The resident expert on the Radio France breakfast show informs his listeners that much of the United Kingdom is governed by Sharia law. Terrorists are ''untroubled by the police ". This piece of nonsense makes Angus bite his tongue . Twenty miles separate the two countries but what a twenty miles it is.
Bob is untroubled by world affairs and gives me his happy look.
In the supermarket we find something very unusual between the plantains and the peppers. The lady at the cash desk curtly informs me '' We are very adventurous with our cooking here in this country ". Angus can't help but think that most denizens of deepest France profonde would run a mile from a Ghanaian Igname. He keeps this thought to himself.
At the bakers we buy an Orange Pistache for 'The Font' and a trois chocolats for me. The PONZ get given some flaky pastry. Their tails thwack against the counter.
Back at home Bob liberates 'lamb on a rope'. Sophie is oblivious to this development. When she does discover what's happened there is a 'howling'.
So starts a quiet Monday morning with two happy and healthy dogs.
Sometimes I'm glad that the NYRB is there to provide adult insight. I enjoyed the article until the final sentence :http://www.nybooks.com/daily/2016/03/17/what-we-now-know-2016-presidential-election/?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=NYR%20Palestine%20Fugger%20moral%20pyschology&utm_content=NYR%20Palestine%20Fugger%20moral%20pyschology+CID_4301787975eae04ec7343122577f9fdc&utm_source=Newsletter&utm_term=2016%20What%20We%20Now%20Know

Triple chocolate beats Ghanian Igname any day in my book!
Cheers, Gail.
Bob looks so pleased with himself, but the same can't be said for lamb on a rope - it looks somewhat careworn.
Yes, triple chocolate is better than the Igname in most people's books, except perhaps for the very adventurous French cooks?
Bob truly has a most pleasant face and one can't miss his triumphant pose after having liberated lamb on a rope. Our friend the Furry Fox has not put in a recent appearance. Has lamb on a rope replaced it (him?) as the favored toy? The first picture is lovely, too.
Fear not. Furry Fox, we think, is currently enjoying a sabbatical somewhere in the orchard.
Aren't you glad you have sensible animals who know how to enjoy life when the human population has lost its mind!?
I'm coming round to the view that all politicians should be made to walk a dog twice a day to keep in touch with what's really important.
No dissent with that view here.
Lamb on a rope is suffering from a surfeit of love.
And thank you for the link to the NYRB article. A very unsettling time this is.
Your cyclamen are gorgeous.
Such exotic fruits in your market. Make way for the durians.
The up and comming presidential elections scare the hell out of me. They really do.
What a lovely day your pictures reflect! It has turned cold here, again. Just when you thought it was safe to go out in the sun, you are knocked of your feet by the wind. I love Bob's smile!!!!
That would be off not of...
You have the Presidentials, we have Brexit.
With Bob and Sophie heading to the kennels next week let's hope that the warmer weather is here to stay !

About time Bob bested Sophie in the toy grab! (Have heard that Sharia Law theory expounded by many conservatives...in the US, Oz... I think Boris Johnson invited Trump to tour with him in those areas.)
