You nearly ready to go, Ted? Those ducks at the park aren’t going to chase themselves, you know.

 Almost, Smudge. I’ve just been distracted reading the Hunts Post about all of the great things coming up in the local area…

 I didn’t know you ready the Hunts Post, Ted! I thought you only looked for the cartoons.

 Well…I couldn’t find the cartoons, and I got to reading this instead.

 What’s on then, Ted? Anything that would tickle my fancy?

 Well I know that you’re a big Patrick Swayze fan…so you’ll be pleased to hear about the Dirty Dancing Tribute Show returning to Burgess Hall in St. Ives!

 Wow! I’m gonna have to get my dancing shoes out for that. Do you think they’ll get me on for the encore?

 Probably not, Smudge. I’ve seen you dance.

 Bark! Nobody puts Smudge in the corner…

 Anyway, for something a little less showbiz and a lot more historical, you can attend a Heritage open day at one of many different sites, including Oliver Cromwell’s House and the private library of Samuel Pepys across Cambridgeshire!

 Hmmm yes very interesting. Maybe we could get some ideas of books you can read so you don’t always have to look at the cartoons…

 Har, har. Later on in October, there’s a Magic of Motown show in Cambridge! Something else you can strap your dancing shoes on for.

  Bark bark! Well that keeps us busy then. Anything else?

 Not now, Smudge. I’ve found the cartoons…
