Happy Birthday to me!

Just thought I would let you all know that today is my 9th birthday and I’m having a lovely day. I have been for a nice cooling run with Alison & Kirsten around the lanes – it is so pretty with the late summer flowers in the hedgerows.

There does seem to be a plan afoot about a new friend for me – apparently it might be arriving next Tuesday……….I shall have to wait and see what it is, some kind of pesky puppy I imagine……

Ruben here – just received a picture of my bessie friend Marley – don’t we look good together?

See if you can spot the difference between us……I am the handsome one! My owners keep saying how nice two black labs look together and wouldn’t it be nice to have two of us – are they trying to tell me something?
Went to the beach the other evening at Widemouth – that was lovely all sunny and warm, great for a stroll – I am really lucky to live so close to the beach

We had more happy guests last week leaving great comments

BTW I am now a movie star – watch me on the Glebe House video
Let me know what you think! TTFN xx

Well new bed proving very comfy but beginning to feel a little worried as there seems to be a lot of talk of a new puppy – wonder if they are trying to soften me up!

My latest NBF Codi left at the weekend and life seems a little quieter without him dashing about but this weeks guests all seem very friendly towards me and I am getting a lot of pats…………

Latest places people are raving about are the Hidden Valley and the Otter Sanctuary nearby.

My owners took me to a country fair in Launceston on Sunday which was great as there were lots of black labs all like me – again there was a lot of talk about the best type of puppy food – should I be getting worried?

Well what a week we’ve had – very fun filled and full of laughter.
Storm & Sunset (the dratted cats) have managed to wiggle their way into one of the cottages with some very doting guests – guess they are being very spoilt, huh; still I have been treated to a new and comfy bed so am feeling very king-like and I get to stay in the big house!
Another little guest visited Exeter Cathedral this week and was very excited to have apparently found Jesus’ Granny amongst all the tombs!
This morning we had our own flock of sheep running all over the garden & woodlands, maybe we can rival the Big Sheep after all!
Well enough from me for now – do keep the comments coming tho’ xx:)

Hi
Had some great guest feedback from some doggie owners last week – Cookie’s owners said that the cottage was better than they expected and it was the perfect place to come back to at the end of the day! My owners are especially pleased with that comment!!
Pip’s owners said there was nothing to dislike as the accommodation was fantastic & the grounds excellent – couldn’t agree more!
So all that hard work is paying off for them……..

My movie debut is very imminent so do watch out for the video showing off Glebe House Cottages – actually Alison doesn’t do too badly but she is not as cute as me tee hee!

Well I had a great week with Marley – we had fun on the fab beach at Widemouth every night and spent our days lazing about in the lovely gardens my owners have so thoughtfully provided.
Had some amazing guests staying from Norway, Sweden and Ireland – a real continental mix – this week we have guests from The Netherlands ( they are a bit sad about the football) but its ok ‘cos they are playing ball with me and there’s no kicking!!
So everyone seems to be having a good time again this week…………you could always come and see us for yourself btw!

Today has been a grey day with a bit of mizzly rain – my owners say we should be pleased as the garden was getting terribly dry – so no run for me today although I did notice the golf clubs have just come home – apparently our local 18 hole Golf Course at Holsworthy is a really nice course to play, shame dogs aren’t allowed to accompany their owners tho’

I’m getting in a state of high excitement as my NBF (New Best Friend) Marley is coming to stay for a week tomorrow – he is another black lab and looks a lot like me, he even has a red collar too – wonder how many people will get us muddled up – tee hee!

Well getting messages back what a treat!
Thank you to everyone, will keep you posted on my latest activities – not so much today as my owners were busy sorting out the website again so I had to just lie about in the shade – it’s a dogs life!

I am continuing to enjoy this lovely hot spell of weather and so are our guests…………….they have been enjoying trips to Padstow on their bikes and paddling about on the beaches at Widemouth and Bude.
Last week we didn’t just have a dog staying for me to play with (the very mellow Wellington) we also had Herman the tortoise. I met him mooching about in the garden but he didn’t want to play and kept disappearing into his shell!
Well my owners are certainly getting the technology bug and getting all up-to-date with website stuff – quite impressed really!

Hi
I live at Glebe House Cottages and am the resident black labrador – you will usually find me snoozing in the sun or lounging in the main house. I do bark a bit but am very friendly!

My owners are very excited as they have just had a video filmed so that you will be able to have a virtual tour of my gardens and peek inside some of the lovely cottages – it will be posted very soon
