Back again!
Posted: Wednesday, 08 August 2007 |
Back on terra firma once more - we have been away on the boat for a few days with Lizzie, Paula and Keith (Lizzie and Paula are the human daughters of my Dad and Keith is Lizzie's chap). Our visitors were up with us for a few days and we sailed around locally. Of course they were pleased to see me and loved me helping them to wake up each morning!
Oh, before I go any further. I have discovered the true identity of the old moggie that has been so derogatory to me lately. Alas it is a poor old thing with very grey whiskers - I think his name might be Ruby or Gazebo. Just to warn him - any more cheek and I will buy my frisbees from somewhere else!
So back to the voyage. Firstly we watched the start of the West Highland Yacht race which was great. Loads of yachts all heading north towards Oban. I am sure they would all have liked me on board to help with their races. We also caught a glimpse of the viking longship sailing across to Dublin. We had heard that it was going to be in Toberonochy harbour for the night - but alas they decided to bypass Luing and head further south.
We also visited Ardfern on our trip and Crinan - both great places to get on and off the boat. I was, as usual, very well behaved and very brave when we came across any waves.
Now we are back home again for a few days. Mum is off again on her travels next week so no doubt me and Dad will be out and about on the boat again. Below are some photos of me on the trip and one of Dad's boat - it is a converted inshore fishing boat. Dad did all the conversion himself. He is very clever really (but not nearly as clever as I am!!).
That's all for now folks - local cat be warned. I am on your case.

Have you missed me?
Posted: Friday, 31 August 2007 |
I have been locked out of my blog. Someone (not mentioning any names MUM) tried to log in and put in the wrong password. See you should never let the humans near the computer. Anyway, lovely Anne from the 成人快手 has worked her magic and managed to get me back on track. I have now changed my password to something I will remember and told the humans to keep their paws out - honestly, I sometimes wonder where I went wrong with their training.
There is so much to tell you about what I have been up to but at the moment I am in the kennels at Taynuilt and have just managed to get access to a computer to say hello to all my fellow bloggers. Seems like those two are off enjoying themselves in Dublin for the weekend. What about me - not a hope. Just put me into the kennels and off they went.
So, as soon as I can sneak back on the computer I will try and give an update. Til then, please think about this poor abandoned lonely dog, pining to get home to Luing.

PS The pesky Cullipool Cat seems to have gone quiet, thank goodness.
