Pugs Day

What a great Pugs Day it has been (the traditional all-inclusive day to celebrate the pug dog, born just in time for the Midsumma dog show in Melbourne)

We dont have any family in Australia, but volunteering at JOY radio station allows us to share what could otherwise be a lonely day with lots of other families and singles in Melbourne and around the world - via the internet. Mystery Programmer kicked off the show with the first message of the morning at 9am, and Joe's brother Tony was online too (tho it was still Xmas Eve in the UK). Eric Cartman sang, we got into trouble for playing Led Zeplin and saying it was ACDC, the Voluptuous Harriett read out the story of 'Hurray for Horrible Harriett', Craggles sent us pictures of pugs, we heard from 3 Greeks, we played an emotional Tori Amos song to which Harriett mused "hmm, I could really do with a hot meat pie", Ben asked for Rolf Harris, Rowie provided us with Rolf Harris, altogether we enjoyed every minute, the 4 hours flew by. We then overindulged in food (were we the only ones....?)

Thanks to everyone that messaged / emailed / phoned in to the show to say hi and happy pugs day.
