Alien Dog

I don’t quite know what’s happened with Hound today. We’ve got the men in digging a poxy big trench down the front drive for the replacement water supply pipe. The mini-digger is fairly noisy, and of course it means we’ve got people at the front and side of the house.

Normally, Hound will bark if anyone even sets foot on the driveway, yet with all this going on, she’s actually laying at my feet, ignoring everything. It’s most bizarre, and I think it’s quite possible that aliens have come down, abducted Hound, and left us with a milder copy.
