Red and Rover by Brian Basset for November 13, 2019

Keep Rover warm, Red!! Let him under the blanked!!

You’ve stepped in it now Red.

I hope you have a Plan B, Red!

So much for that!

Bed bugs already?

Well, that’s a serious problem.

Uh oh! MOOOOOOOMMMMMM

Don’t worry Rover, Red’s advice wouldn’t work anyway.

Oh, boys, Oh, boys, Oh, boys – love and hugs always for RED & ROVER

Windew? What’s a windew?

windew??? It goes. Good night, sleep tight, don’t let the bed bugs bite. If they do, hit them with a shoe, make them all black a blue. Al least that’s the version I learned. :-)

Or; eat them. Whatever works.

Sleeping at a friend’s house, I caught a bedbug, but it got away before I could crush it between my fingernails. I told him about it, and he denied he had an unclean house, until he discovered them later in the week.

Rover had to think about that one for a bit!

How does Rover distinguish between a bed bug bite and a flea bite? And why do we even say this rhyme? Eww.
