Today I was really bad. Kate had put Nigel’s slippers on the radiator to warm and I took one off and chewed it. It is unwearable now. I don’t know why they don’t just give it to me. It would be so much easier. Kate then sprayed something on it and gave it back. I think she was hoping that it would be horrid but I quite liked it so she took it away again.

And to top off the morning I had a bit of a bad experience. I was sniffing round the telephone table and got the phone cord wrapped round my neck. I tried to run away, half strangled myself and brought down the table, phone and  CD player. The table went flying, along with the address box, pens and pencils and a charity collection box full of change.  I was still tugging to get away and strangling myself in the process when Kate came out of the study and calmly removed the cord. I felt rather subdued after that but I wasn’t told off. I did then however leap onto a slice of marmaladey toast left on the coffee table for just a moment.  I was very told off then!!!  I must go, it’s time for a walk in the snow. I love snow!
