Disco 'Dale

I don't know what the winter's like where you live, but here in the south of England during the winter it's pretty dark from around 4:30 pm until around 8am the following morning, which means that two of my walk a day during the week tend to take place under cover of darkness.

Now if you lot are anything like me you'll love sniffing around in the undergrowth, lagging behind your mum or dad to wait for that pretty little lady or handsome young dog to catch up with you, and playing ball even though it's pitch black- you know the kinds of thing I mean I'm sure.

Anyhow, as I am quite dark in colour, mum sometimes finds it hard to see where I'm hiding (yeah mum, that's the idea, durr!), so she bought a cool little flasher to go on my collar to keep track of me.



Pretty cool, huh? Anyway, I thought it made me look like a bit of a "Disco 'Dale", so I got mum to get the "Oggz" lights out of the bedroom so we could recreate a nightclub feel in the living room. Mum & dad got these for Christmas & they are so cool. They are made or nice soft plastic, change colour all the time to hold your interest & are just the right size for grabbing & running round with in your mouth. I think that's why they mostly stay in the bedroom (where I'm not allowed).

I'm flashing at you here, but it's a bit too light to see the full effect!


And now it's a bit too dark. I think the lighting technician at this disco needs firing!


I'm off to cruise the dancefloor for a laydee.

I guess I'm not as brave as you are Oscar! I don't really like the dark. I want my people near me to chase away the boogie man!
