The morning routine

Talk about a creature of habit

William has a routine and we have to stick to it!

William:

Haha...mum was trying to get my attention,

so I closed my eyes and she 'disappeared' !




(now make a sketch out of that mother!)

It was a case of leaping lurcher



(Dog Tree Swing Dog - No Chance! - previous blogpost)





Somehow, I just DON'T THINK SO!

Dad, you really Cannot play on that tree, you are waaaay too old.....

I'm looking out for your safety, you do understand that don't you.......❤️william

What a kafuffle

Why is it,  I start with the lead in one hand - then William decides to walk the Other side of me.  And then, when I've sorted that out, he changes to the OTHER SIDE AGAIN.   At least 10 times in ONE WALK.

I was very pleased to let him off the lead.Okay, got that said, now I feel better 🙂

Mum and dad weren't going to stop,

but I really wanted to look through this

and have my photo taken.

Lucky for me, mum had her camera.





Wishing you all a Happy Easter........💙William








Never mind lad....


He didn't get to say hello to a greyhound the other day, the owner marched it past.  Come to think of it, the greyhound looked snooty too, lol.

And don't worry, during all that snow.....

.....Hamish kept warm in the back of a car on his mum's workdays 

Back seat driver, NO - more like back seat squatter










Friday 23 March 2018

His leg seems to be better....

...and even if it wasn't, he would insist on saying hello to a complete stranger.

Goodness only knows what that poor woman thought!

Poor Lad....

He got a little over enthusiastic running on the beach
and ended up hurting his leg....


Now for a couple of days gentle walks

William:


Mum turned into my hero (at the time anyway).....

With all the snow we got, my bowl of water had disappeared

and mum did some snow shovelling and

FOUND IT.









THANKS MUM ❤️










He might not have appreciated snow, but he suddenly discovered it was good to EAT.






Monday 19 March 2018

We've had another dumping of Snow - William was not amused, Again.



Apparently it's because I made him wear his coat.
Personally he just hasn't considered all the options,
the main one being it SNOWED!














William: 


"It's all well and good, but mum wonders why I don't like the snow ~
it's because
I HATE WEARING MY COAT"

A little bit of negotiating was needed...


....but that doesn't work with William - it was Beach or not at all!









Time for a change - New COMBINED blog - Williamthelurcher Plus SketchingWilliam all in one place....

Having run two William  blogs for ages,  I feel it is time to combine both William's and the Sketching William blogs......


There will be photos on this new blog.  William photos will be from the lad himself...with my help of course.  The sketches will be from the things he has got up to....

all here in ONE PLACE

so lets see how this goes


my lads together in the sun (outside of the pub of course)!

how it was at the shopping centre...

Here's a post from the Sketching William blog,
just to remind you .....


There we were at the shopping centre - Graham went into look around so I waited with William outside.

William wouldn't budge til dad came back.

The thing is,
he hadn't noticed dad walk out and stand behind us.

We almost went into panto mode

"HE'S BEHIND YOU"


William was not amused.
