Rabbiting

19 08 2007

The walking poop machine aka as the dog and I were out on a monster walk yesterday afternoon. Now that she is eight months old she is full of boundless energy. This means we can walk a long distance now. It is good for her as she loves the exercise and good for me as it gives me time away from working to clear my thoughts as well as doing my knackered knee the world of good.

So yesterday we are meandering across a field when at the same time we both spot a dead rabbit. We casually looked at each other, sizing up what we would both do and then waiting for the first move to be made. In scenes reminiscent of a slow motion recap, we both started out towards the aforementioned rabbit. Of course the dog got there first and then proceeded to carry her prize round proudly for about ten minutes. It took a long time to persuade her to drop it and leave it and I did have visions of her carrying the carcass home, all the way down the street. She is still too loud and excited to catch a live rabbit although that day will come and I suspect it will be sooner rather than later.





Blogging 2.0

This isn’t my first blog, rather just a new start under a different guise and I hope that many of the bloggers I have met will continue to read what I have to say and leave the occasional comment. My first blog was very open as to exactly who I was and what I did, this one will be a touch more circumspect in certain areas as a consequence.
