I'm taking a break from the workroom this morning as I spent ALL DAY yesterday working on some new menagerie pullalong animals.
As you do.
In the end I was so completely engrossed that the animals were talking to me.
No really.
And I was answering them.
First off, pink piglet didn't want to wear a straw hat because he said it made him look like a cissy.
Then the seaside donkey wanted silk bows AND flowers AND ribbon rosettes on her hat, and complained that the holes for her ears were too small.
Then the fox terrior really kicked off and refused to wear either a hat or a saddle, and whipped the whole group of waiting animals into a revolutionary rabble so I had to separate them all.
I don't know what it is with terriors.......if there's trouble to be made they're always first in the queue.
Incidentally, Small Dog's accent is a soft west country burr, with overtones of Vicky Pollard.

I still have to put the finishing touches to the donkey, but when she's done I'll send you a photo.
BTW she sounds just like Patricia Routledge, just in case you were wondering...

Well a donkey with a posh hat like that needs a very superlative home, I'd say!

Honestly that dog. Any opportunity to play with the keyboard!
Yes...I know.
Pigs would look cissy in hats...the ones you know wouldn't be seen dead in a hat. The ones you know Delphi, are often seen dead since they are reared for sausages and are more likely to be seen wearing a garland of garlic!
Oh dear...that's done it...gone off in a huff...
Terriers are good at huffs! ;)
