Woof, woof, everyone.
Sorry I've not blogged for a while. I've been far too hot in all this hot weather. It's alright for you humans, you can wear nice light clothes but I've just got my fur. That's ok in the winter but just a doggy tad too warm in the Summer. Fortunately my mistress doesn't like hot weather either so at least we haven't had to go for long hot walks!
So, what's been happening? Well that new cat is starting to behave itself - only one lot of Mr Cramp's new rows of seeds have been dug up recently. The cat next door has been coming by to have a drink out of the pond - I don't fancy that myself because the birds have been having a bath in it. Fancy drinking bath water - doggy yeuk!
What else? Well Andy had a fall out with Amanda because she fell off her bike in the park. All his mates laughed at her and Andy laughed too. She'd really hurt herself and damaged her bike and had to leave it in the park. Andy felt a bit guilty afterwards. When all his mates went home he took Amanda's bike back and got his dad to help him mend it. Then he was brave enough to go round to Amanda's with the bike and say sorry. He realised that he should have stuck up for her and helped her at the time. I think she must have forgiven him because she wanted to give him a kiss to show that they were friends again. Andy scarpered pretty quickly then!
Think that's all the news. I'm looking forward to Holiday Club - only 9 more days to go!
Hope to see you there

Fun on holiday
Woof, woof everyone,
I've just been on holiday with Mr and Mrs Cramp. We went to Sheringham in North Norfolk - I'm glad it wasn't a long journey because I'm not very good in cars.
We had great fun traveling on the steam railway. I like trains, I can run up and down or have a sleep on the seat. Lots of things for me to sniff too.
The best bits were lots of walks on the beach. The sand was all scrunchy under my paws. The sea couldn't make up it's mind because it kept going in and going out - and I had great fun barking at the waves. Woof, woof!
Here is a picture of the beach when the tide was out. Lots of lovely sand and little waves to play in! Woof!
But best of all was that I made a new friend. I was a bit nervous at first because it was a big dog with huge paws. But Mrs Cramp said I should be brave and go up and say hello.
I did! And I found out that chocolate Labradors are really soppy and great fun. Size didn't matter as we ran up and down the beach, in and out of the waves, down into holes, and really fast after the seagulls! But we didn't catch any, they flew away too quickly. Heavy doggie sigh!
Now we're home and I'm really tired after all that running around. So I won't be in assembly this week with Mr and Mrs Cramp. I'll miss you all but I do need my sleep!
Doggie thoughts until I see you next.

Sophie is a Star
Woof. woof, everyone
I've been having a lovely time. To start with Peaches and Patches came to stay and they had a great time playing in the garden. They wanted to smell all the plants and pick strawberries to eat. We had a great time playing 'Hide and Seek' and they loved hearing the story of how Peaches and Patches Goldilocks went to visit the Three Bears
Then I had a lovely time at Cafe where I got lots of cuddles from the children and had a tasty bacon sandwich.
Everyone made a really great door hanger. Sue made mine before we started so the children knew what to do. Mine said 'Sophie is a Star' which is, of course, exactly right!
Here is a picture of my craft.
I coloured the letters myself but let Sue tie the tricky bows and all the sticky glue bits as I don't like glue in my fur. It's really fun to make and you can hang it in your room or on your door afterwards.
Doggie hugs everyone

Sue: The craft is very easy. We used a foam star, a card one would work too, and punched holes in three of the points then decorated with sticky shapes. We used the Clarity Stamp Letter Box kit to stamp the letters onto card and then coloured them in. We punched a hole in the top and tied to the star.
The theme of the morning was that we are all special and loved by God.

It's good to have help
Woof everyone.
I've had a funny doggy week. There is a new cat in the neighborhood and it is HUGE. Not only that but it is a mean old thing. Now don't get me wrong - for a dog I like cats. Well Ok, I'm nice to the cat next door because it helped me when I hurt my paw - so I've stopped chasing it and barking at it. But this new cat makes me feel like barking! It's being mean to the cat next door and it's digging up Mr Cramp's seeds.
But instead of barking, I've been really brave this week. I've tried talking to it and trying to persuade it to be nice. But it doesn't listen, just stares at me, like cat's do, and makes me want to hide my nose under my paws just in case it gets it's claws out.
So I was just getting worried that I'm not being a very good dog when Mrs Cramp and I come into assembly. She tells me that it's really hard to change the mind of a cat, especially one which is a bit of a bully. That I should keep trying and remember that I can always ask her and Mr Cramp for help. She's even promised me some really special doggie treats for being so brave! Happy Woof!
I always feel great when I've seen you all in assembly. Thanks for helping to make me feel like a good dog again.
I'm really looking forward to seeing lots of you at Cafe on Sunday

It's hard being an Aunty
Woof everyone.
I've had a bit of trouble with my niece Peaches. She came to stay unexpectedly and I only had enough food for one. So I trusted her to go out and buy some more food for us. She went out alright - but to play with her friends! Then she came back starving hungry and demanded her dinner.
Well I gave her a telling off and then said she could have my dinner. That made her very sorry so she went out, still hungry and came back with some lovely treats for us both.
Because she didn't do what I asked I felt like a very bad Aunty. But Sue and the children at school convinced me that I was doing a good job because I had trusted her to do something ... and then she'd showed she loved me by going out hungry to fetch something tasty for us both.
So then I felt much, much better. Thanks for the encouragement everyone!!!
