Dedicated to my beloved Scotties
Well now …. for those of you of years past, you will know that Gus alway had a problem getting across the local stream’s stepping stone. So on this occasion as you can see, rather than him getting thoroughly wet, he was carried over. Not something that Gus (God Rest His Soul) would have overly worried about – it was a means to an end – and if he needed carrying … then so be it. He just shrugged it off and carried on as he he’d skipped across those pesky stones! God Love him ….. we still do!
Those were the day …. back in 2005. We visited The Isle of Skye – what a fabulous photo of me, My mother Isobel, my older Sister Kelpie, and my litter brother Finlay. And the weather …… as you can see it looks rather Mediterranean, not what you’d expect from Scotland ….. Those were the days!
Well …. this was some years back and could possibly be a contender in our “Flash Back Friday” series of photos. But as it does contain an element of liquid it really does sit more comfortably within the “Thirsty Thursday” category.
One bad and frightening thing from this photo that you don’t see, is that some parts of the beach are so “mushy” that your feet sink up to your ankles, or in the case of Mama, she sank much further! She was not happy. She was also sooooo very worried that we’d sink ourselves.
So if you are ever on the beach at Formby, looking at the architecture of Anthony Gormley figures, do be very careful, the sand is like quicksand!
Lets give a big welcome to my fabulous friend Angus Fala, from a place called “facebook” that is culling all our scottie friends. At least there will be warm welcome from wordpress …… yay!
A lot of my dog friends are being killed off – on Facebook. We’ve had a nice, vibrant place on Facebook, with lots of Scottie people talking to each other and a lot of Scotties, with their own accounts, discussing the world from their paws. A lot of users have spent a lot of time there – it’s been quite helpful and entertaining. Only an idiot would try to kill it. Who could be that kind of idiot? Lord Zuckerberg and his minions.
Rumors have been flying for a while that pet profile accounts were in jeopardy. But they were only far away animals, not even Scotties, so I paid little attention. Then a few months ago, Dusty Border Terrier got the axe, but he had already passed away, and was a Border Terrier, so it didn’t concern me much. Then last week, the pace quickened – first…
