Just to let you know my piece for The Guardian on the Virginia Tripawds Pawty will be in the paper (and online) next Saturday, 1st July.
(not tomorrow, as I'd told a few of you. Got a bit ahead of myself, sorry...)
I'll be posting a link under Tripawds in the News
(and waiting anxiously for your response... 
)

Love the excitement and butt wagging & myrtles stuffy showing it off! Cute! I had a Purrkins lay on the lap top soooo a bit of delay there !The fun continues! Myrtles collar I love it!

I SO admire Sally's ability to remember to video! We didn't take many either other than the interviews with folks, which I SWEAR we will do something with soon!

Now you know very well, Sally, how much I loathe posting pictures of the girls. But, just for you...
It's true that they did they did get a little neglected as the deadline loomed. The Megastar was pretty good actually. She mostly just slept it out.
But with The Pie, I'm afraid, I had to resort to bribery.

Awww Meg love the pictures of Meg & Elsie. Now I had to bribe Snickers when I got home. She was more interested in the smells on my bag than me. Elsie pie I sure hope you didn't steal all those treats like Snickers does 😉

Michelle the "Pie" never steals! She may borrow things on occasion but sweet Pie could never steal! Clare I'm so looking forward to your article! I know it will be sensational! And after browsing this entire thread I have now figured out why I didn't get a sit down with Sally! She was a moving machine taking pictures and videos! She never stopped apparently! I'm ready for a "do over" of the entire weekend! Thanks to all for sharing their pictures and videos so I can relive it over and over!
So Meg, kudos to you for just anpping while your Mom was busy trying to squeeze a week of florious adventure into about one hundred words!!! Maybe it was a few more than that, but it probably felt that limited to her!!
But Megastar,sometimes being sucha good girl just doesn't reap the same rewards as being just a bit persistently annoying! 🙂 And clearly Elsie Pie has mastered that art splendidly!! 🙂 Look at that vucket of duck treats!!! OMD!!! Bigger than Elsie Pie! And I KNOW she tip toed over to it so she wouldn't wake you.....er.....as a courtesy of course......not because she wanted to eat the whole thing all.by herself!!! 🙂 🙂
A d Clare, we can never, ever have enough pictures of these two......EVER!!!
Ans Michelle, love that Snickers doesn't wait to be handed treats.....she just foes gets them in her own!! 🙂
