Things seen

[bunn]

1) A barn owl flying in the evening West over the Tamar river. We got a really good look at it as it went over.

2) Someone's very happy and naughty pig, out on the lam, turning over bins and munching happily on the contents.  Foster dogs & Az looked at the pig with extreme suspicion, but Brythen wanted to play with it. He wants to play with everything!

3) A lady that philmophlegm assured me confidently afterwards was Dawn French, who I automatically assumed was a lady who looked a lot like Dawn French.   I always assume that people who look like TV personalities are not really them. Not sure why.  Maybe I don't actually believe Dawn French is a real person.  Maybe something tells me that she only lives inside the telly.

It is a sad thing that Brythen and his pig friend are so far away from my ridiculous basset hound Sami, who also wants to play with EVERYTHING. Cats! Ducks! Turtles! They are all Sami's new best friends, they just don't know it yet! He and Brythen would get on like a house on fire, I bet.

The flapping ears and mad bouncing would be out of hand! :-D

I'm not sure I'd trust Brythen with a duck. I'd be worried he might grab it and whirl it about. Although he manages to play with the Bungles very gently, so I suppose I know he can play with much smaller animals!

I always assume that people who look like TV personalities are not really them.

However with sofas that look like TV sofas, you assume that they really are them. ;-p

Somehow, it's easy to believe that a sofa I knew very well might have later been employed as an actor - and because I knew it so well IRL, I somehow felt confident about it on telly.

For some reason it seems much less likely that someone I have only seen on TV might be a real human being and wander about the streets of Calstock :-D
