 AngusDog Daze! - July 2008Casper

It has not been a particularly summery July, at least I haven't seen much of it if it has. Work continues apace in Ash Street and even Casper takes up residence there on occasion. The 'Prince of the Fells' does like to meet his loyal followers and he just loves all those hugs and kisses. Angus now prefers the quiet life but I'm sure he listens avidly to all Casper's tales of the fells - when he is awake that is! Read on to see the out-takes of our continued adventures in the Lake District.

'Oh no, how are we going to get past this? It's a sheep and it looks like it means business!'.

'I'll just have a little sleep up here while you are messing about...'

'...and a little stretch...'

'...ready? Right, I'll just unfurl my tongue...'

'...there, how's that? I've got no chance of getting it back in now!'.

'Agh, I can't hold myself! I'm sliding away...'

Mini-Casper rides on the back of giant Angus.

Connie: 'I want to drive, I want to drive, I want to drive...'.
Daddy: 'Oh, go on then.'

Connie: 'Abandon ship, every girl for herself - I've had enough of driving and I'm leaving my position immediately to leave this crate rudderless'.
Daddy: 'But Connie, you've only been doing it for 3.6 milliseconds!'.

The ghost of the headless Casper rides out (he is actually getting a drink!).

'No, I'm not coming. You carry on if you want, I'm staying put'.

Charge of the Light Brigade.

'Oof, that was deeper than I thought'.

Angus walks on water while Casper flounders.

'Now if I just sneak off over this way, he'll never notice'.

'WWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOFFFFFFFFF........!!!'. A perfect execution of the Casper 'flypast'.

'I'm gonna round me some sheep up'.

'Oo, err - on second thoughts, perhaps not. There's loads of them!'.

'Wainwright was correct - there's no way I'm climbing to the top of The Howitzer either! You're on your own dad'.

Dog Daze! Wainwright count (out of 214)

Angus: 214

Casper:188
