muddzslak in guiness book of records



Radio has been training and training in order to join the canine swimathon. and recently, swimming has been supplemented with jumping as high as possible into the water which is why this sunday Radio and Hamish went to allaboutdogs (www.allaboutdogs.org.uk) to show off radio's jumping into the water skills at the jetty. the rain rained so very hard and full that there seemed to be no point in getting any wetter. Radio appeared to be confused as to why the pool water should be any different from the deep-ish puddles in the grass (after all, they reached up to the elbows) - still, he wanted to jump, but the jetty closed early, so he kept leaping into puddles, which changed his russet gold to brown and brakkish.

looking like brown dalmations (muddaltions or muddzslak) Radio and Hamish took part in the world's largest recall (will be in the guiness book of records, that is, if indeed they succeeded number wise...when we left they were still counting)

the camera gave in due to tropical downpour so there are not many pics of during the day. radio though took home a trophy, which is a buoy like charly morph's (but instead of the beach this one is found in the seas of essex...how it got there i have no idea)

back in London Radio couldn't resist to pose for a family portrait....any opportunity...

Cool buoy! Buoys are the bestest thing ever. Mine is supposed to be an 'outside' toy but I've popped it on the spiky plant so it will now fit in the door - hahaaaa!

Radio said...

radio's is now on the outside too (when the kitten rolled around with it it almost got flattened because it is too heavy)

Are you going to the working test on 28th May Radio? I think I might go along and have a go in the special beginners class!

Radio said...

yes!!! we also are having a go at the special beginners class (even though radio is a bit older, he has no clue how to do working for real). great, we'll meet. hamish will also be there.

Redgirls are truly very envious of you "down soufers" and all the fabulous chances you get to meet up and show off and explore all of your potential and skill. Mum used to live in Oxfordshire and a long time ago used to take Nana Cleo and Great Aunt Saffron to some fun days and what have you. Yes as you know redgirls want to move house. To somewhere civilised. With parties. Shops. And boys.I hope you miss us when you all meet up!! We want to hear ALL. XXX

COOOOL we can meet up! I won't feel like such a beginner if you're there too. Mum was so confused by even how to fill out the form so we will be the dunces together :-) Sorry you can't come redgirls. We'll come to scotland sometime soon. Dad's never been there so we will have to make a special effort.
