NEW PORCH, NEW FENCE AND NO INTERNET

Hello folks its me your doggy mate Dougal here again. Our Internet has been down for a week so i've been missing for a ten days now. Apparently some contractors working on the new Olympic site in London destroyed a tunnel containing some cables and so lots of communications disappeared. Anyway we are back on line now. Our new porch is up and in use (not sure if I like it as it's got more doors and I can't get used to it). I'm sure i'll get used to it - it's got another bed for me in it and a new water bowl so i'm well equipped. We have a new fence as well between us and our next door neighbours. The old one was rotten. Our neighbour organised it and paid for it but I think Grandad is making a donation towards it. Lastly the "guest" bedroom has been decorated and has a new carpet and new bedside lamps. Looks good !

THE HAUNTING IN CONNECTICUT

A bit scary in parts. After a family is forced to relocate for their son's health, they begin experiencing supernatural behaviour in their new home, which turns out to be a former mortuary. Rated 6/10

MAN RUNS AWAY FROM DOUGAL

Grandad and I were doing the canal walk yesterday nearly finished and I spotted this man walking toward us. Now I struck up my usual pose down on all fours and waited then ran towards him as per usual. He turned and ran away but I caught him and rounded him up as my sheepdog instincts tell me to do. He seemed scared, thought I was going to bite him. No chance. Grandad was shouting at him not to worry but when we got to him he said he didn't know what to expect. Has he never seen a dog before ??? Anyone can see i'm a real friendly boy.

BRONSON

Bronson is based on actual events and is about a British thug and troublemaker who somehow earned the title of Britain's most violent prisoner and who has been incarcerated for 36 years, 30 of which have been in solitary. The film is raw and violent. Rated 6/10
