MightyShark goes boing!


Apologies, dear readers, for the lack of updates, but things have been a little busy this past week and we have found no time to blog. On Wednesday, we went to the Shaftesbury and Gillingham Agricultural show and, whilst the weather was not too friendly in the afternoon, still managed to have a good time. In the morning, the dog took part in his all-time favourite activity, terrier racing. He was so keen that after every race, he ran back to the traps to try and get in again so he could run another race. He ran too many, got exhausted and therefore came a rather poor 4th in the final. But he got a big rosette saying "3rd" anyway. Twinkletoes was miffed, as she wanted another champion "1st" rosette for her collection.

Having thoroughly bumped their way around the bumper cars, Twinkletoes and MightyShark both went on the Spiderman bungee in the pouring rain. T bounced higher than everyone else but couldn't quite manage a somersault, despite valiant efforts. MS was rather worried at first, but soon got into the swing of it (rather literally) and kept shouting "Woooo, this is so giving me a wedgie!" (Can't take him anywhere...) I didn't manage to get a picture of either of them at the top of their bounce. The above picture was my best effort. Sorry about the slightly unfortunate vista in the background. Ahem.

  1. If you hadn't pointed out the problem with the background in the photo I wouldn't have noticed it - and in fact didn't notice it until I had enlarged the photo to full screen and saw the crack in your lens. I can't help but think that this problem might have been solved by the very apparatus she was selling tickets for - as demonstrated by MightyShark King of the Wedgies.
