When we came in yesterday the Mop ran and got his dolly, he has had it from being little. What am I saying he is still little, he will always be a short house. I said to him your big friend should see you now with your dolly if he knew you had to take it to bed with you, he would laugh at you. The Mop said no he would not he is a nice dog, not like you, and he said you should not call me Mop, I will tell him you are still calling me Mop and he will sort you out and I will tell him your real name is Tess. I said I don't care he does not scare me.

This morning I said to John can we go to the beach today I don't want to go to the park, so we went to the beach.

It was freezing, I said to the Mop this is your fault it is more sheltered in the park.



The Mop said I am warm enough, I am going to run about and keep warm you can stand and freeze.

He went off chasing his ball and running all over the beach, every time he passed me he said I am hot.

Then he said I will have to sit in the snow to cool down, I was cold but I said it is warm with the sun out.

Before the Mop gets up in the morning I will ask john if we can go to the park. I will call the mop his proper name before we go in case that giant dog is there, not that I am scared of him.
