Deputy Poco Loco here with a big barking hello to you all. Our English adventures continued with a lovely trip to the coast of Kent. To cut a long story short… we jumped on our bikes and we wheeled our way to Deal. And while we wheeled around in Deal we bumped into some seals. To let you know the spiel, we joined them for a meal. There were fish… Read More »Deal-icious Fish & Chips

On Halloween last week, we all decided to dress up.  Netty was a big juicy orange pumpkin.  Harry was dressed as a bony skeleton.  The seagulls were flying ghosts and Scampi was a witch’s cat after being blackened by my exhaust fumes (poor Scampi!)  That left only one more costume, the wicked witch and guess who got the pleasure of wearing it?  Me!

Scott’s going to be reading the book… Read More »Book Reading Today!

Good afternoon to you all from the Tower of London. Deputy Poco and I have been pedaling around London today visiting all the amazing landmarks: Big Ben, St. Paul’s Cathedral, Tower Bridge, The London Eye and Piccadilly Circus. There wasn’t a real circus at Piccadilly Circus but with all the people and cars it was a real circus if you know what I mean. We took a ride on The… Read More »London Cawling

Yo dudes, I’m all by myself today.  Marv’s gone he’s hiding from some pink haired poodle – I don’t know why she’s obsessed with him, I’m the good looking one!  I should think he could easily out run her…but these long, painted nailed pooches can’t half shift when they see a celebrity.  You should see some of the shrines to us in these girls rooms, there’s Dogs of Rock Calendars… Read More »The cost of being famous

Harry, Netty and all their friends from school decided to build a huge sandcastle on Koob Beach.  They were enjoying themselves so much that they didn’t realise a lot of time had passed and a huge sandcastle was being made.  In fact Netty who was on the top of the tower didn’t realise until it was too late that she was stuck and couldn’t get down.”Help”  She cried! “We’re coming,… Read More »Giant Sandcastle!

Hi everyone!  Long time no see.  It’s been just over a week now since the launch of Princess Chloe’s Sticky Adventure and what a fantastic launch.  I had a great time meeting everyone, especially Get Ahead Fred was a dapper gentleman he is!  The highlight though was definitely the cakes.  All the children were allowed to decorate a chocolate fairy cake and there were plenty of decorations to choose from! … Read More »Princess Chloe in Battersea

So last week I said that I might ask my granny to send me back into the book…well I did.  Grandma spelled me back into the Four Little Pigs and I grew a snout again!  It was great to see the little pigs again.  They had teamed together to make the brick house bigger for them all to live in – then inside there was lovely wooden furniture made by… Read More »Revisiting ‘the Four Little Pigs’
