Dear peeps out in Blogland,
we are Samson and Delilah, puppies wot live in a little house on the side of a hill. We have found out that today is Easter for some people, and it’s next week for our island of Corfu where we live. We knows this ‘cos The Missus sez her son is eating an easter egg with smarties in, an’ she is jealous. We don’t know wot is a smartie. Her son lives in a big City called London where there are lots of sick peeps. He has to live there ‘cos his partner is a teecher an has to look after children of key workers. We don’t know why they doesn’t live in Corfu like wot we do. He does stuff on ‘puters so we guess it runs in the family. We finks we might be good at ‘puterising wen we grow up, as we are her children too. Samson did sits on the Missus’ lap yesterday to see if he cud ‘pute but she sez he messed up her writing when his paws went on the keyboard. Wot is that about? Enyway The Missus and The Boss with the furry face don’t come from Corfu and don’t speke our Greek language very well like wot we do. We is lerning their language very fast ‘specially the word “No” which means “Yes” in Greek, so to us is very confoosing. Just to make sure The Missus also yells “Ohee” (Oxi) at us in case we don’t understand the word “No”. Which is even more confoosing because she is shouting “Yes” and “No” at the same time. The Vet sez “Ohee” is the most important word for us to lern. Their language is English and in that language we is called “Dog”. There is an ancient story that way back before man even wrote things down he told stories as there wos no telly. One day back in those very old days, before even The Missus wos born, at almost the beginning of time, Wolf spoke to man an sed if you let us sleep by your fire under your roof and keep us warm in the cold, cold winter, we will help you hunt and help you look after your family an’ animals. So man agreed. In those days going out hunting was dangerous and man did not know if he would come back. So their wives and family would say “God be with you” each time he went hunting. So year after year God went with man to hunt and eventually Man realised that God was indeed with him but it was Wolf. So in the honour of Wolf who wos man’s best friend, man named him Dog which is God written backwards. So every spring when the buds are bursting in the trees , the green grass starts shooting, and animals come out of hibernation Man and his friend Dog celebrate the birth of new life in so many ways. Not just with eggs. Man usually gets together with his family an’ Dogs and has a celebration, but this year a cruel thing has happened, and man can’t do that no more, he has to stay at home. So we say if you can’t cuddle your family cuddle your doggy or pussy cat, cos we kept our promise to man from all those years ago. Love to you all at Easter time wherever you are and whoever your God is
