Katie and Grace

Hello, we are two sighthounds who like to blog and Tweet.

I am Katie Whippet - I am a brindle and white whippet, who likes to sleep and eat. I do have some duties, I keep the sofa safe, bark at the bin men, steal and hide shoes and help the puppy evict cats from our garden.

I am Grace Puppy - I am Grace Puppy - I am not actually a puppy any more, but, because I am young, Katie Whippet calls me puppy. I like to whine and play. My duties are keeping watch for cats in the garden.

We live with Mummy, and two cats, Yazz Cat and Tom Cat and like to tell everyone about what we are getting up to.

New Sofa (Debate concludes)

Ooo, Helloings, it do be Grace Puppy Here.

It has been so excitings over the weekends, because mummy do be havings a new sofa!  Well, it is not actually new, it is secondhand, but, it does be new to us.

Well, new sofa has taken on a bit of a life of his own, just like muddy puddle, he is about to become famous.

Mummy do by buyings new sofa off a friend from workings, who be movings to London to workings for a University in the Big City! Because she be goings to London, she cannot be takings all her furniture, because her new house beings smallings!  Well, she be livings in a Town House in Derbys.  So, sofa did do livings on the first floor - and because he beings 7ft longs, and 3.5ft wide, he not be fittings down the stairs!  So, because he went in through the first floor balcony window, that is the way he had to be comings out.  Mummys friend, who had a Landrover and a trailer to pick up new Sofa, had to use the top of his Landrover as a platform to put new sofa on as he was lowered out the first floor window!

Buts when we do be gettings new sofa homes - he not fitting through any of our house doors, he beings too big.  Mummy do be sayings, surely, they don't make sofas so big they do not be fittings in houses!  Ooo yesings they doings!  Mummy had to call Mr Window Fitting men out (lucky her double glazing was fitted by a local firm - we do not be thinkings that Everest would be coming out within 2 hours).  Mr Window Men do be takings mummys front room window out the house, and sofa fits through - so sofa is in the living room!

We do be so excited and do bouncing around on new sofa!

Then we do be very tired and do sleepings on new sofa.

This be givings Mummy lots of chances to be doings drawings on the iPad thingy of us on the sofa!

Mummy do be keepings old sofa, as it does make the living room sofa heaven! She do be sayings that new sofa is beings hers!  Old sofa do being ours - but, it being silly because new sofa being so big he has rooms for alls of us, stretched out - we might overlap a little, but, there is room!
