Well……the heatwave is finally about to break and a week of thunder storms and torrential rain are due to hit us. To be honest, I could do with some rain, as could the garden, and I do enjoy watching really dramatic weather. I’m glad it will be pouring down tomorrow at the rescue as it’s …
Over the last ten days we’ve had an out and out heatwave which is set to continue for another week. Not a single drop of rain has fallen, and although I’m boiling alive day and night, I have no intention of complaining. BUT…… wildlife is really suffering. The rescue is flooded with animals that are …
Last year the front and back garden went to rack and ruin as I found it impossible to get anything done with the pups being so young. If I took my eyes off them for a split second I’d find Annie disappearing through the railings or Sam roughing her up, so, in the end I …
It’s been a really busy old week, with all sorts going on. I’ve finally had to accept the fact that the whole house is urgently in need of redecorating and so I finally got stuck in to the worse room in the house, the kitchen. After a crazy few days of dogs getting tangled in …
It’s that wonderful time of the year, when, rain or sunshine we get out and about and enjoy long walks and cycle rides. I always like to capture the sunset of the longest day of the year…….and this year it was a beauty! If the sun shines, we’re all outdoors enjoying the BBQ, and we’ve …
Duckling chicks…..we have had lot’s of these this year. For as long as I can remember, I’ve always been able to sense the presence of injured animals. Sometimes I’ve been flashing past on a bike and “spotted” a wounded hedgehog, cat or bird. But I know that I haven’t actually physically seen them. Hubs always asks …
Oh what a glorious time we’ve had! Over the last seven days we’ve had a mini heatwave and the plants, animals and people are simply loving it. My fruit bushes are romping away, as is the Rhubarb…….which then, amazingly, turns into this. Courtesy of my wonderful neighbour Barbara, not at all bad eh? The fruit trees …
This last week has been utterly glorious and the sun has been cracking the flags which has allowed me to get cracking on the millions of jobs needing doing in the garden. The cold Spring has left me really behind and now everything is growing at such speed I simply can’t keep up with all …
Last year, the rescue, along with vets and the Dogs Trust began addressing the growing problem of bull breed dogs across the North West of England. The event has now become an annual thing, and during May the welfare needs of bull breed dogs are promoted at parks throughout Liverpool. Sooooo….guess what I’ve been doing …
Today, I checked my email and found an e card from my sister in my inbox. I was really surprised and thought she was sending a type of “thinking of you” card. When I opened it I was astonished to see it was a happy anniversary card! I checked the date and realized with …
