Kent visit blog

Hoomans put me in the car Friday night to travel down to Kent to see my mom's dad and Sammy my woofy mate.

After a night sleeping in the conservatory on the sofa Dad took
me out for my morning  but the bin was full

Fortunately Dad got a Dicky bag last week at Chatsworth so the odour seal was useful as it was a smelly one.

So I'm tired again so as the hoomans are in I'm in the lounge a nice leather sofa to lie on!

Being a woofer I spread out and force the hoomans onto the floor. Look between the shoulders that's me on the sofa ! Bol

Time to go for now 

Back to normal routine blog

So the kids are back at school and my hoomans back at work. That means lots of chillin on the sofa listening to radio 2.
Dad was late leaving for work came into the lounge and saw me doing the greyhound thing - lying upside down. The sneak took this opportunity to brush my teeth! Not funny.

This is my new bandana that Dad decided at lunchtime was the time to try it on me.

The weather has changed to showers and cloud. To save me getting wet on my nights walk I went out in my rain jacket.

Dad has been on the phone to my Kent grandad tonight and a visit is on the cards so that means I get to see Sammy my yorkie mate.
Dad also phoned my French grandad who I haven't met and that will happen next month.

Home very tired blog

Well hoomans been busy doing 6 loads of washing including my sleeping bag and towel.
I've been really tired today so just been moving from sofa to sofa.

Hoomans got chicken for tea and have promised me some and the gravy.
That's all my blogging daily done as my holiday is finished. I will aim for at least 1 a week.

Holiday over blog

Well hoomans saw the weather forecast and decided it was best to go home today not tomorrow.
Something about the tent being bigger than our garden so if it got wet then it would be impossible to dry.

With the packing done hoomans got a shower then some lunch in the outstanding old smithy cafe in Monyash.
Drove to Lathkill Dale for a walk in the woods saw some strange people!

I think they were on a sponsored walk or something. We even went over a bridge but it was a good excuse to try out my new lead.

Got home I eat my tea whilst the hoomans unpacked everything.
Loved my holiday but I missed my sleeps on the sofa.

Chatsworth country fair blog

Knowing I was I going to be walked round the country fair I got fed sardines on my kibble. Nom nom!
Whilst walking round the fair we went up to the lurcher area and saw this sign.

So far I've met 2 greys who are going to the gathering. Then I met 2 more black greys at the Sheffield retired greyhound stall. I got a new collar to wear at the gathering and Dad got a T-shirt for the gathering.

Found all the people and noises of whole fair stressful. Hoomans took me into Chatsworth house gardens so I can get some peace. Mom been stroking my neck and ears for ages.

After I had chilled a bit we went back to the stalls then the Rolo shopping really started. I got a thunder jacket to help calm me, a cool dog wet jacket I can walk in when it's hot, a dinky poo bag, a help the heroes lead and dog buff. Not bad I thought.
4.15pm it was the red arrows - boy they were noisy scared me. Mom thought it was a good time to try my thunder jacket.

Just when I thought my fun is over we are sticking around to watch 40 hot air balloons. Ooppps it's too windy so they have been cancelled. Time to go back to the tent for a kip!

Well dressing and walk blog

After my afternoon sleeping hoomans decided it was time to do something.
We went to Wormhill for their 60th anniversary well dressing.

It's a Derbyshire thing blessing the wells for the water they bring. Each village for a week decorate boards with flower petals. They also display scarcrows.

They also decorate churches with flowers. I was going to stand outside with Mom but one of the guides said I was allowed in. So I did.

After the well dressing we went to Tideswell for a walk. Dad had to pay a hour on the car park even though the restrictions finished in 30 minutes. Did a lovely 3.5 mile walk but I needed to visit the stream for a drink.

Tired dog blog

I'm tired after my 7 mile walk yesterday. I only wanted to plod round Buxton. Hoomans went into the farmers market they didn't sell any doggie biscuits so had to take me to the pet shop instead. Whilst Dad and I waited for Mom I went and said hello to a black lady grey. We both wagged our tales at each a rare thing for both of us.
At the pet shop I got a couple of dental chews, bonios and biscuits. Did some shopping in the town and then over to the park.

Walked through the park and back to the car. Hoomans went to blaze farm to get a nice home made ice cream. I was kipping in the car so didn't get any.
Then back to the tent so I can rest.
