At the end of our Sunday walk around the Castle Fraser estate in Aberdeenshire, Gail wanted me to 'pose nicely' with our friends M and J in front of the historic castle.
If you are thinking that I wasn't entirely cooperating here because I was admiring the fine architecture of this elaborate 'Z plan' structure which dates back to the 16th century and perhaps earlier, you would be mistaken.
More interesting by far was the prospect of demonstrating my footballing skills and thus living up to my famous (OK, famous in England, among people aged over sixty) namesake Nobby Stiles.
hehehe well done... you are a boy and more interested in boy stuff than modelling ;O)))
ReplyDeleteDid you score a goal or two, Nobby? That looks like an enormous football field to me and lots of space for you to run!

ReplyDeleteWell, Nobby, this begs the question, was the young fellow more willing to share his ball than the dog in the park??? Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx
Kick it! Kick it!
ReplyDeleteHow could you resist? Our Cardigan Corgi, Charlie, interrupted a junior high school girls' soccer team's practice by running onto the field and "running" the ball!
ReplyDeletethere is nothing better than a rolling ball and tis much more fun for you than an old and very beautiful castle.. Hope you got a chance to run. I am thinking there had to be a leash on all dogs in that beautiful place
ReplyDeleteWe hope you had fun playing with your new friend and their ball, Nobby.
ReplyDeleteNobby I, too, was admiring the fine architecture of this elaborate 'Z plan' structure which dates back to the 16th century and perhaps earlier,". Two great minds like ours....BOL BOL BOL
ReplyDeleteMandJ appeared to be amused by your pose.
Hugs Cecilia
It's all about priorities, right Nobby??

Just catching up on blogs after a long while away. You're looking quite the boy Nobbie. Oscar, your blog friend, got his French passport today. 35 euros and he's officially a le chien! Will make travel much easier and cheaper too!
ReplyDeleteWe agree, Nobby. You should never turn your back to a young boy who wants to have fun.

I'd be more interested in da ball too.
ReplyDeleteIt has hard to concentrate with so much going on.
ReplyDeleteIt would have been most impolite to have ignored the boy who wanted to share his ball with you. And, the castle will be there forever, the boy with the ball, not!
ReplyDeleteThat's so cute! Of course soccer/aka football to Europeans is way more interesting to you. than a castle!
ReplyDeleteDid you get to play some soccer? That looks super fun and a way to burn off some puppy energy!
