Morning all.

Suffering again this morning, but a little less.

 

Yesterday morning I spent a considerable amount of time trying to deduce what was 'beeping' around the house. A series of 3 beeps repeating, like morse code, then it would disappear, then hear it again. I unplugged electrical appliances one at a time in between standing still listening intently like a dog on the hunt. Eventually I went outside and realised it must be a new level of tinnitus from Friday's restaurant/pub experience.

 

The oh kindly took me to a Nepalese restaurant last night for a birthday meal which was exactly the same assault on my ears again, only a couple of hours but I'm hearing all sorts today.

 

Anyway, yesterday I spent the afternoon quietly hanging about in the woods on my own which was bliss, think I'll repeat today.

 

Have a good one folks.

Remember I'm up the road Alex, it's still called a walk in the woods and we can do it wherever we fancy for free!

Although it feels horribly wrong to do it without the company of at least one dog.

I was thinking about your vacancy yesterday. I trust every day’s a little easier?

It's funny but I'm fairly used to the experience, this feels very different though as I can barely remember a time with no dog at all to consider.

Was hard the other day on the grapple truck job, it was at a dogs trust property. Every time I went through a particular gate I was facing a kennel with a lovely gsd who would stand up expectantly, then as I turned away he'd lie down again. Desperately wanted to take him with me!

Well there’s a rectifiable mistake if ever there was one. He can ride in the tractor cab with you and enforce men at work signage. 
 

Yesterday’s shoot is on a dairy farm. Sailor was in the van cab over lunch, which now smells like the yard.

Still in bed. Binge watched Tatooist of Auschwitz. Chilling place, very humbling experience going there.

 

Know what you mean about lost pets Doug. Little cat went the other week and I still look down for him in my kitchen! Big GSD is 8 and would rather stay downstairs at step daughters place.

 

Due to, Romney.
