Because Spud and his classmates finished their exams last week, this week they had a Christmas party! The lower class, or remedials were also invited.

Well we had a chuffin' smashing time, there were games to be played, trouble to get into, and best of all Father Christmas arrived!

To begin with we had a game of musical chairs, which Spud finished last, or went out first. Afterwards I thought we maybe could have tried harder, by shoving people out of the way. Next game was an egg and spoon race, again I figured the idea really was to complete the short course with Spud on a slack lead walking smartly at heel. So we took fucking ages, everyone else dashed round and didn't give a fuck about doing anything properly, so we put that out of our minds for the rest of the night.





After that I had to push a tennis ball around with a golf club, whilst trying to keep Spud from picking it up. Didn't win that one either.

Did OK at the moving dry peas with a straw game, but that was pretty crap and didn't really involve Spud.



We did do really well at the 'putting on the socks' game. I had to put socks on all four of Spud's paws and then walk him across the room. You got a point for each sock still remaining. We were the best at that, only ones to finish wearing all four socks!





Then Father Christmas arrived and Spud got an early Chrimbobs present, a bag of gravy bones! Just like kiddies parties there were a few tears, and once the youngsters left all excited and full of treats, they had the shits all over the pavement. Well maybe not exactly like kiddies, but similar.
