Party at the water park

Image
Hi again. I am sorry its been so long between updates but we have not really been doing anything worth reporting lately. Mummy and Daddy are always busy out at bathroom and kitchens shops every weekend (as we are having them both done up) so its no fun being dragged around after them. What? Not another bathroom shop daddy, please! Hooray, we're going to a party instead! Anyway, this weekend we went to a 1st birthday party at a water park. It was Brill! Mummy, daddy and me had already been swimming in the morning and I have finally got the hang of putting my head under the water and now they are complaining as I never want to get out of the pool. Dancing for joy at the water park. Up to my neck in it again. So, there you go. One day we will post some pics of the bathroom transformation. Its a struggle not having a shower or bath. We have to go swimming more often instead. Bye for now. Boo

Happy New Year to one and all.

Hello everybody and Happy New Year to you all. We have recently returned from our epic trip up north to Townsville where Mummys sister and family live. It took 2 full days to drive there and daddy cannot understand how you can drive for a solid 2 days and still be in the same State you were in when you started (i.e. Queensland). We camped one night at the town of 1770 which is apprently the first place that Captain Cook came ashore in Queensland. That night we went hunting for crabs and we found hundreds of them but one bit my foot. When we got to Townsville it rained - A LOT. In fact new years eve was the wettest ever 24 hours in Townsville since records began. So me and my cousin Kate did a bit of singing and also went bowling which was good fun. We also went to the North Qld museum which was brill and I managed to get mummys head on a platter. Anyway, I will try and get a video on here for you soon so you can hear my wonderful singing. Bye for now Boo

Christmas and some sad news

Image
Hi All, Merry Christmas to you all - it is Christmas Day as I write this and we have had a good day. Last night I left Santa out a wee snack of caramel shortbread and a fine english ale (Boddingtons - the cream of Manchester, apparently). Daddy said santa would prefer to that australian beer. I also left a carrot out for the reindeer! I was up at 5.15am this morning and the beer was drunk and shortbread and carrot eaten. It looked as if santa had helped himself to a second one from the fridge as there were 2 empties lying there. We had all presents opened within about 15 mins and then we all wondered what we could do for the rest of the day. After playing with new toys for while we all went to the park. It is a brand new park that has opened near our house (only 3 days old). Daddy broke some sad news to me recently that Amy Callison in Fort William has got herself a boyfriend . Broke my heart. Here is a pic taken as he breaks the news to me. Very sad! Bye for now. Boo

News update........

Image
Hello again people. To be honest its been a slow news week. Not much to report at all. I was doing a little dancing with mummy last weekend - which I am told apparently looks a bit like Riverdance but I can assure you there was no water anywhere near us at the time. Speaking of things Celtic! I was also told that after doing some painting I looked a bit like William Wallace in the Braveheart film. They can take our lives, but they'll never take our FREEDOM! Finally, last night I was appearing in my first stage role as part of the nativity play. As can be seen I was an Angel (like always?). I am just awaitng the reviews in todays press to see how my public enjoyed it. Not long til Christmas!! Bye for now. Boo.

Roll up, roll up - welcome to Boo's Zoo

Image
Hello one and all. Come, follow me on my tricycle and I will lead you all to the wonderful world that is Alastair Boo's Zoo. In here are creatures from all over the wonderful world (well our garden actually). Firstly, let me introduce you to kitty, the friendly cat from next door. Every morning she pays me a visit through the hole in the fence. Look at me still in my pyjamas too! Now the real reason you are here is to see my brand new bug catcher toy. It is the bees knees, so to speak. Although you cant see them I can assure you that in this pot there are about 5 red bugs, 3 ants (and they bite), 1 ladybug and a caterpillar/centipede type creature. Once i have caught them I dont want to let them go but they do keep escaping every time I take my eye of the catcher. I secretly think that daddy lets them all out. Apparently the other bug, whoops I mean BIG news is that daddy has gone and booked our tickets to go back over to Scotland next year. Another 24 hours on the plane - oh no! ...

My 1st ever camping trip

Image
Hello again. Its that time again - the weekly update. So, we went off camping this weekend to Maroochydore on the sunshone coast. The weather was good until saturday night when it rained and rained and all our chairs and table got soaked. Luckily in dried up in time for us to take our tent down dry again before we headed home. We had our tent at a great spot right next to the sea where we could keep an eye out for pelicans. We did lots of swimming in the sea and playing on the beach. On the saturday we went to Underwater world which was great and we saw sharks, seals, huge crabs and other excting creatures. We went down a big glass tunnel where the sharks swam over my head. Bye for now. Boo

trip to warwick

Hello everyone, we all went to warwick last weekend for a few days. Had a great time with the neighbours new puppy which is only about 12 weeks old. We also went for a picnic and had a major expedition into the australian wilderness. Mummy and daddy said I did really well at walking though the jungle and I loved crossing the rivers. I also received a birthday present from the townsville family this week - a pirate outfit! Off camping next weekend - never been before but sounds like fun. bye for now, BOO
