Damp round the edges....

So here we are again.... another wet and windy Bank Holiday weekend.  

On Monday it's Jack-in-the-Green and also tens of thousands of bikers will descend on the town for their annual May Day bike run.   

The weather forecast does not look auspicious... rain and drizzle.  I won't bang on about how this must be the wettest drought in the history of forever, since everyone else is already doing it, but we've just had the wettest April for decades and May isn't shaping up to be any better.


No matter.


I'm going to play around with my little corner shop today and make a start on my shopping list for KDF on Friday.  My plans for that trip have been somewhat curtailed by Small Dog being referred to the specialist orthopaedic vet on Wednesday, with the likelihood that she will have surgery on her back leg on the day.


So we'll all be back to sleeping on an airbed on the sitting room floor for a while, until she's able to cope with getting around properly again.  Poor wee thing.  She's only just got all her leg fur back from the last operation last November.  Hopefully she will make as rapid a recovery as last time and within a month or so she'll be as good as new.  The first few days though will be traumatic...I'm trying not to worry about it.


*sigh*

I so sympathize with you and Small Dog; my life long love of animals has taught me that they are brave and loving little souls. My best thoughts and wishes go to both of you.

Thanks Neen...

It's going to be a traumatic week all round but I'm sure she'll be fine and she'll lap up all the pampering....
