Puppy Love

I'm getting some Scooby love on Wednesday!!!

Scooby will be coming to stay with me in the evening, I'll have her for a whole 24 hours and I cannot wait!

Apparently Scooby is obsessed with shadows at the moment, all she wants to do is chase shadows.  She's not interested in playing with people or fetching a ball.  Not sure what that is about but we will go for a nice long walk on Thursday up along Fontmell or Melbury Down so she gets to stretch out and burn off some energy.

It breaks my heart that we can't have our own little Scooby but as we don't know where we will be over the next few years (UK?  Australia?  Canada?) it wouldn't be fair to have a dog and put her through quarantine.  So I will just have to get as much Scoobie love as I can absorb, she is my surrogate puppy.

Springtime in Dorset

All the pics below were taken either in my front garden or within 20 metres of the driveway to our house.  After the two bitterly cold winters and bare trees that I have seen here, spring and summer are total heaven.  It is really weird though, to go to bed at 9pm and it's still bright daylight outside.  Not the afterglow of sunset, I'm talking DAYLIGHT.  And then if I'm up at 4.30am to go to a farm, it's light outside already.  I don't even have to turn lights on in the house to get dressed or see where I am going. 

Better but busy

I have been feeling alot better in the last couple of weeks, I think it has to do with the right supplements and improving my diet.

Andrew is getting fed up with his job, he is more determined than ever to give his notice in a couple of months.  He'd do it now but we're still a bit on the poor side.

I have been given a couple of new farms with possibly more on the horizon.  My little eco friendly business is going slowly, I need to focus on that more and establish a bigger customer base.

Spring is well and truly here now, actually it is Summer but the weather is still quite mild.  It's so lovely to see all the trees in full foliage for the first time and the hedges along our front path are covered in pink and white flowers.

Pics and more updates to come shortly.
