That lake looks beautiful Joanne - how lucky you are to live there. So wonder you are losing weight with all that walking up and down mountains - sounds like hard work. I'd love to have more mountain scenery but quite flat here, just the odd hill. Your dogs are lovely too - love the one of the two in the crate looking out - and the pictures of them on the lake of course.
Glad you had a good holiday Sophie - shame you didn't get pictures. That blood sounds horrible - hope whoever had the accident survived!
Been a wet and cold weekend, Maggie has enjoyed it though - curled up by the fire tonight though. Lydia has gone off to a fireworks party with friends and their family tonight - got out of going thank goodness, used my back ache as an excuse as it hurts if I stand still too long - but don't enjoy them, never have. My experience of fireworks night in the past has always been trying to look after the animals to make sure they were ok. The horses always worried us the most as houses back on to the field and when people had fireworks in their back garden they went up right over the field. Cats and dogs always stayed in doors safe. So I guess even as a child I always associated them as loud dangerous things that frightened animals.
The light up collars sound good Sarah - don't take Maggie out in the dark so not needed but they must be great for those that do. How is Loki - he must be bigger than Kaia now? Do you find it easier to train him having Kaia already - is he learning a lot from her?
