Happy Birthday Uncle A!

Becky had a day off, and so instead of Christmas shopping, she came and took Archie out for frisbee fun. Much more sensible.

Uncle A came over for birthday cake and a cuppa. I must say, both dogs gave him a sensible, peaceful welcome - not a bark or a yap between them. The trick is to get to the door first (without rushing or otherwise alerting Archie that something very exciting is about to happen) before any visitor rings the bell, which is the trigger for hysterical barking.

Uncle A fair took a liking to Rufus, whom he hasn’t met before, though he retired to his igloo for the entire visit (Rufus, not Uncle A).

JR made a cake for Uncle A to take home. A Dundee cake, so it'll last and he can offer his visitors a slice over the festive period.

The Christmas decorations are up!
