Can’t handle it

It’s been a while since we had a ‘Pip injured herself’ post. Can’t take full responsibility for his one. My Baby Sprocker had a part to play in it too.

A friend took me to the local pub for lunch. She wanted to say thank you for the support I’d given her recently. Very kind of her. As it was such a beautiful day, we thought we’d eat in the beer garden. Unfortunately, the door opened outwards, so Bert dived out and I caught my hand on the door handle. Right between my fingers. Ouch!

One for me to work on as he does have a habit of diving through doors. This is the second time I’ve caught my hand. But the worst one as it’s blew up immediately.

Sure I’ll live. And didn’t stop me scoffing scampi and chips. Yum! Best break out the arnica…

Pub pup

Bert went to the pub for lunch today. Yes, I know he’s underage at a mere 12 weeks. So we kept him away from the hard stuff. He was rather well behaved for his first outing. He didn’t start any fights – even with a rather large pointer shouting at him. He didn’t pee or throw up. Better than some I’ve seen in the pub. He also got lots of fuss and attention.

We had a lovely relaxed lunch. After a lovely long ride out. Then back to the yard for my friends to pop some jumps. While Bert slept off his pub lunch…

Results

Blimey that was a rather long and fraught day. With lots of good results! First up I was judging the last show jumping show for John Lake RC. It was wonderful seeing so many smiling rounds. Bit fraught at times. Some fab costumes too. But everyone seemed to enjoy the day.

We ran a bit behind, so it meant a speedy exit to head over to Carrow Road. After NCFC taking an early lead, expectations were high. Then Middleborough scored 3 goals before halftime. A very tense second half and 2 more goals for City. Meant the final score was 3-3. Bonkers match! Great result!

The final result was getting the last Sunday Roasts for dinner at the pub after the match. Yum!

Soul time

My amazing friend Katie has come to visit this weekend. It’s been great showing her my part of the world. We walked down to the yard so she could meet Buddy. He gave her a good sniff and said hello. He’s heard a lot about her. And her him so lovely for them to meet each other.

After chatting most of the day and putting the world to rights, we headed to The Cantley Cock for dinner. Proper pub grub. Stuffed now!
