Today was International Dog Day. It was established 11 years ago and I’m amazed I only know about it now. Still, better late than never, I guess. It was started in 2004 by an American Pet Therapist called Colleen Paige. … Continue reading →

Posted on August 23, 2015 by Gary

It didn’t look like we’d be going anywhere today. It started grey and very foreboding. I managed to get wet walking home from the shops as the rain started. It all looked pretty much set in for the day. Warm … Continue reading →

Definitely not orange

Posted on August 17, 2015 by Gary

Having spent a day with the new puppy, I’ve decided I don’t like calling her Fanta. It’s a harsh word and doesn’t shorten very well. I’ve started calling her Fizz instead. It’s still short for Fizzy-pop Fanta. Actually, when I … Continue reading →

Flowers

Posted on July 27, 2015 by Gary

There was an improvement in the weather today. Though it was a bit drizzly at times, it was mostly dry. This meant I could work in the garden AND take the girls for a walk. The day started earlier than … Continue reading →

3 dimensions

Posted on July 12, 2015 by Gary

It seems like Tom has turned a bit of a corner. Sadly that’s not for vegetables. I’m surprised he doesn’t have scurvy. Mind you, he does drink them in his Nutrablast so that’ll protect him from the ravages of every … Continue reading →
