Preparing for Halloween and Dad's Barkday

Woof everyone!

Regular readers of my blog should know by now that every year, without fail, the Missus will dress me up in some whacky fancy dress costume. These ‘traumatic’ episodes started in 2007.

Here’s a recap of my past years’ Halloween costumes.

My first ever Halloween costume when I was in China in 2007. I was supposed to be a ghoul or a Demonic Dog… or something?!? Whatever.

For Halloween 2008, we were temporarily living in a hotel in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. The photo above shows Yours Truly dressed as an evil wizard who ate humans and ‘accessorised’ their bones.

By 2009, we had moved to Italy. Meet ‘Count Dogula’. Apparently I had an insatiable appetite for eyeballs!

2010's Halloween, during our second year in Italy, took a turn for the bizarre! Before I knew it, I had been ‘bestowed’ a strange new title. I had become ‘LORD Gaga’. “Gaga ooh la la… want your bad romance!”

Last year, I was supposed to be a pirate; just like Johnny Depp in Pirates of the Carribean. Sorry Johnny, I was told by many of my admirers that I looked far better than you ever did in a pirate costume!

And so to this year. I’m going to be something – I just don’t know what! The Missus seems to have a ‘fiendish’ idea for my most scary and powerful costume yet – she’s nuts.

You’ll have to guess what the costume is.

“Hee… Hee! Can you guess what I’m going to be? Hee… Hee!”

On another note, I want to take this opportunity to wish my Dad a (belated) Happy Barkday. I woof you so much!

Happy barkday to your Pops! I dunno about your costume though - a rubber hose and red ribbon! We would guess Lady Gaga but that's already been done!
