It’s time you met my good friend Bertie Aheron.

He calls here regularly. sometimes three or four times a day. I don’t mind, but the dog does. She goes ballistic. He is trying to eat all the goldfish in my pond.

Please don’t confuse him with another bloke of a similar name.

The other Bertie is NOT welcome here. I’d go ballistic.

They do have some things in common. Bertie is a thief. He tries to take things that don’t belong to him. He can be sneaky. And he’s a coward

However my Bertie has some features that set him apart. For a start, he is good looking. In fact, he is quite beautiful. He walks around my garden and is a joy to behold.

If I could speak my Bertie’s language, I’m sure I’d understand him [which is more than I can say for the other fella].

My Bertie is so good looking, I photographed him…….
