The children are back at school and the village is back into its quiet routine. The lady with the six year old, the four year old and the 'unexpected' triplets comes racing along the lane in her battered old Renault. She's late, as she is every day, getting her brood to school. The PONs are told to stand well back. She waves. She also seems to be doing up the six year olds shirt while simultaneously brushing the four year olds hair. The Renault doesn't progress along the lane in a straight line; it seems to weave. The inherent problem of only having two hands when half a dozen would be the ideal number. Angus wonders what breakfast time in a house with 'unexpected' triplets must be like.
We head off to the bakers. Just as I'm about to close the tailgate Bob lets out the most almighty howl.
He then stops and smiles. '' Sorry about that. Thought I saw a squirrel ".
He looks very proud of his guarding skills.

We don't wish to be rude, but poor Sophie looks as though she's already well into a bad hair day. Bob's as alert as ever, we see, so that's one lucky squirrel !
The mind still boggles at the thought of the "unexpected" triplets - did they just arrive on her doorstep unannounced one day?
Quite right Bob. You can't be too careful. Especially where squirrels are concerned.
Well done Bob. A satisfying start to the bestest day ever.

He does look proud!
He does look happy and no doubt glad that you "got it."
There's no doubt about it, Bob is every girl dogs' ideal chap - what a hunk !

What a beautiful smile! I am thinking breakfast with unexpected triplets is like us having a 5 month old puppy in the house. Hectic, crazy and lots of biting.
Just purchased a "Furry Squirrel" from Amazon. Huge hit with the rottie's jaws of doom!
I think Sophie was trying for pigtails with her hair, but something happened in the middle of her style. Bob was not leaving home until all was secure on the home front, no squirrels!
Am I the only one that thinks Sophie's look is perfect?
No. We think it's perfect too. She just likes to try different hair styles.
