Day 23, Thursday 22nd April.
Luxurious long lay ins and even back to bed after full english breakfast.
More Molly time on the beach and long, wild walkies through the dunes. Madam as usual made lots of new friends but this time it was with the local Tick population. Always a joy finding and removing them.
Waved a teary farewell to our German neighbours who’ve been with us most of our stay here. We will miss the hilarious non-conversations that went on for hours, neither of us speaking a word of each other’s language.
Molly missed Nox but later in the day a French couple arrived with a beautiful Border collie.
Not as boisterous or fun as Nox (nor as scary looking) but canine company is essential when your living in such confined accommodations with humans.
Rob and Andy have been living and making together since 1990. We love all things art and design, travel, music, cinema, the joys of eco renovating a mid century house & garden and our beloved hound Molly.
Molly - Gascoigne calling.
ReplyDeleteWell I must say I am somewhat relieved to hear that that dubious German Mutt has now moved on to pastures (or campsites!) new! I was beginning to have concerns that I may have been usurped in your affections by that hi-jinks loving fatherland friend, because I must say I am missing our fun and games. Hilary does her best, but she is not as good as dragging me around the floor as you are.
Sorry to hear about the ticks. Nasty critters. Hilary has been checking me over of late as the tick season is starting. So far nothing, though she did spot what might have been a tick before it had hunkered down for the ride. Anyway, it did not last long!
You have our sympathy.
Lots of love
Gascoigne
ps - and now you have a french dog to play with remember the entente cordiale!
