A phone call woke me up with a start this morning and I was forced to try and think, focus, listen, speak, and ask questions straight away , something that normally takes a few hours.

Anyway after breakfast and a quick bath off I trott to see Marie and Marley in their new home. Marie and family have recently returned from Brazil where they have been living for a few years.

Their new home is absolutely gorgeous; complete with a view of the lake.

Marley is the latest addition to the family and was having to wear protective clothing as it was 'that time of the month ' .... three months in fact. Never having had a dog as a pet, I did not know that. We live and learn :yes:

This is Marley at home on her sunbed.
