Maximus

Getting myself all ready fur autumn as apparently it duz be sum sort uv equinox fur dis today...who knew!

Annuver evening...annuver pub quiz...I dus despair...as you can see!

Went to a pub quiz last night...I found the whole experience riveting and told da hoomanz that I wud help out answering any questions spoken in da language uv barking...unfortunately da quiz man didn't speak this specialist language so I gave the crowds in da pub a demonstration!

@Bertie_the_BT We did Cragside yesterday it did be very sunny wiv lots of nice views. I did like it very much...and I was also given snacks there when de hoomanz did enjoy a wine or two in da cafe

Am on me holidays in Norfumberland to see the origins uv da great Border Terrier. Mr Max did inform me dat the humanz don't do much sightseeing unless it duz be from inside a pub or restaurant...he wasn't wrong...but at least dey duz give me the occasional snack!

It is wiv gweat excitement dat I duz announce dat me, Minnie de Patrerdale sister of imself Maximus az stolen iz X account! I did ave a number of months of instruction from da old BT on ow to not behave so I iz doing a terrier takeover so I can learn from his #BTPosse pals more

Earlier today I told me humanz to share this at an appropriate time 'it duz be wiv great sadness that I Max, az ad me last walk tuday. I instructed me humanz that I wanted sum last cuddles and den they called de vetty man to me ouse so I could av me biggest sleep yet.' Later palz

@BakodaBt Fanks pal. I az been spending me post race time finkin (an by finkin I duz mean lyin down with me eyes closed in long contemplation) about how many noms, toys an treats I can purchase ... it duz be a very exhaustin process!

@borderscouse Yay! You backed a winner! 🥳

Got me 'orse sorted in da National...it wuz like it was named specially fur me!

Been out fur breakfast today at a place called Emily's Formby. It duz be very nice and I have informed da humanz we will be returnin. @PattyScouse couldn't come with us az she duz not be fully vaciminated yet so I ad a bit of peace (an also a bit uv buttery toast) away from er.

In a Miss Minnie update it az been a very busy Xmas. I az been avoiding da pup az she follows me round wantin to bite me gentleman bitz (which duz be a very difficult mission az I wuz 'dun' at 6 mths) owever I was just startin to warm to er when she tried to steal me brekkie!

Erm dat duz be my favurite play toy Minnie...Wud you please leave Mr Mega Moose alone...it duz be bigger than you! *sighs loudly* I duz despair!

Erm wot duz dis be hoomanz! I did not agree to dis! Wot do you er name is Minnie...duz dat be coz I iz Maximus? Well I suppose she can stay...as she duz be sort uv named after me...as long az yu understand she can only stay because I said so...not because you want er to! *nods*

Last day uv me holibobs tuday so we ave made our way back home to Scouseland from Norfumberland thru da Yorkshire Dales. It duz be very pretty and I did see a fancy lookin bridge at Ribblehead followed by a waterfall and then a drive along a gated road filled with sheeps!

Add annuver day out in Norfumberland today. We did go to a place called Lindisfarne Island where u can only visit when da water tidey fing does not be in. It duz seems a bit rude to only visit when u know sumfin is out but I did trust da hoomans to know what duz be best.

Been to a place called Cragside it dus ave really long walks which da hoomanz did insist on taking me on even though I wus more interested in avin snacks in da cafe. I did owever find time to ave a bit uv a sit down in da formal gardens so I could rest me paws fur a bit.

Been to a place today called Kielder Water where I did ave a boar ride in order to spot sum trees I could use to send me peemails on! Dis was den followed by the humanz usual stoppage at a local pub for small Whisky. Dis time they chose a fantastic pub called da Holly Bush Inn.

Been out to da Glanton Show where I watched some duck herdin an terrier racin. I would ave got involved in terrier racin but for da fact dat at the age uv 11 (an a big bit) da hoomans fried Haggis an chips was much more interestin to me than chasin after a stuffed toy on a rope!

Annuver tuff day on holibobs. Dis time the hoomanz took me on a walk to National Trust Wallington. It be really dog friendly so da hoomanz insisted I did lots of walking which was exhaustin on me paws but I particularly liked the walled garden with its flowers dat I could sniff!

Had enuver dat out to Scottishland..nuff said...
