20th September 2013 - Look out - incoming missile!!

Topic of the Day - Happy

This is a very happy Alfie who is a 91/2 stone St Bernard galloping towards me - at for him great speed. This dog homes in on me every time he sees me and although he is beautiful I cannot bear the slobber all round his mouth which he insists on wiping all round my legs!! My friends all laugh because I really hate it and I always end up covered!! YUK!! I took the camera on my walk this morning to try and get a forced perspective shot of a large treat near a tiny dogs mouth. I failed and all the shots were useless - I give up!! This was the best shot of the morning and I thought I could put it in under the "Happy" topic which I missed when I was on holiday.

Finlay says thank you for all the lovely comments yesterday - he is pleased you like him in a scarf!! LOL!!
