Hello to all my friends in Gothenburg - and congratulations to Therese and her new husband.  Here is a picture of me on my lovely pumpkin harvest.

Now that winter is approaching I am producing my "Christmas message to the Commonwealth".  (The Queen does this every year - so I think it's only right that I should have a message too.)

I shall be in my "recording studio" with my band on Monday.  So stay tuned for the release, hopefully at the end of next week.

They are very tasty and prolific in the damp and smelly environment of the tent. Alas Mr Pet Human does not approve and therm my prime breeding specimen out into the dark, cold night. Many of my other specimens have drowned in Mr Pet Humans beer and he has unwittingly consumed a few. Still, I shall persist. Not sure what Mrs Pet Human will think when she stays after traditional, well anesthetised bopping session at the end of the festival tomorrow.

The damp is taking its toll. Mrs Pet Human has a horrible eye infection which means that she is scaring small children. We are concerned that it might develop into a sty, thereby occasioning lots of un-called-for Swine Flu jokes.

]]>Another year, another folk festival.http://www.travelted.com/journal/2009/7/30/another-year-another-folk-festival.htmlTrav2009-07-30T15:25:49Z2009-07-30T15:25:49ZMany years ago Mr Pet Human and I hatched a masterplan to convince Mrs Pet Human that the Folk Festival is a horrid, damp, noisy, smelly event that she wants no part of. This year our cunning plan came to fruition and Mrs Pet Human left Folkie Base Camp (the tent) after four hours, FOUR HOURS, to go home and watch Eastenders instead. It took some doing, especially as there was a good chance of spotting one of her heroines at the not Absolutely Fabulous Folk Festival. We have paid off the man who was spraying water on the tent as though it was raining, and the hordes of kids who we paid to trip over the guyropes and we've hit the bar. Hurrah!

]]>Mr. Pet Human Causes a Kerfufflehttp://www.travelted.com/journal/2009/4/6/mr-pet-human-causes-a-kerfuffle.htmlTrav2009-04-06T21:49:07Z2009-04-06T21:49:07ZWe have just come back from Paris but we nearly didn't make it off the plane. Mr Pet Human found a bag under his seat - where bags are supposed to be - and called a stewardess. He had a good old rummage for bombs, etc, at which point the lady in the seat behind said 'that man's got my bag!'.

Oops.

Some people, can't take them anywhere.

Make yours @ BigHugeLabs.com]]>Home from my voyageshttp://www.travelted.com/journal/2009/3/2/home-from-my-voyages.htmlTrav2009-03-02T16:59:16Z2009-03-02T16:59:16ZWell here I am home again. I've been dangled in volcanos and pits of bubbling mud, left at the mercy of untrained check-in staff, stalked by feral cats, stuck in an airport with no bar with two grumpy pet humans for eight hours and worst of all - I lost the last of my quince jelly in Dubai.

Looking back through the photos, I found this one of me which I think shows me at my dashing, modest, sea-faring best (obviously this was taken before my shirt got its quince stains, mud marks and big sulphurous spots from the volcano!).

In case you haven't found the rest of my pictures they are here. Thank you for following my travels. Mrs Pet Human has already found some unused airmiles ... watch this space!

 

]]>Almost Abandoned!!http://www.travelted.com/journal/2009/2/26/almost-abandoned.htmlTrav2009-02-26T03:17:15Z2009-02-26T03:17:15ZThere are times when I regret all those quinces and big breakfasts. The Pet Humans were checked in at Auckland by a trainee who announced that they were two kilos over weight on our luggage. Personally, I think that Mr Pet Human tried a bit too hard on the upgrade front - trying to get rid of - sorry upgrade - Mrs P.H. to business class so he could get at the free booze and stewardesses - but there we were suddenly re-packing at the check-in counter. Out went the Woof Guide and the Fidors and all that was left was Mr Pet Human's Big Lens or my good self. It was touch and go for a moment there - I was almost put in the post for an extended stay with cousin Emma - but common sense prevailed and the Woof Guide, etc, went into Mr Pet Human's big coat pocket, so now he looks even more voluminous than normal. Mrs Pet Human is very upset becuase she calculated her luggage allowance to the picogram.  Needless to say, Mr Pet Human is in the doghouse over his collection of volcanic rock and driftwood samples, but at least he's carrying the Woof Guide so he should be able to find the doghouse fairly easily.
