Ashbutt is "helping" us . . .


. . . for various values of "helping".  We're assembling a couple of storage cabinets, and he's finding the process fascinating.




We don't necessarily appreciate the help, particularly when he gets underfoot at critical moments, but he seems to regard that as part of the fun!  Just wait until I start hanging the shelves.  I bought a couple extra, to make better use of the internal space, and I daresay he'll be trying to hop his way upward from shelf to shelf like a rock-climber.  I've seen him do it before - and he's actually amazingly good at figuring out how to make progress.  Determination, thy name is Ashbutt!

This just dawned on me, but was Ashbutt a play on Casteil's 'assbutt?'

IIRC, he had an ash colored area of hair on his posterior.

Yes, indeed. Look at the picture in this post:

An ash-colored ass, indeed!
