    :smile::smile::smile::smile:
    Next year, will Lil Dora be back for aerial acrobatic sock spinning? And Missy with gymnastic bracchiating and flying jumps? And Foxie, with a discus spin?

      When it comes to Foxie, don’t forget her fabulous torso toss!!

        How silly of me! I hope she can forgive me! I was tired, dear Fox!

    Great fun and the old saying…”its not about winning, but participating that’s important”. They were all very good at their chosen sports, but I’m not sure that the first two judges had their minds focussed! One of my favourite photos of Missy is her spectacular dismount from the termite mound…..elegant and sporty too.

      Thanks, Carol for reminind me of that dismount which I think is gold medal worthy.

    I think everyone gets a gold medal! At least in my heart! :joy:

    Great blog.
    All winners in my book!
    I think Negra had a pre game snack and got so into it that she forgot the time……..

    Dusty, you and your cheering sports fans crack me up. This is just hysterical! I know Negra could have received a gold medal for speed skating. But, as Marianne pointed out, Neggie was lettuce-loading and got carried away. Honestly, I don’t know who’s funnier. The staff? The chimps? Or the blog commentators?

    Everyone is golden in my heart.

    Dusty, so clever, thanks. Oh and HRH only has to show up to qualify for a gold medal. Just so all the judges know for the next time.
