Bongoli

Pressure of work and all that. No excuse.
Bongoli is the Japanese for a hair ball, in our family at least, if not nationwide. Our retriever had a bit of a dreadlock issue on his tail, so I did a spot of pruning.
In a moment of levity on arising from a light lunch to find everyone else preoccupied in various ways I also added a little something and went off chuckling to myself. I hoped somebody might spot the little munchkin later. Sure enough after I had forgotten all about it my wife spotted it on the floor next to the dog on his mat. My kids said they had never heard her laugh like that before. It did look like the mutt had spawned a shy little pup of his own.
