Dear diary
I am sorry I didn’t write last week but mum was in Scotland and dad was working away too so Aunty Vicky was looking after us. Aunty Vicky is cool as she makes great beds, gives us loads of food and best still doesn’t make us do any work. But she hasn’t got a computer I can borrow so I couldn’t write.
So last week was fab, hanging out with my mates, oggling the girls, working on my mud pack and generally just dossing about. Then mum came home and announced we’ve got to work hard as the army man is coming next week.
I’ve decided I might run away before this lesson from hell. The man sounds horrible. Mum has been making me do loads of trot, halt, walk, trot, halt, trot – yawn! But worst still she’s come over all mean and if I don’t go the instant she tells me she pulls me up and then asks me again by hitting me on the bum with the whip!! I am so offended! When did she get so bossy? She says that the army man won’t be very impressed unless I try really hard and am very “off the leg”. What does “off the leg” mean? I have four of them so which one am I supposed to be “off”? If I throw all four off the floor at once we’ll fall over? I am so confused.
Last weekend uncle john and Aunty Mary came to visit. Now I don’t think Aunty Mary likes me as I made her fall off – it was an accident but I thought it was funny. So this time mum said uncle john could ride me - he was cool, no control at all and he just let me whizz around the ménage really really fast – mum was sort of laughing or maybe crying but I thought it was ace!
Yesterday mum made me do loads of transition and stuff again and then we went for a little walk up to the field. That was nice, mum was being very brave and we went on our own. I like that as mum talks to m loads and makes me feel very important. She is funny though. Today a big thing was flying low in the sky making load of noise, mum kept telling me it was ok and stroking my neck – like I was scared of that thing? Seriously it was in the sky why would it worry me? Now nasty yellow things creeping up on us in the grass are scary but that thing – piff! No worries. Mum however obviously thinks I’ve been spending too much times with poof bags and thought I’d run like a baby. Not a chance! I am a man not a mouse.

So what do you think I should do about army man? Seriously what with this “off the leg” stuff and the prospect of doing star jumps for an hour I am really wondering if doing a runner is the best option? Fit mare says he’s nice but then he’s a man and she probably spends the whole time looking at his bum – she is a long legged beauty but a total tart. So will one of you come and fetch me, let me stay at your pad just till he’s gone? I’m seriously thinking being in the dog house might be more fun than being killed by some man treating me like I’m a squaddie?
HELP!!

Welcome back Hovis we missed you. Good luck with the Amry man! Look forward to reading you news again soon. When are yo going to write Hovis Dairy and have it printed. It would make a wonderful book.
 
Harry says:

"Hovis, get a grip! You said you're a man not a mouse, so just face it, the evil army man is going to make you do star jumps and press ups and squat thrusts and he will shout ONE TWO ONE TWO and LEFT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT, PICK THEM FEET UP and he'll make you DOUBLE, which is really really hard.

The only way to avoid all of this is to stand on his toe as soon as he is close enough, and he will go away and never come back."
 
So glad you are back online Hovis. I was so conerned last Friday that I posted asking where you were but nobody answered me
