Definitely licking windows special in Finley"s case, usually because he is catching flies. He's very good at it, and only goes after flies. Leaves bumbles alone if they get it, and waits for me to let them out.
-
Finley's coolmat is a Nobleza, seems to work very well. Hot again here today, then up to 33 tomorrow, then a bit cooler on Tuesday, then lots of rain on Weds followed by a spell of cooler weather with showers.

Sorry, been struggling with the heat. Fin has a non-gel coolant which helps. Should be a bit cooler tomorrow.
-
Humid here and sweltering, fans on in house, hoping for rain to clear the air. So glad Finley went to groomer last week otherwise he would find this very uncomfortable.
-
My car has MOT later this month as well.
Started the day feeling very tired and low but managed to get a load of washing out, all dried now, and met Flo spaniel and her dad in the forestry early afternoon. Very quiet there.

Hope that can be done asap x

What did the dr say?

12 weeks are up since op and i am now allowed to drive. I drove to next village for petrol and shopping. It went ok after initial nervousness on my part, my recovering leg is managing the clutch very well but I wouldn't like to drive very far for the time being. Taking Finley to the groomer tomorrow afternoon.

Finley met the dignified and ladylike Dobermann who has moved in next door. They had a conversation through the fence. Something along the lines of "Look at the legs on that one! Cor I don't 'arf fancy you missus, c'm 'ere and give us a kiss!" "What hole did you crawl out of, you disgusting little yob?"

Is he any better today?
New neighbour is very pleasant and friendly and has a mature dobermann bitch. She and Fin have barked at each other a few times over the fence panels near the house but haven't actually seen each other through the wire fence further down the garden.
-
Having a noisy day. New next door neighbour is moving in, and Fin has provided a running commentary. He has now fallen asleep exhausted.
Hope you and the family improve soon xx

Horrible shock for you, and well done with the first aid.
Finley is doing well, no longer lame, cuts and grazes have healed well. He is still a bit shaken up,needing lots of cuddles.

Just checking in. Big drama yesterday, Finley pulled a fast one on me when Trevor arrived at teatime, got into the front porch behind me without me knowing, and sneaked out to greet him. Would have been ok but he saw a beagle across the road, whizzed over and got clipped by a trailer behind a van. Off to vet, just scrapes and bruises, a bit lame this morning but doing well. Everyone was in shock, including neighbours, van driver, beagle owner. I was touched by all the help I was offered. 2 neighbours offered to take us to vet as they know I am still not allowed to drive, but Trev was ok to do it so off we went.
I am shattered this morning as didn't sleep well. Fin is a bit lame but otherwise doing well and ate a good breakfast.

Wishing you better quickly, blackmajik.
I've also been sorting out things for charity shop, have taken a couple of items but can't take anything fragile or heavy until I am allowed to drive again. Trevor took Fin and me to vet for Fin' annual vax yesterday, then we explored a few interesting places and had some short walks down footpaths.

My long lost relative and his wife were in Nottingham for the weekend, so today they came up to see me and took me out for lunch today, was very pleasant.
Hope you get the stocking problem sorted out, Jazz.
-
Whew, finally got it sorted, notes being emailed to GP. I hate to think what problems people must have who aren't very good with phones and internet.

Sweet photo.
I'm still making progress but am doing battle with NHS computer systems. The hospital didn't send any discharge notes to my GP. I didn't get any either, but they do exist because the local START team had them. I know because something in my personal details was wrong and they corrected it. I tried to ring my ward, they are looking into it but my call got cut off.

That seems ridiculous, that such a small amount should matter.

Getting a bit better every day, and now Finley is back with me. Trevor took me to collect him this afternoon.
-
Neighbour Jerry took me to get hair cut yesterday morning. I'm much happier to have a neat short cut than go around looking like a dandelion clock. It was a right mess. Then Trevor drove me to the reserve for a spot of birdwatching. It was nice to see a red kite. I did get out of the car for a short walk on crutches.

Norovirus is horrid, wishing all your family a good recovery.
I've done ok during my first week at home, but get very tired as everything takes more time and more effort. At least I can get out into the garden and sit in the sun, and am getting some colour back after a total of 20 days indoors in hospital then rehab.

I took a puli there many years ago, in the junior class. I will have a look on youtube.
Collected new glasses today, reading is much easier now.

blackmajik, hope you are recovered from the root removal.
I have stopped the incessant sneezing and am just left with an annoying cough. Hopefully that will also clear in a few days.
