all a figment of my imagination.  So, I took a few deep breaths and Dinky put his paw on my arm, which reassured me a little. But it didn't do anything towards getting me home. Where on earth was home? Was it hundreds of feet below, at the foot of the tree trunk? But remember - we had fallen down a hole originally? So did I need to go up - or down? Oh dear. A tear sprang into my eye.  I was amazed  when Dinky spoke to me .... |

Then I remembered we were out of the hole (see post 15  )Dinky said "Let's carry on up mum....I may be barking up the wrong tree  but I think we may find something exciting at the top".So upwards and onwards they went............. |

It was all so confusing!  ........and odd. Holes/trees/clouds - ah my! "Dinky", I said, "How long have you been able to speak?" "I've always been able to speak, Mum" he said "It's just that you haven't been able to hear and understand me" " It's good here, isn't it? Before we go any further I want to have a word about when you took me to the vets when I was a teenager......" "No time for that sweetie" I said "I think we may get a little involved with what's up ahead............................................. ......." |

They continued the climb until they reach the very top where all the branches spread out to make a platform. They were able to rest, no more climbing.....the sun was shining brightly and as they looked around.............. |

........they saw that the tree wasa beautiful peach tree - with blossom, leaves and fruit, all at the same time. They picked and ate some of the peaches, which, together with the sunshine, cheered them up a little. But they still didn't really know where they were. Someone came towards them - it was |

...a little old man with a long white beard......and following him were lots and lots of cats, dogs and other animals. "Haven't seen you here before, m'dear" he said, "how can I help you?"............ |

"Oh hello" I said, "Im not sure how you can help" "I suppose the first thing I'd like to know is where I am? - it sems like ages ago that Dinky and I set out for a walk, and, what with one thing and another, and lots of adventures, neither of us quite know where we are or even what day it is" |

"Well that's an easy one" he answered "Don't be alarmed; this place is called Rainbow Bridge, but I can see there's been some mistake, because we're not expecting you for a long long time" "Come and eat with us, and I'll introduce you to some of these lovely animals" |

The old man led us to a lush green meadow with a wavering stream trickling through the middle. Dinky and I sat in the warm sunshine and looked around at all the animals....we were amazed...they all looked so happy........... |
