Christmuss Day 2008

I thought it would never get here!

Great stuff, Santa has finally been.
Marge and Phil were having a "lay" in but Stumpy and me got stuck in with the presents.
It was quite difficult really because neither me or Stumpy are very good at reading we could not read the labels. Never mind the grown ups can sort it out later..

Finally Marge got out of bed and put on her new "Dog" Apron and got started with cooking the "Turnkey".

Phil got Marge these Mittens for Chrismas, She loved them but I was not too sure.
I think you would never be able to drive our Tux the Transit with these on!

This Vase thing looked interesting especially the fact there seemed to be a chocolate sweety at the bottom!

It was a devil of a job to get it though, it was just out of my reach. I gave it my best shot.
Stumpy laughed because he had found a big tin of the things!

After my "Coughy Creem" I had another rumage, there was presents everywhere!

I think Phil has made a mistake with this one because we have not got any Cats to "be aware" of!!

Phil got this book from Santa. It's all about our bestest Formula 1 racing driver "Louise Hamilton".
Phil and Marge both think he is great, but some of his sponsors are not.
Marge says the "Sintander" bank owns her bank "Abbey", and they are rubbish at sorting out fraudulent transactions on customer accounts!

I was Knackered after my early start, Stumpy had already had 2 quick naps so I decided to slip into my sleeping "carrier" bag and have 40 Winks!

Fully refreshed I got stuck in with the rest of the presents. This posting box was much too long for my little arms.

This tree was nice, but no good for climbing on and there is no way I could hide behind it!

Phil made this for Marge out of a load of old nuts and bolts.
Its a model of the "Angle of the Norff" in Newcastle.
Marge says Phil is very clever for making it, but she wishes he could finish the bathroom sometime.

Mmm, There is nothing better on Christmuss morning than a nice "Orange Crisp" or a "Hazel Carymal".
Marge says she prefers a "Brazilian Velvet".
Phil did not say anything!

The kid with lots of names bought Marge this "Box of tools"
They looks great but the box had some funny see through paper over it and I could not get my mits on any of them!

Ohh dear!
Phil bought this for the "Kid WLONs", The Codd Bottle was hundreds of years old and has survived through lots of things.
Unfortunately after Phil got home it fell out of the back of the Transit and smashed!

I think this present bag would make an ideal "Shove Wrapper" table and suggested to Stumpy that we had a game!

Bless him, he was not very good at it and I quickly won quite a few wrappers off him.

As soon as I had cleared him out he suggested a game of Hide and seek outside!
Now that will get rid of the calorys!

I see Phil has put the sign up already, Silly man has still not noticed that it should say "Dogs" ha ha.

I hid first, This was the perfect place, right up the top of a tree...

Ha ha, that Stumpy he can't see me.
He is "Blind as a Cat"!

Oh Flip, he has seen me. I'm in trouble now he looks cross!

These blooming Dogs are quick at climbing trees, he was right up with me in no time
He even gave me a playful scratch on my Bum, Ouch!

Enough playing around it was now time to get the Meal ready.
Mart is a bit of a tart really, all I needed was a few treats in my paw and he was my best friend!

His other bestest thing is this "toothpaste" stuff that stops him getting "hairballs", funny I didn't know Mart had any Balls !

While Marge and Phil watched the "Queers Speech" on TV I peeled the Brussle Balls.

I had to pluck some more off the stick, I did have a sneaky taste of one or two and they were "very nice"
Marge says she will always get our vegitables from Janet on Greetwell road!

I have to say I agree with Marge there the Brussle Balls were absolutely lovely and I may have got a bit carried away
There was no need for Phil to call me a Greedy Piggy though!

See there is lots of them ready to cook!
Perhaps I could have just one or two more, While Marge is not looking!

The "Turnkey" was cooking nicely, Phil took it out to "Waist it!!!
I did worry that he would throw it all out. In the end all he did was pour some juice over it and shove it back in the cooker!
The Humands have some odd sayings I can tell you.

I had a quick stir of the Potatoes before Phil lit the fire underneath it
Marge says I was not allowed to get near the fire, I was quite glad really because fire can get quite hot!

I had a nice glass of "Babsberg Lager", to wash the Brussle Balls down.
"Babsberg, don't do Brussel Balls but if they did they still would not be as good as Janets" ha ha

Wow look at this. Our Christmuss dinner is finally ready.
Turnkey, Brussel Balls, Roast Tattys and White Sauce that Marge made out of Bread bits
She is a clever lady that Marge, I bet if Phil made the sauce it would taste of Nuts (and Bolts) ha ha.

Oh my goodness, I think I might Burst !
I hope you all had as good a Christmuss as I did
Lots of Love Babs xxx
