Just had a weekend on an Over the Hill Club meet in the YHA bunkhouse at Mounthooley, the (walking) highlight of which was the climb up to the Cheviot by Bizzle Burn in driech conditions and deep snow - to be presented quite suddenly with a temperature inversion on the summit. Quite superb.
er...I also bagged a little HuMP at Hethpool and had a walk on the beach at Beadnell bay
But I'm telling you the plot. Its all done in the best possible tatse on the blog at www.northernpies.blogspot.com |

Looks like you had a great time
Impressive photos Mike
Bad news, our westie _ Bobby was put to sleep yesterday
He got a lamb bone from the kitchen bin and swallowed it, sadly it jammed solid in his throat, rushed him over to the 24hr vet service - they operated straight away but had no success removing the bone so the decision was made to put him to sleep on advice from the vet
Tragic losing a 3 yr old dog, a sad time indeed  |

It's sad at any time to lose a pet, but to do so in this circumstance is tragic indeed.
I love westies, they are so full of life. _________________ Aspire to inspire before you expire. |

Thanks for kind words fellas
I buried him earlier today in the garden at his favourite spot
It was a strange feeling when I arrived home from work not to have Bobby running up to greet me ..... he will be sadly missed |
