A Great day for the Girrls!

CONGRATULATIONS JULIA GILLARD!  FIRST AUSTRALIAN WOMAN PRIME MINISTER!

The Common Shrew says to all our daughters and grand-daughters ' I told you girls can do anything! '

Meanwhile, the Wiz says 'I just can't put my paw on it, but I really like the look of that woman!'

Nigel's Nightie: No. 2 in an occasional series entitled 'Smokin' Jackets'

OK I know there's some prestidigitation involved in this peignoir but the chance of a guest appearance from celebrity like Nigel from Life with Dogs was just too tempting!

The Wiz had been hoping for a green velvet number with a cravat, but a dog can dream (as long as it doesn't involve too much howling and those annoying running movements with the legs !)

Wiza warmer : No.1 in an occasional series entitled 'Smokin' Jackets'.

'You can judge a society by the way it treats its animals' - Gandhi.






















.. and you can sort of judge our society by the way some of its people treat some of their animals.

In this occasional series, you're invited to admire some of the best of them, in all their sartorial splendour ... or was that silliness? Leave a comment if you want to submit a photo of your best-dressed greyhound in an excellent bed-jacket, and the Shrew will put the best on the blog.

NB. No 'fancy dress' (and try to keep the fluff bunnies out of those bedrooms shots, she may be 'Common' but an old girl has her standards!)
