Whilst checking which photos I had yet to post, I came across these recent snaps of Gwen (Mum and John’s puppie), and though friends might want to see them.
The first is a little difficult to fathom, as I’m not sure what the slightly forlorn look in her eyes is all about – perhaps just plain tiredness after running about chasing her master all day? Or has she just been told that the tasty smelling joint of meat is not for canine canines to chomp on? It could just be that she saw the camera, and decided to take a pose 🙂
Secondly, we have Mum holding Gwen, which is a good enough photo in its own right; when you consider Mum is smiling, obviously aware of the camera by the fact she is looking right into the lens, this photo is even more cool and unusual 🙂
Oh and Winamp just played a classic Christmas hit, and I started smiling. Must be soon now… Yep, less than a week to go 🙂

Well Chris, you were right about Gwen being knackered.I had just introduced her to her new “dog minder”, called Sharman (thought that was some kind of witch-doctor?) – who is not only fanatic about dogs, but also has too much energy for her own good. Gwen had been out for a 45 minute walk, then came home and slept for four and a half hours.
Your Mum got her own back yesterday morning with my camera. I was having a slow morning, and the hairy alarm clock was set on me. It’s not a pretty picture of me, but it says it all by the expressions. Will send it to you tomorrow when I sober up!
Preparattions well under way, looking forward to seeing you on Friday. will check final arrangements with you tomorrow. John

Awww, bless. Blissfully knackered then 🙂
I’m 99.99% certain you would be a day early if you go to the airport on Friday 🙂
We’ll speak later to clarify matters. We’re all really looking forward to meeting up as well 🙂

Yep, I just triple checked it is Saturday morning we arrive. I have stuck the post with times and dates to the top of the front page, or you can access it directly here – or run a search for ‘red dove’ via the search box top left.
