Dinas Dinlle With Four

Though the path was overgrown and the grass was wet, it was bloody lovely down there.

I've never seen so many wild Iris as there were on the path in the opposite direction to the estuary. 

The girls were good, but letting them off the lead together really wasn't wise, as a pair they just don't bloody listen, with other pack members, they are great. Anyway no harm done as there was no one about, but I'll think twice next time! 

With Orin and Siska we walked towards the estuary, The Foryd! Mostly it was great, just a woman with 4 dogs off the lead and only three of them listening. The collie was an absolute arsehole. You know, I'd be a hypocrite to moan about someone walking 4 dogs, but in her position, well, I'd have just turned around and gone the other way or at least pretended to the collie that that was what I was doing and then got hold of him. Not a word from Orin and Siska, we moved further across to where the river was wider, but at one point I did think the little shit was going to come over!  

What I like about coming down here and parking by the bridge is that there are 5 different walks that set off from the same place. From the Foryd we took the little bridge up the footpath through the trees almost to the end, then back again. 

The men met us for lunch in the airport cafe, so a lovely morning and then a lovely lunch. 

Tomorrow I'm back on Tremadog duty! 

Puppy Thoughts

Nicola's updates mean the world to me, and knowing which pup is which is also wonderful and will be invaluable later on. It's far too early for commitments, but to distract me from Mother-gate I spend a lot of time looking and thinking. My thoughts at the moment are that if there is a male and female with similar show potential, then it would be wiser to take a female. I know it's always easier to win with males, it always has been, even in the days when classes were numerically much higher there were less males, but there has to be more to it than show success. Worst-case scenario, and Siska doesn't conceive again, then if Kez is here, there is a backup plan. But of course if a male is outstanding, then different plan still needs consideration!

A Place In The Rain

A phone call, a walk, a cup of tea and biscoff cake, and an adventure with a secret. Just the change I needed!

I wish I could say it was all my own work - but it's not - I had AI assistance!!

Walks Towards Llyn Cop

I'd love to say two lovely walks, but Meerah was a right handful and seemed to forget I was on the end of the bloody lead! On top of that, I'd put my dark glasses on, and I couldn't see to walk comfortably on the uneven path. Beti also pulled like a steam train towards the lake, and with both at full pace I struggled. 

The second walk was easier; Sammi was off the lead for most of it, and Zeus was great, other than the usual tangles in the lead. 

The last two days I've felt really emotional, to be honest, I'm struggling. The situation with Mum has totally taken over my life. Even when I'm home I get calls from OT's, my brother and lots of odd calls from my mum. You laugh or cry, depending on your mood, but when she rings you and says she's sorry she was trying to get BBC1, well, you laugh. I do hope things can get better for everyone again, I just can't envisage it carrying on like this indefinitely. 

Now, just to add the tophat on it, that bastard sheep and her lamb are getting back into the field.
