<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I was very excited when the postman came to the
door this morning. Not, perhaps, as excited as Rolph, but I am working on his "I
wanna eat postal workers" attitude.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Anyway, my Secret Pawtner, Patty Crawford, had
managed to get her parcel to me super quick - no mean feat with all the post
strikes we've been having here.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>She sent two bags of treats for Rolph and Clara,
somehow second guessing I have just realised Rolph is intolerant of wheat
(that's another story for the Drool *raises eyebrows*).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>She also sent a poo bag dispenser that clips onto a
lead and some refills. I was delighted with this, as it is something I have
often considered buying, but never quite got round to. Then there was some
seasoning which had a basset as its mascot, a photo album to show everyone I
meet piccies of my bassets, some basset sticky notes, a fold-up water bowl for
travelling, the funniest basset tennis ball, a minature Hush Puppy that ahroos
when you squeeze its tummy, and an amazing painted basset gnome.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Patty, I can't thank you enough. Rolph is also
particularly grateful as he has had no treats for three days as I haven't seen
any without wheat. Conversely, Clara had hoped to get them all to herself - but
that's princesses for you!</FONT></DIV>
