October 2026
The big news this month
was that Tara went to have the other half of her teeth out. She is now completely toothless. Two teeth were saveable, but wouldn’t
have lasted long so the vet advised that the lot were taken out. When she had the first half out, she
felt very sorry for herself for ages and it took her a long time to get
comfortable. This time was much
better, perhaps because this side wasn’t infected as the first side was,
but the stitches gave her less of a problem and the bleeding was much
better too. She got over things
much more quickly this time and was a much happier hound far
quicker. It’s taken her a while to
get used to her tongue falling out (because there’s nothing to keep in in her mouth)!
Mind you, the mess while she’s eating is spectacular!
We had the house deep
cleaned by a lovely (and highly efficient) lady called Stacey. Over two days, she did a fantastic job
and is highly recommended (drop us a line and we’ll give you contact
details).
Ian received his Youth
Presiding Justice Training and passed that! He can now start practicing. We survived storm Boelo
with little damage – Ian’s Cobwebb lost one of its emitters, which was
annoying!
We set forth for Ardnamurcham to avoid the interminable and very
disturbing fireworks that seem to get worse every year. We just can’t understand why Government
allows the sale of explosives to rank amateurs at this time of year,
based on a religious sectarian principle, but they do so we’re stuck with
it!
