Say hi to Suzie

Photo: Suzie rests on the couch Hey everyone, this is Suzie. She’s a retired racing greyhound (her racing name was Emtpy Sapphire) who lives in the UK with her mum, ‘Hampshire Hippy’. There are lots of photos of Suzie on Flickr.

My mum has been talking about adopting an ex-racing greyhound. I wouldn’t mind as long as s/he didn’t want to sleep in the bed with us - there wouldn’t be any room. A greyhound is a big, long dog!

Dad said mum would have to move out if she wanted a greyhound. I don’t want mum to move out. Who will take me for walkies?

Poppy’s secret

Photo: Poppy rushes away from the computer before she is discovered!My friend Poppy has a secret. She’s writing a book. But she doesn’t want anyone to know.

Poppy has been working on her book for about 3 months now. It’s an autofidography. She even has a publisher interested (Pluto Press).

Poppy only gets to work on her book when she stays with her stepdad Chris (my uncle Chris), because her mum doesn’t have a computer for her to write on. She hasn’t even told Chris about it. She wants to surprise him and show him how clever she really is. So when he came home from work early the other night, he nearly caught her writing on the computer. But she quickly closed down her document and pretended to have been sitting on the keyboard to keep warm. He wasn’t at all suspicious.
