Military Mini-me...

Hello my friends....the other day Peter Tosh and I were at home minding our own business....when....*THUD*.....

...a parcel! Hmmm....I wonder what's inside.....its come all the way from Scotland from our very clever pal @jock_thedog who is the CED (Chief Executive Dog) of Tartan Terrors...

....Peter Tosh and I decided there was only one way to find out...

...I let Peter Tosh do the dangerous scissoring with his big safety paws...

...hmmm...just some terrier-orange packing paper visible on the initial inspection....

....seems to be a big Christmas cracker inside.....PUUUUULLLLLLLLL

....waaaaaaah! Look who it is....!! Do you recognise him?.......

...its a mini Colonel Rocky come to live at BT HQ....*whispers* we did not order the Colonel...we just saw him on Mr Jock's website and could not believe the likeness....

...I immediately took the Colonel to check up on his Twitter friends...i sent a message to @issiebissy so that Colonel Rocky would know that his mini-me had arrived safely at BT HQ...

....in the morning, the Colonel was immediately on duty....we did fox watch for an hour or two....

....he inspected my espresso for the typist....it passed....

.....we checked the bagel I had made for typist before his bike ride...it passed too....I think the Colonel liked the Nutella chocolate spread....

...Miss Lola was inconsolable at being relegated to Third Terrier....

....the Colonel was keen to see that typist was keeping healthy with all this cycling he is doing....vitamins and electrolytes all checked....

...and he was pleased to receive orders and reports from Dogs Trust......

...but , as ever, with the Colonel, he was keen for a mission...and so, after a full survey of local transport maps, he went off to assist the typist with picking up the new family car.....

....he arrived exactly two minutes before the train...a soldier is NEVER late....

...leaving just enough time to inspect local terriers....HUP, two, three, four...keep up at the back!

...he commandeered the pilot's seat nearest the exit and kept an eye on the carriage.....

...he had a vantage point from which to view the terrain.....

...Bookham: secured......

....hmmm...he was worried we might have been spotted.....so..

...he insisted on changing trains at Guilford to throw any enemy troops off their scent....

...and entered Hampshire under cover of morning fog...very cunning....

...and like every good commanding officer he made sure that supplies were reaching the front line....

....MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!....
...we are very excited to have the Colonel at BT HQ and say a big thank you to Mr Jock and his team at Tartan terrors...woof
