A slow thaw

Thursday, January 8th, 2009

The weather is turning milder at last. The ice on the canal has nearly melted and the sun has been shining a bit. We managed to fill up with water at last. I can have a shower, and so can Paul. He has a lot of travelling this week – to York, Bristol and London.

Eddie hasn’t been well, a bit sicky still. John our vet did some blood tests and results show that Eddie has a virus. He is eating well though, and seems to have plenty of energy so we will just keep and eye on the little chap. I let Eddie out for short bursts. He only has a puppy coat and so gets cold quickly.

Half way through and we have had to break a day early; I am finally succumbing to the flu germs and Eddie has reached critical excitement levels….

We started off by going to my sister Lucy and family for more panto fun with the Crankies on Tues 23rd. Lucy cooked a lovely meal for us all, and Eddie helped with the washing up

We stopped off to see Helen and Millie in Dartington on the way back. Eddie had a great time playing with a 6 month old Bichon puppy called Shanty. She was a big girl, but Eddie held his own. Then exhausted we all headed back to the boat. Our apologies to Von and Liz for missing them today, but we will get down to Devon again soon.
