We just discovered something that Benny has himself discovered he likes...

This evening, we took a walk around our estate and there's a playground here. With no kids around, I asked my hubby whether we should see if Benny would go down a spiral slide. He then promptly and excitedly carried Benny up the steep steps (a bit slippery cos it had just stopped raining). Then, at the top of the slide benny did not understand what was going on...I tricked him into moving the first bit then my hubby gently shoved his bum forward.

Down he went, trying his doggest to "brake". It was funny cos by the time he was at the bottom (it was a short spiral slide) he was in the down position and a bit stunned. But he got up and was happy!!! Then he wanted to go again by going to the bottom of the steps. The second time round he cautiously stepped off on his own and loved the slide down...and the third time he practically launched himself off!

Ha! I think Benny is a potential adrenlain junkie...wonder if he'll enjoy a roller coaster ride....hmmmmm............. =P

There's a video on YOUTUBE of a kid's birthday party where they have one of those big blow-up slides, well, someone had a Pembroke Corgi and he took it over, pushing past the kids over and over climbing up the ramp to slide down the slide over and over and over, it's a lengthy video, really cute.

Hi thanks!!!
Benny doesn't pose all the time...but he does have the funniest expressions of intense concentration.

Singapore is a very green country. We have trees everywhere even though its a city state country all in one. Haha...its good for us because the whether here (near the equator) is hot and humid. We need as much shade as possible. :)

You would have had a blast listening to my Granny...she was from the mountains of Asheville, NC if you can imagine. She would start one of her old stories maybe like this-"We wuz settin' by the far(fire) on nite and ita (it had) been a'rainin...." She was a real corker!!
