A random camper (nothing to do with the OC group) came over to ask if Duke needed a home because she'd fell in love with him when watching our dogs relaxing. If she'd enquired about Tricks, she could have had him . I told her about the OC website but she just said that she used to run a rescue (so I assume meant that she knew how to get a dog without help - by picking one up at a campsite? ). A few photos... Roxy worn out after a day of excitement A sweet memory of the weekend was seeing my special old Rox playing in the river with a random group of children, and one of the little girls 'bathing' her

Summer punch sounds a TOP idea! Do we have a large vessel for the concoction? Will have to bring a bottle of something punch-like...

I love his cute smile!

You're a star, Lynne! Thank you

We've booked and are looking forward to it very much.

Thanks very much for all your efforts Lynne. Your stall looks good, and that's a great amount to raise.

Hello! They're all gorgeous, but your Rosie is the image of my Murphy.

OK, thanks. I think I understand.

I should really get this booked. Do I need to mention surnames? Or are they planning to put us together anyway and I just need to say Oldies Club?

Oh, she's looking really well, Jeanne. Gorgeous photos - I hope you all had a good time there.

Are they putting us in one area together? Do we need to say 'Oldies Club' as a secret codeword or anything?

It's kelp! She loves to walk along a beach, just in the water, carrying a piece of kelp. I think she'd just carry on walking in the sea like that forever if we didn't drag her away!

It's Roxy's 16th birthday around the middle/end of March. We've had her since she was 4, but we adopted her from her previous owners who rescued her when she was a pup. This is the only photo I have of young Roxy, and I love it!: We took her and the others to Dorset for a long weekend to celebrate her big day. She still turns into a pup on the beach - she's on the far right above. Happy birthday, my special, cheeky old girl

Aw, that's so lovely. I love her little grey, wise face.

I hope she's OK.
