Doorstep Dog

It's always a worry when I can't find Eddie. I'm so used to him being my shadow but now he's going deaf he doesn't wake when I leave the room, either that or he's disappeared because he's up to no good. This afternoon he was fast asleep on the doorstep, enjoying the sun.
The lad has returned home today, he's been away since Sunday morning on a working residential as part of his gold Duke of Edinburgh Award. He's been looking forward to chips when he got back, only to walk there and find it closed having some work done, he's gutted. Apparently he hadn't taken much of a chocolate stash with him either, it's a hard life.
