The Train to Bath

Yesterday was a day of ups and downs. It started well, went through moments of terror and then finished on a high of chewie treats. The Owner took me to the station yesterday and I have never been to one of them before so I was particularly excited. I was a little confused at first as The Owner put me on a lead, I normally only wear a lead in the pub (pub rules) and it was quite early in the day for that. But then we jumped in a car and went to The Station. I use capital letters to add an air of gravitas. There were many posts all over the platform for me to wee up and I did my best! I didn't want to appear greedy and wee on them all but there was a group of small shiny posts all together so I thought I would just do them and call it a day. Well I've never seen a zimmer frame before and I felt Old Lady Hoomun made far too much of it to be honest! Fortunately the train arrived with a great deal to say on the matter and that was really quite exciting. Actually it was quite terrifying and a little bit of wee dribbled out which was a bit embarrassing. Station Master was a bit rude as well he said to The Owner, "Keep that dog away from the gap"!!!!! THAT DOG????? Does he not realise I was born on Lord Bath's estate? I have breeding! And I can assure you that I have no intention of falling down there, so I hopped in a particularly nimble fashion on to the train, just to prove a point. Well it was quite nice on the train, lots of hoomuns and they were all very friendly, apart from The Owner who just grumbled a lot but that was normal. Then, from nowhere, it happened!! "Bing bong bing! All those for Bath get off here!" Bath?!?!?!? Is that where we were going? All this way just to have a Bath!! Have I been duped???? Well I wasn't going to get off there, so I tried to hide under the seat. The Owner dragged me out from under there and lifted me onto the platform. I was not going to make this easy for him so he had to drag me across the platform and I left a long line of claw marks behind me. All the way to the stairs! I don't do baths!!! Well I think the bing bong bing hoomun was only teasing as we didn't have a bath, instead we went to a hotel for lunch and met Lady Chocolate Lab and Lady Chocolate Lab Owner so I thought it was a good day out on reflection. When we got back to the cottage last night The Owner got his post and did his usual mantra of head in hands and saying "How much?" but there was a big parcel there and I could see my name on it. My friend called BH7 had sent me some more chewie sticks!!! I like my friend from BH7! I just wish I knew who it was!
