Summer Weekend Holiday


We hear that many of our friends up north are having snowy cold days, and thought you would like to see the sunny place mum went to at the weekend. She went to New Plymouth, a beachy surfing town about 5 hours drive north from where we live. It was super hot - summer has arrived a touch early.


She went with her besties to see this guy - Jack Johnson. His concert was awesome, he is one of the few artists mum has seen who is much better live than on CD, and she admires that he donates 100% of his concert profits to charity - yeah for him, coz really once you get really rich, there is no need to be flashy like so many celebrities. He wasn't a chatty cathy, he just got on the stage and sung and then went home.

I was meant to go to the cattery, but mum couldn't catch me - hahahaha!!!! So I gotted to stay home two nights by myself and two bowls of biscuits, mum says she hopes I didn't eat them all on the first day. I furred up her bed, and am now snuggled on the bed next to her.

Sweet dreams everybuddy!!

  4. What a great weekend your mum had! We could use a bit of your hot weather, but of course will have to wait till, oh, June or July 2011.

    BTW, yes, it would have been a great time for a house-trashing party, Poppy!

  8. When mum left us overnight, she put out lots of bowls of food for us. She found we ate less.
    And beside, you are allowed to go off your diet now and then! Were you ok being alone for so long?

    Love to you dear.

  11. That was not very nice of you, Poppy, running away from your human so you did not have to go to the cattery. But at the same time, how sensible! She needed you home to keep a watch over things, she just didn't know it.

  13. Hi Poppy! We have missed seeing you since moms work computer is all blocked up! We are totally jealous of your nice weather - it is cold and rainy here now. The pictures make that place look so beautiful - we want to visit it! And we think you were so smart to hide so you got to stay home alone - that must have been so much fun!!

    And it's way cool that you got to stay home all by yourself!
