Holiday Essentials

On Saturday I'm off to the airport and go for nearly two weeks to Hungary. It seems the weather will be kind to me and I'll have the perfect time for some good old site-seeing. I had better be prepared for long walks, sunny days and chilly evenings.

So my (spring) holiday essentials are:

1. A nice parka which is not too warm, not to cold, perfect for this time of the year.

2. Of course sunglasses, as I hope I'll have lots of sunny days.

3. A big scarf, it always comes in useful.

4. A decent pair of shoes (must be comfy as well).

5. A not too big/not too small backpack to put all my secondary holiday essentials in!

This lovely little dog is Okie, my dog walking partner. I borrow him from his rescuer who's my neighbour. She saved his life after his previous owners decided that after 6 years of having him they'd had enough and wanted to put him down. They even called him a "sculpture dog" as he was always in the living room and they wouldn't even take him out for a walk! Someone took pity on little Okie and contacted my neighbour looking for a foster home. As she already had 2 rescue dogs, several cats and a few rabbits she didn't think there would be room for him in the long-term. However, after a few weeks living together she changed her mind and became Okie's brand new loving owner.
This furry little thing is the nicest dog I've ever met! He never complains, barks, pulls the lead, pees where he shouldn't or does anything to make you angry. But he does make funny noises, loves a good stroke and most of all he's just grateful to be alive (and walking)!

SOS Birthday Card

I needed a birthday card urgently. As my printer hasn't been functioning very well for a while I had to come up with something that did not require modern technology...
