Hello everyone, it's Sam here 
Well, my new Mum and I had a long journey South and I arrived in this strange place, which everyone is calling Sarfend on Sea, I believe it is actually supposed to be Southend on Sea.
On the journey, I was snoozing most of the time, but from time to time I put my head up to listen when I thought I heard my Mum talking to herself, but what she was actually doing, was telling me what a good boy I was being.
It took us a long time to get home, because we hit bad some bad weather, loads of rain, we could hardly see in front of us at times and my Mum said to me that we'd have to go a bit slower, as it was raining so hard she couldn't see properly and I was what she called her "precious cargo"!
When we finally reached Hertfordfordshire, we got to a place called Bishop's Stortford and my Mum said to me, "that's it Sam, I don't need to look at the map book any more, I know my way to Essex and home from here".
I thought to myself, thank the Lord for that, as I was getting rather peckish !
When we finally got home, my new Dad came out to meet us and he had my new brother with him !
My Mum explained to me that Mick was her and her late husband's dog and Benji was my Dad and his late wife's dog, when my Mum and Dad became a couple, they all lived together.
Benji is a collie cross, he's 13 and we hit it off immediately and went for a long walk around the block, so that I could stretch my legs after the long journey.
I had my dinner and wandered around the house, checking it out, I must say, I like it here, I've decided I'm going to stay here for the rest of my life.
Before I bedded down for the night, my Mum held my paw, rubbed my chin and told me that I had made her life whole again.
Apparently, I am what is known in "Essex speak" as a "diamond geezer" !
I'll keep you updated of how I get on.
Bye for now,
Love Sam
