Unsuccessful Jelly, Dog Birthday, A Rat

1) Apparently in our house the answer to the eternal question: 'there's a rat in the kitchen what amma gonna do?' is 'catch it using the two-wellie-boot technique, escort it, enbooted, up the lane through the stygian darkness until the torch begins to  die, then turf it out'.  The Deliverer of Rats was Yama Bungle.  I hope he's not going to make it ( Read more... )

They are beautiful : I always feel they look like they belong to the Northumbrian renaissance : all long legs and necks.

Molls is doing really well for a retired racer, I'm really pleased. She does sleep a lot but she's still born to run. Flash is 11 so he's not doing badly either. But then he's a whippet and so a lot smaller.

Basset hounds? Basset hounds are hilarious!

I like how Philmophlegm says that there are two possible candidates for Deliverer of Rat, weighs the evidence, and comes to a conclusion that he considers almost certain, but not proved beyond all reasonable doubt. You, on the other hand, point the finger of certainty, slam the prison door, and turn the key. :-D

Bringing a rat inside to play with it is very Yama thing to do. Kjetil is a good hunter, but I don't tend to find him carrying live prey: he kills them fast, brings them into the utility room and eats their brains. Kjetil likes brains.

Yama is much more the 'it's cold and wet out here, I'll take it to play with in the living room' type. :-/

Also, it was (thankfully!) a small rat. When Kjetil catches rats they usually have more meat on them.

In many ways, we're very different people...

Well that, and you are basically Yama's henchman. I bet he told you to say that.

Beautiful running dog pics! I have yet to take a decent action shot with my camera and I've had it eleven months. Must sit down and work out manual over-rides, soon, before the local beach is open to dogs again for the winter...

Gooseberry paintstripper. *Shudders* I have yet to find a way to make gooseberries edible.

Normally I quite like gooseberries, but these are something else. You can feel your teeth dissolving!

Aperture priority is your friend!
