More from oop Nortth!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy here!

Sunrise was as grey as could be, so no success there then!

I had a kick around with my new ball but to be honest it was more interesting sniffing the sniffs!

OTL spent the morning trying to book that test thingy but they wouldn't answer the telephone. It's a good job he wasn't in any rush!

As there were no photos of today, I've been poking around in the camera to see if there were any interesting stuff from his week up in Northumberland, this is what I found.

Another shot of Bamburgh Castle.

Of course, Uncle Alun does love to pretend he has climbed up the side of the castle, even if it was a small bridge!

 I'm King of the Castle!


There were loads of birds flying around off shore but even with 'bins' you couldn't make out what they were.


Just look at that beach and that's the Farne Islands off to the right.

Now, it was the Vikings wot invaded Northumberland and chased all the monks off the island. A bit later it was the local Anglo Saxon who tried chasing them off.

This is OTL acting as a big bold Anglo Saxon!

With the sun shining through the windows the inside of this church lit everything up!


The Holy Island of Lindisfarne was host to St Aidan and St Cuthbert who branched out from here to Spread the Word. This is acting as a head stone to St Aidan. We're not sure this is him or just a statue but at least the sun is shining on him!

There we go history lesson for today!

Bye for now.

Luv,

Daisy.

Is he still breathing?

Hello Woofers!

It's Daisy Dog again.

Now you know just how much I hate the trip to the vet, well, I've just seen a letter from the NHS to OTL requesting he visit to the Phlebotomy Clinic for them to take a sample of his blood.

Now I know just how big and brave OTL is but let’s face it, the size of the needle and the amount they take, well, that's almost an arm full!

I've got a trip to the vet on Thursday and I'm pleased to announce that I reckon I'm OK. Everything feels back to normal, so, no needles for me!

This morning OTL took me for a walk and although we missed the sunrise there was a little glimmer in the distance.

 

  It would have been better with a telephoto lens!

 What with OTL being away it has allowed the Hawthorn to get blooming! When OTL left there were just a couple of blooms but look at them now!

 

I reckon anymore and it will look like snow!

 OTL was off again down to see his customer to deliver the programmed gear and he left me at home! 

Mind you, staying at home I was able to bully TM into giving me a chicken nibble!

Result!

The car has got its cover on, it looks like a big grey sausage strapped into it.

The next time it comes out is at the end of March when OTL and Alun go away for a weekend!

I can hear the sound of doggy food being put in my bowl so I'm off to see what's for Din Dins!

Bye for now.

Luv,

Daisy.
