Socks

I love socks. They smell so good, and they are so easy to find. There is the big, oh what do they call it? Laundry bucket. Yes that is it. The laundry bucket. I do not think much of the name, but I do approve of what can be found inside. Everything smells so nice.

Anyway, socks. Marvelous things. I just love taking them out of the laundry bucket, they feel so nice on my teeth. A certain amount of speed is required though. Joanna does not approve of my fascination and will try and stop me! Can you believe it? She even takes them from me and puts them into a big loud round machine called a washing machine. Oh, it makes me angry.

The best socks of course, can be found on Joanna’s feet. Trust her to keep them for herself. Relieving Joanna of her socks takes real skill and patience. You have to wait until she is distracted. I have found out from numerous attempts that you are more likely to succeed, when she is sitting down.

Then the real test begins. She must not know what I am doing. If she so much as senses my gentle touch she rebukes me! Therefore, I have to be stealthy and very quick. She must not detect my teeth or mouth until the operation is complete. And the socks are safely retrieved between my teeth.

This is usually followed by a game of chase at which point I can safely say, the operation is a complete success!

If there are no socks to be found, I have discovered that the TV remote works just as well. Especially when Strictly is about to start!
