Wheelie Wednesday - Bailey on Scruffs!

Hi everyone, Bailey here!
As you know via Sis, Miss Judy last week, Scruffs is on!!!
I'm entering for sure but as a mongrel, what is my best profile...
Or, should I enter in another catogory???
What about my intelligence re advanced 'Wheelie' studying...My desire to travel...
My superior cooking skills...
And, my love of Sport via TV watching...
Mother's no help - Grr.
All advice will be welcomed, as the dead line is this Friday!
Till next time, keep paw happy!

Bye-de-Bye,

Wheelie Wednesday - Bailey & Judy makes Pancakes!

Hi everyone, Bailey here, AND me, Judy!
As you can see, I've, we've taken to cooking.
Yesterday was Shrove Tuesday, Pancake day, Fat Tuesday, Mardi Gras & Carnival - whatever, it was the day before Ash Wednesday & the start of Lent - that's today!
For those that observe religious thingy bobs, not Mistress for sure; that means 40 days of fasting or trying to give up something one wants big time, like chocolate or alcohol.
Now, there's was no chance, that, you know who, will go Tea-Total.
Or Miss Foxy will give up her superiority towards me.
Ouch, SHE wheelie wheeled me!
Judy here: He deserved it!
But we did all get together as a family, and follow the custom of a celebratory feast.

I collected the best eggs from Miss Henny Penny's cage, HE wanted to use the cheapo ones...In the end we used up both & all the milk in the house.
Opps! None was left for Mummys breakfast
I tackled the Lemons & Oranges...Bailey: And I did the serious work like beating the eggs...And heating up the brand new, non-stick pan...Mistress, then insisted, heavens knows why, on taking over from me.
Shucks, I was having such fun!
And, as she, seemed sadly, unable to do two tasks @ once; ie cook & take photo's; I can't show you the finished pancakes.
We, however, enjoyed them with freshly squeezed Lemon & Orange juice & sprinkles of sugar.
Judy :They were great; till, Mummy reminisced about a fancy variation, she'd tried once.
She made wholewheat [brown] pancakes & filled them with lemon curd & creme fraiche, before pouring Limoncello, an Italian liqueur, she'd brought back from Rome over them!
Grrr!
That Sis of mine always has to have the last word!
Till next time, keep paw happy!

Bye-de-Bye,

Foxy
love & wheelie wishes,

Postscript from Bailey!
I did indeed find a Valentine!
Sweet little wheelie miss Sally May, she maybe small but if she likes me...

Wheelie Wednesday - Bailey seeks Romance!

Hallo all!
With Valentines Day looming I have a dilemma.
Who to send my romantic greeting too!
Shhh - don't tell anyone but you see, I don't have a 'wheelie' girlfriend!
Most of the terrier pups are already paired off.
But, I don't look like an Airedale or a WFT like precious little Miss Judy.
I'm a 'wheelie' mongrel.
Mistress says that it doesn't matter, my cute black button nose & big brown eyes will win hearts a plenty...
I've got my pressie & Valentines card @ the ready...
Any recipients out there???
Till next time, keep paw happy!
Bye-de-Bye,

Wheelie Wednesday - Bailey Better & Busy!

Hallo All!
You'll be pleased to know I'm back on my paws after my nasty bout of 'Wheelie' Flu - that Swine Flu is nothing in comparrision.
It goes against my stuffing BUT have to admit that the Foxy Miss did good as a nurse - kept the hot toddy's flowing nicely!
Shame, she doesn't have a cure for Mistress's forgetfulness.
You wouldn't believe the mess she made looking for her mislaid keys.
She even emptied her shredded paper basket!
Ever my helpful self, I was on floor sweeping duties yesterday...While she relaxed with coffee & finished this rather unique Jig-Saw, one I had especially had made for her... As Sir Woodstock would say of himself "Handsome looking fellow!"
Till next
time, keep paw happy!
Bye-de-Bye,

Wheelie Wednesday - Nurse Judy Reporting!

Hi, it's me Judy!
It's been simply ages since I had a word with you all.
I hope everyone's well & keeping paws warm this cold snowy Winter.
We're having lots more white flurries today!
But unlike Bailey last week, I'm wisely NOT looking outside.
He wishes now, he'd not tried to catch snowflakes on his tongue, as instead, he's caught a Cold - mustn't laugh, just quietly girly giggle.
Naturally being a boy, he claims it's much more serious - Wheelie Flu!
And, he's taken to his or rather Mummy's bed with a raft of tissues...
Remembering my 'virtual' nursing training by experienced WFT Head Nurse Asta, I donned my best Florance Nightingale look & delved in to the family Medicine Chest...I've even taken his temperature & professionally put the thermometer under his tongue...He protested, but I said I could have put it elsewhere!!!
My conclussion is - he'll live.
Since Sir Woodstock thoughtfully suggested Bailey might need lots of Vitamin C to aid his recovery, I've set to work...
Must dash, as am off to take him his hot toddy.
Aren't, I, just the very best Sis, anyone could ever have???
And, it's not the first time I've nursed HIM back to good health!
I'll remind of that again, when he is back on his wheels.
Till next time, keep cosy!
Foxy love & wheelie wishes,

True Colours Thursday - SNOW WHITE!

Now, you may recall that in the Autumn I took Master Buttons advise and insisted grumpy Skipper, as befitting his SNOW WHITE Polar Bear heritage, hibernate for a few months in hope of improving his temperament.
With Wheelie Bailey, his best Buddys help, we managed to shove - err, Sorry - stow him away under the stairs, with the promise to wake him in time for the Holiday Festivities...Personally, I would have preferred him to sleep on and on and on
And the recent Winter weather suggests he should have!
But, a Bear's Word is his Bond, so we woke him up on Christmas Eve!

His first thought, was not 'Thank-you 'as I had bear hoped, but a very private word with Bailey...It seemed Skipper refreshed, had decided to abandon his dark, somewhat menacing 'Blues Brother' shades , however, as he is short sighted he desperately needed new glasses!
Fortunately Mother was @ hand with a few spare pairs for him to try...He finally settled on one and agreeably donned his Christmas pawty hat too...Maybe, he is a 'new' SNOW WHITE bear after all - only paw time will tell!
Hugs,

Wheelie Wednesday - Bailey puts Skipper to Bed!

Hallo All!
Remember me?
In case you've been wondering what had happened to me, I've been away to late Summer 'Wheelie' School.
As you know I'm trying to improve myself, so I took a short course on 'Bear Management' as my home is swamped with the blighters.
And, I've quickly had to put my newly learned skills to work too, sorting out snooty Sir Woodstock & Skipper!!!
You see, Skipper wasn't sure he needed or wanted to go to have a long enforced sleep, just because Woodstock said he did.
Now, I didn't like doing it, not one bit as it went against my wheels.
But for once, I sided with his lordship!
I explained to Skipper that all Polar Bears have a period of hibernation and that there was a nice spot under the stairs where he could rest for a while & renew his strength
And, I promised to wake him up in time for Christmas.
Eventually, he agreed, I saw him safely to the door...
Then, put up the notice he'd written, so he wouldn't be disturbed...
All went very quiet, so after a little while, I sneaked a peek inside...
With Skippper asleep, it'll just be down to me to keep Woodstock in line!
Till next time, keep paw happy!
Bye-de-Bye,

Wheelie Wednesday on Friday - Bailey's Gotcha Day!

Hallo All, it's me!
And, a VERY significant day it is too.
Yes, it's a year ago that Mistress Blue came to my rescue.
She had been wanting a 'Wheelie' for ages & had even commissioned a pup, but before that stuck-up Miss WFT Judy arrived, I got my wheels in the door - Yes!
Now - as even, after a year, my 'puter skills are poor, I'm repeating my initial 'Wheelie' post for newcomers so they can appreciate the importance of to-day.

"Hallo everyone, it's Bailey here!
Well, that's my new name & I quite like it!
My adopted mistress, Blue said as I've been such a good boy - I'm lulling her into a false sense of security but please don't tell her - that I can have a word with you all.
And, in honour of the occasion I've got a silk bandanna to wear.
Hey!
Don't I look smart,?
I give you my handsome side profile first...
And, front, so I can chat away more easily...
The last weeks, been one of up & downs me, I can tell you!
On my very first remembered outing into the Outside World, my 'Wheelie' brakes failed & SOMEONE let go of me & I sped away down the road, eventually coming to a bumpy halt in a yard.
I waited & waited for THEM to come & retrieve me.
But, no one came, till this lady stopped to speak to me.
Then SHE left me too!
SHE did promise to return but I wasn't sure.
This me then...
However, SHE did come back & then blow me down, if SHE left me again all on my lonesome!
I was pretty scared by that stage, especially when some big BOYs with their own two wheels came by & peered @ me.
They threated to take me for something called a 'Joy Ride' - it didn't sound too joyful for me, they way they laugh & poked me!
I played dum & was that relieved when they rode away because SHE came back.
SHE scooped me up & carried me off.
Boy, were my wheels & I relieved!
SHE said I could stay with her, til THEY came for me.
I wasn't sure I wanted THEM too by then!
THEY had deserted me after all!
In truth my memories of my past life are very hazy, I think I was so traumatised by recent events, I blanked them out - all I remember is a dark, dark space & my mis-adventure in the daylight!
Anyway, THEY didn't come for me, dispute a Advertising Campaign.
So after a while, SHE said I was staying with her & her name was Blue.
I was very relieved, that was till SHE gave me a bedbath!
The indignity of it!!!
And, worse still, whilst doing it, SHE asked me - was I girl?
A GIRL, indeed!
I was mortified.
No way, I must have has the OP - I am all boy!
With my sex firmly sorted, we had to decide on a name for me.
My makers tag, says created by Mulholland & Bailie.
Per their web-site, I'm not their latest 'Wheelie' model either.
After a brief discussion, we settled on Bailey!
I think life's going to be just fine from now on.
I'll tell you about my new companions next time.
Til then, keep paw happy.
Bye-de-Bye!
Bailey"

And, a year on, life is GOOD in this Bear dominated household.
I may not get to post every Wednesday, as have to compete with Judy.
And his lordship, Sir Woodstock guards his blog space well too.
But, it sure beats kiddy abuse & a life on the streets!
I'm one content Wheelie!
Am off to ask for cake & icecream for tea for everyone, so we can celebrate my Gotcha Day in style.
Till next time keep paw happy!
Bye-de-Bye,

Wheelie Wednesday - Bailey's Garden Despair!

"Hallo All, Bailey here!
I suspected I was not going to get to post today!
His Lordship Woodstock, does like to go on so, about his precious Hug!
And, I ask you, who many bears can a 'Wheelie' pup live with???
Anyway, following Miss Autumn's lead, I thought I should go out into the garden this morning & check on my Geraniums, that I had over Wintered indoors.
Mistress Blue is not green fingered!
LOL!
More kiss of blackdeath!!!
Subsequently, they are not doing well...
The best pot is still in in the kitchens lobby, as she can't help but remember to water it, so it's blooming well...
After seeing all the delights of Autumns well tended domain, I despair.
Here, the only things that flourish are self setting Aqualigia's...
Icelandic Poppies...
Brambles...
And, Dandilions, big time...
One thing for sure you can always tell the time here...
Till next time, keep paw happy!
Bye-de-Bye,
