I’ve just come home from a lovely week away in Anglesey. It’s been such a nice break, with lots of walks along the coastal path, paddling in the sea, lazy morning in bed and relaxing evenings watching the sunset. We’ve walked … Continue reading
I am buzzing. During Guinness’ physio session tonight I was asked if I was planning on doing agility with Guinness again and it was actually recommended that we should do some! While I had accepted that we may never do … Continue reading

This afternoon I was actually sat outside in the sunshine and relatively warm (in a hoodie and combat trousers I might add). It’s good to get some vitamin D! I’ve not had my camera out much recently so it was … Continue reading
I’d been contemplating buying Guinness a coat for ages. I’ve had so many discussions in my head about it… it would stop him being completely soaked on a rainy day, it would keep him warm, it would save me drying him … Continue reading
