42

Lizzie is 42 today in doggie years.

Perhaps she knows the meaning of life? If the meaning of life is hauling ourself out of your bed at 10am, going for a run around the park, coming home to a pig's ear and a bacon sandwich before stretching out for the afternoon on one of your 4 soft and comfortable beds before a tea of sardines, then she has it sussed.

Shame it was spoilt by having to pose with a stupid hat on.

Lizzie's paternal grandfather was Brett Lee (not the actual Brett Lee but his canine namesake), one of the most famous and celebrated Australian greyhounds, who set a world speed record. Here he is with the other, much slower, Brett Lee.

Back to work tomorrow. Ughh.
