It's been a busy morning for the young collie mischief makers, Florian and Hector McCormick Ede....

Florian: "Oi, Hector, I think I've got a plan"
Hector: "Oh, hope it involves destroying things and escaping before we get caught red-pawed?"

Florian: "Let me shut my eyes and think this through really carefully"
Hector: "Take your time..."

Florian: "Right, got it!"

Hector: "Okay, whisper it in my ear"

Florian: *Whisper, whisper....*
Hector: "The washing on the line?! Oh, I'm liking this"

Hector: "Shit, he's watching. We're busted!"
Florian: "Just look innocent.  Remember, butter wouldn't melt :-)"



And so it continues.  Day after day.....
