway have to go now as i'm a bit tired because after the vets experience they took me shopping in Malaga and then to the beach.
Speak soon

first camping holiday

29/07/2009
Hi All,
Just an update to let you know how I got on at my first camping trip. Well Monday morning started a bit different, instead of breakfast then a little walk I just had a little walk, then went back to bed for a little kip while the deeming busied themselves loading up the car. They then woke me up (still no breakfast) we we all drove off to a campsite near Nerja then I had breakfast. I was then just lying down for another kip when we all got back in the car and drove for a bit till we got to a river (rio Chillar they said it was called). So we parked up and started walking then they started walking in the river, well I didn't think much of that it was only up to their ankles but it was up to my chin. It started getting deeper and when we got to a waterfall that was the last straw. I stopped and refused to go any further so Cyril picked me and carried me up it (thanks mate) and we carried on for a bit longer until the river go too deep even for them so we turned back (thank god). It got better later on we went out for a meal and I even got some bits of fish ( well mostly skin). Next day out walking again to the same place but this time I quite liked walking in the river cause it was boiling hot. But they had a great idea instead of walking along the flat riverbead they went straight up a hill phew it was hot at least they let me off the lead but I didn't run off. Next day they decided to take me to a beach, didn't know what a beach was, no way was I going in the sea, but they did try to drag me in. At last we came home so I can have a rest.
See you soon

Hi All,
It was great to see you all yesterday still a bit confused as to where I live but im sure I will be settled in Trabuco soon. Been out walking in the olive groves behind the house in Trabuco and I persuaded the Deeming's to let me off the lead in the olive groves (hehe) and I keep following them but wouldn't let them put the lead back on me. I kept walking really close to them and then ran around for a bit then got tired so I let them put the lead on me. Wish I hadn't ran as fast as im really tired now already lying down in my basket , might have an early night. I suppose they will be on the wine tonight I just get to lick the cork.
