And another roller coaster ride ....

The week started OK but steadily went down hill following a falling out with a neighbour over a dog that was off lead (don't ask). We then had a dog brought in for rehoming who's owner announced as I was about to say hello to him in the back of the car "oh by the way you can't touch him"!!!!!! To be fair to the dog I think there were possibly some underlying pain issues going on due to a serious spinal defect, but faced with no option but to leave him here ... to say I spent the rest of the day with a headache is probably all you lot need to know. However all was redeemed today with a mini reunion of some of the guys Dizzy was in the Spinal unit with in 1984. Four of them got together, some of which hadn't seen each other in over 20 years

This motley crew contain Dizzy, Dave Howard, Tim Claire and Geoff Holt MBE. Dave's wife cooked us a fabulous meal and it was so nice to relax and catch up with everyone, we even got to feed the fish in the lake at the bottom of the garden, about 20 trout that were more than happy to pop their heads up for some dog biscuits - just amazing.
