We did it


Got hitched, that is. It seems like an age away now, but we had a wonderful day - it was really special & intimate. The sun shone all day - amazingly as they predicted rain all day - and everything was perfect. We haven't been on our moon of honey yet - that has to wait until January as we need to make sure the kennels are pretty much empty of inmates so that the olds are able to cope by themselves for a few weeks. But, it's all booked & we're off to Thailand to learn how to play ping pong. I'm kidding, but I'm practicing my pelvic floor exercises, just incase. We are going to Thailand, but after spending 4 nights in a very swish looking Bangkok hotel, we fly down to the island of Krabi. Very excited! I've been to Thailand before, but about 19 years ago & I understand that Koh Samui where I spent most of my time is no longer the idyllic paradise it once was, but more like Benidorm! What a shame. Krabi, I believe is a lot less developed, but still has a bit going on in the towns - we need something other than just perfect beach as my new husband might just go a bit stir crazy. Hopefully, it will fulfill all of our expectations. Please don't comment otherwise if you've been there - it's booked now!!!

The kennels are gearing up for the bank holiday weekend & we're gearing up for the wedding party here in a few weeks. Jeff has a love rival it seems in the form of a Staffordshire Bull Terrier called Taz. More about him later..... for now, I'm off to hose the runs.

I'm back!

First thing's first - congratulations Malc! My pal on the Edge of Nowhere has two sows who have produced their first two litters - he has the UK's most northerly herd of Saddlebacks now! Well done Malc & Sal (& Molly & Kim of course!)

After much coaxing from a particular friend of mine (mentioning no names Claire) I've come out of self-induced blogging retirement & have decided to keep you updated with my daily antics. Antics is probably too strong a word actually - that makes it sound like I lead a life of real excitement!

I'm about to go to work in the kennels now, but I shall sit down later & let you know what I've been up to to bring you all up to speed. I hope you wont get too bored....

Speak in a bit.
