The saying goes that everything happens in threes, but it seems it isn’t so. I popped into Joe’s Store in Nottingham last week, to have a little look around. They say they are a store full of cool, and they do have a lot of cools stuff there. So cool I didn’t look where I was stepping and nearly trop on the lovely, chocolate-brown dalmatian called Mia that seemed to blend with the wooden floor. (Mia is going to have her own blog, so we might exchange links!)

I took a photo with a mind to mentioning how lovely she was on this blog. But then I met another dalmatian! She was waiting to greet me at the door of Longlevens Infants School last friday. In fact she was the Head Teacher dressed up for their Book Day. I caught this wonderful picture of her attending to paperwork in her office. Either the paperwork or the wearing of the costume was above and beyond the call of duty!

So I thought, everything happens in threes and waited for the next dalmatian occurrence so I could post them all together. I can’t wait, so here are the pictures for you. I bet a dalmatian comes trotting up my drive minutes after I’ve posted this.
