No blog today.

It’s been a long week, and I have hit the wall.

But I did want to say that the Dear Readers have been particularly dear in the last few days. You have left wise and kind comments, sent dancing tweets which made me laugh, written antic Facebook remarks. I don’t want to descend into Hallmark card territory, but this generous virtual back and forth damn well does warm the cockles of my absurd old heart.

So, thank you.

The Duchess and the Pigeon; really, two of the most beautiful canines that ever graced the good Scottish earth.

  2. I measure my life's span and worth in the the pleasure I have had owning my dogs: past, present and future. I am sure all dog people do the same :)
