Dog agility

That's it - I've had enough! This is the last time that I take perfect Rosie to dog agility. Its a flippin nightmare. All she does it bark and growl at the other dogs and behaves in a completely different way to her normal demeanor which is passive and quiet. Isn't it strange how, like humans, we behave differently when out of our comfort zone. Dogs are not humans however and dogs are expected to conform to certain basic principles around pack behaviour. I'm sure there is some logic in there somewhere but it eludes me at this point in time.

Club Tour comes good



Well it was an exciting day with the Thorn Club Tour having its real first test on the lanes and byways of rural Norfolk. This feisty little number coped with the pressures well and I am happy to report that both cycle and rider arrived back safely after their 50 mile adventure. The other half also completed the task which is a fabulous achievement.

precycle tension

Its 11.04 and I'm sat in bed contemplating the likelihood of finishing the Norwich 50 tomorrow morning in the pouring rain. Lets hope the forecasts are all wrong and the occasional shower is all we'll get.

Rain rain go to Spain
Don't let me have a soggy brain


Impressive eh!
Poet Laureate next I expect - is it a salaried post I wonder
