Dog Blues!

The work on my garden has started. Monty is fed up to the back teeth! He can't go out and run around as he usually does. Black earth is everywhere. I'm not having him rolling in that! It was only on Friday last that I bathed him.

He's looking so miserable.

If only the weather will hold off. If it rains there'll be a mud bath just outside my back door.

Still, it'll be great in the summer. I hope!

Another little dream come true

At last I am going to have my garden re-modelled.  I've waited years and years for a chance to make something of my garden; it's small and paved but it's the only one I've got. At present it's too dangerous for me to use – the risk of falling is too great.

I've made my down payment and the work should begin Monday week. It will take three to four weeks to complete. I'll be able to have garden furniture and use it in the summer like an extra room. Ooh-err! I can't wait. What will my dog make of it, I don't know.

   

Roll on Summer

Here's Monty in the garden last summer.  Already I'm looking forward to the warmer weather. I had planned to have my garden improved but the gardener is conspicuous by his absence. All well, another dream shattered. 

Whiteout

       “What’s this fluffy stuff?”  Monty wants to know this morning.  Although he has seen snow last November he is still suspicious of it.

Yes, that is my finger on the left edge. Well, I never said I was a photographer.

It’s strange to see the sun shining and, at the same time, snow falling out of a blue sky. But since it is the lst of March snow or no snow as far as I’m concerned spring is here.
