Hi Everyone
Crikey you've all been busy. I haven't watched TV since about last Wednesday - sounds like I missed some good programmes.
I had a lovely weekend - on Saturday we went up to Whitby and raced around and played on the beach with the dogs for nearly three hours - followed by the best fish & chips in the World, which we ate in the open overlooking the harbour.

Then we stopped off at some friends' house on the way home (just to say hello) and kind of got roped in to their first BBQ of the year. It was great fun -they've got three dogs, their neighbour brought his four dogs, plus our three - all of them big. Lots of getting to know you sniffing and George trying to prove he's the dominant male but they all got along okay in the end. In particular Ellie made friends with the neighbour's HUGE Mastiff girlie. They sat next to each other looking out the patio window and for all the World looked like they were having a good gossip. Having Ellie in the same room as a Mastiff AND a Great Dane was a bit of an eye opener - she really looks far more like a Mastiff than a Dane.
Yesterday was spent dog walking / garden centre shopping / gardening - trying to get our garden back in to shape after all the winter winds - I'm glad its the insurance and not us who are picking up the bill (well... most of it!)
George went to the Vet this morning - the good news was that the Vet doesn't think his lumps are anything awful but we've got to monitor them to make sure they don't get larger - the bad news was that he's gained back 3kg!

He thinks George's tummy problems are probably caused by.... overeating.

- so we're going back to the tried and trusted (but very windy making) doggy diet club regime of 50% green veg / 50% dog food mix again. If you're interested in share buying you might want to think about investing in companies which make fresh air spray!!!!!!
I think I've found a reputable hypnotist - just trying to pluck up the courage to make an appointment.
