Farewell to the Colonel....

*sigh*...we had to bid a fond farewell to Colonel Rocky this week....his family are back from their holiday and he was keen to get back to his headquarters to see them....

....Miss Lola will be very sorry to see him go....



.....although there was some discussion about who would get custody of the regimental tennis ball....

...the Colonel made his views known.....

The Colonel barks an order....



......which made Miss Lola get out the "big guns".......(note to self: clip claws tomorrow)

....the Colonel was briefly distracted by squirrel and/or fox manoeuvres in the garden...

....but he returned to insist on his tennis ball rights.....

Let's do this for an hour.....



.....there was some suspicion that this sustained battle wore the Colonel out....i insisted he have a nap....

.....Miss Lola was feeling quite pleased with herself....

.....until this morning...."Wot mean da Curnell haz gone ome?"....

....come back soon Colonel Rocky....we miss you at BT HQ...*salutes......rolls away regimental red carpet.....lowers flag*......


p.s....the day after the Colonel left, we sent the typist to ride in the Box Hill Sportive....after the race he met 6 times Olympic gold medal winning and 11 times world champion cyclist Sir Chris Hoy....

It's typist and Sir Chris Hoy!


...we think he might have been after that medal to add to his collection....BOL....what a nice man....
