House sitting...again..

We have picked up another house sitting job with friends from the Game Club so have relocated down the road to Winfield to look after their house. Lovely though the house is I have to say the main draw is their unbeliveable cute dog called Rupert.

He's a 2 year terrier cross, full of beans and amazingly attractive to young and old! We have had children rush out of supermarkets, spend 10 mins fussing him and then all you can hear as they cross the carpark is 'Mummy, can we have a puppy? Can we have one like that? When can we get a pupppyy, plu-eeaassee!'. We are expecting a petition from the harrassed parents of Winfield banning us from Coopers (local Bugdens/Morrisons)!

Also very positive effect on the older members of the community as we take him for walks along OK Centre beach in his little red sweater (well it is minus -12C at the moment!)...thinking he would be very useful for bank jobs, kidnappings etc ...everyone's too busy noticing extremely cute dog to fuss with the major criminal heist...

...but lovely though he is....Otter's still the best...we did take a photo of me cuddled with the dog on the sofa but in case Otter does see this on the parents computer decided not to post it in case it causes major psychological damage!

On the Otter subject, guilt over dog sitting, has occassioned a rash of phone calls to Air Canada, and BA to get the little horror over here!
