Since being awarded le Veterinary de la Séance Degree with Distinction,
and being made Professeur Emeritus, ah ‘ave a lot of speaking engagements.

Lark this morning for example.
Muzzeur was introducing me to le large crowd ‘oo ‘ave gathered to ‘ear what ah ‘ave to say…

First she clear ‘er throat and then – ‘My son need no introduction’ she say…
At least I assume that ees what she say, ah am not actually listening.

She bow to le audience but ah am too  busy playing with le Uncle to give mah speech.

Le Uncle and ah were ‘aving a quick game of ‘ad eet up to ‘ere to settle mah nerves.
Ah do not think anyone notice. We are ‘idden be’ind Muzzeur’s big botterm.

Mah friend Gollamb ‘as come to listen and ‘ee ees all ears.

Muzzeur can ‘andle le introductions while ah score le points.
All eyes are on Muzzeur.

Gollamb ‘as brought ‘is sister Muslamb along with ‘im. She ees weird.
‘Get on with it’ she yell. She ees le rude sheeps.

Muzzeur ees nearing le end of ‘er speech.
Considering eet was all about me ah am surprised eet was so short.

‘Excuse moi Le Uncle’ ah say, ‘ah am due on stage’.

Suddenly Muzzeur ees distracted. Le Uncle seize le opportunity to score le point in le game.

Suddenly ah ‘ave forgotten all about giving le speech.

Beside, Muzzeur seem to be enjoying ‘er moment in le spotlight.

And quite frankly ah can not let Le Uncle win one more game of ‘ad eet up to ‘ere.
