Finally it rains, after a run of hot sunny (but breezy) days. This seems to send all the normal dog owners scurrying for cover, so we meet precisely nobody out on our dog walk.
Dad and Mum have more luck out after supper, assessing gardens for "Gardening for Wildlife", and come home smelling strongly of Creek and even more strongly of Lhasa Apso. They were down by the creek at a garden and welcomed enthusiastically by Lola (She was a show girl), India and Bacchus.
The lady, unusually, got the "Deefer" thing straight away. Most people look at Mum or Dad a bit strangely, and try out pronounciations around "Diva" just in case "we" are saying it wrongly. Not this lady - she was straight in with "Ah... as in "D" for Dog ?"
That's the garden assessing all done for 2008. Now just one village to go in Village of the Year (Environmental Action), and we can have the undivided attention of Mum and Dad back!
