Monty and Rosie are the Border Collie dogs who keep an eye on that Susan Alison - or at least on her artwork and news of her books, which they round up and post on this blog on a regular basis.

Some dogs are very, very serious about their head gear...
Thank you! Someone asked me what a trilby was and I said I thought it was the kind of hat that Frank Sinatra wore - but now I'm wondering if that wasn't a fedora, or maybe they are the same thing...?
So, who is this Philip Treacy and what does he know about hats? P says that she wouldn't be seen dead in "that hat", although S quite fancies a Frank Sinatra titfer ....
It would seem that this chap, PT, doesn't in fact know very much about hats at all... Having said that, Unicef and Children in Crisis are now going to benefit to the tune of 93,000 euros - Beatrice is a good sport!
Titfer!!! What a totally fab word. (have to go and look it up now, though..)
Adorable.

Wow! I guess they are! The top one even has fascinators on her hat.

Lovely to see you, S, D, P and S.
Ah ha! Rhyming slang! Even better. Tit for tat. Thanks for that!
