When is a Twig not a Twig?

We did some shopping in M & S at Guiseley yesterday afternoon. Oh! go on - I know it was Sunday and all that, but the first person we bumped into in the store was none other than the Rev Barry Miller, who had been preaching at the morning service!

As we left the store I remarked to Dot on how near the car next to me had parked, and was making vague mutterings about thoughtless drivers, when who should we see approaching the said car but Rev. Rod Anderson. He and Pat had also been in M&S.

After leaving M&S we called round to see Ben & Hannah. The original plan had been for a joint dog walk in St Ives, but owing to Ben's late night/early morning and the fact that they were disturbed by Paul knocking on their door in the early hours, having been accidentally locked out by Simon, the joint dog walk didn't take place.

We did however meet a new member of the Martin household. [Here we are - we've arrived at the explanation of the headline] This was another miniature pinscher of about 7 months called "Twig". I didn't have my camera with me, so no photos of her yet. She was quite timid, and obviously very overawed (if not a little scared) of Ruby, but by the time we were ready to leave she had at least approached Ruby and realised that although Ruby was much larger than her she wasn't really a threat.
