Missing the sea?

Sometimes I think that Mortimer remembers his first few months living by the coast and his daily swim.


I'm not sure he thinks that Fenland dykes are quite the same.



Not many mussels in here

Friends reunited

The last couple of Sundays have been without Zelda, the guide dog, as the weather has been just too nasty for Jim to venture out much. But today was glorious, chilly but sunny.

Gang of three
The only problem was that as Zelda hadn't been in the orchard for a while she did keep stopping to have a bite or two of apple, leaving Mortimer and Suki to charge about.


Come on Zelda!


Just us then Suki

Snow dog

Yey! Snow
Mortimer loves the snow, he was only six months old at the time of the last heavy fall and we kept losing him in the drifts! This time he's bigger and couldn't wait to get out there this morning. The first thing he did was to run round the garden in circles, occasionally burying his nose in the snow and tossing snowballs in the air.

Mmmmmm tasty!
Most of his friends were out & about and all seemed to be enjoying themselves. The only one with any problems was the little Yorkshire Terrier who was desperate to join in the fun but kept getting ice balls.

Snow friends  
They're all hoping for a long wintery spell!
