'TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS ....

Freddie the cat refused to wear the Santa hat, even though I pointed out to him how many very good and obedient dogs had already done so on Blipfoto. Freddie reminded me that he is not a dog and therefore would not demean himself in such a way, stuck his tail in the air and left the house.

Tarquin the doorstop stepped into the breach but only if he was allowed to wear the stockings off the Christmas tree. Anything, anything Tarquin. I have been cooking and baking all day, it is tipping down with rain and is now pitch black outside, and I don't have a blip!

Tarquin has done a sterling job since moving in with us and now no longer wears his apprentice badge. Thank you Tarquin.
