Pupdate I posted mid month about Milo’s chemo, and he’s since been to the local vets to start the final cycle of this protocol. Two years on from his diagnosis it’s great that the treatment is working :) Double Whisky Burns Night at the Scotch Malt Whisky Society was a lot of fun last year, […]

Pupdate The boys have enjoyed having their people around a bit more than usual and some extra long walks. Though the weather hasn’t always been obliging. Mum’s 80th My mum’s birthday falls just before Christmas, and this was a BIG one, which called for a family gathering. My sister drove her down to join my […]

Pupdate It’s been something like the wettest February on record, which has somewhat curtailed long walks :( But the boys have still enjoyed getting out and about even if it’s meant washing their fleece coats every few days to clear off all the mud. State of Open Conference I’ve noticed a bunch of friends getting […]

Pupdate The first half of October continued the fine weather we enjoyed through September, so there were more chances for long walks through the local fields and woods. NYC My trip report for a visit to New York got a little too long for this post, so check out the standalone post if you’re interested […]

Pupdate The weather has been so nice that some days we’ve had to keep the boys to shady routes so that they don’t get too hot. But they’ve also been able to enjoy some extra long walks and running about off the lead. Back to the Big Apple Speaking at QCon NY gave me the […]

Pupdate Towards the end of the month it started staying dry enough to start returning to some of the longer ‘summer’ walks. The end for ‘Trigger’s AirPods’ In a previous post I’d mentioned that I probably should have spent my money on some new AirPods Pro rather than keeping on replacing parts of my old […]

Pupdate It’s (finally) warm enough for the boys to be walking without their coats again :) Loss The month seemed to be marked (and marred) by a number of losses. Dad My Dad died on Easter Saturday, and I heard the news from his wife just as I was getting up on Easter Sunday. After […]

Pupdate A pretty uneventful month on the chemo front; Milo had another setback, but that was almost expected this time around. Roachford Trading Boundaries is an eclectic shop not too far from my home that becomes a music venue in the evening. They get a lot of cover bands, and fragments of bands that were […]

Pupdate I shied away from mentioning that Milo was ill last month. I guess I was hoping that he’d bounce back soon, and I didn’t want to worry anybody. But January brought terrible news, as it seems he has lymphoma. He’s started chemotherapy, and I hope I get to mention what he’s been up to […]

Pupdate We finally got the sizing figured out to order the boys some Equafleece Dachsie Jumpers, which have them looking smart and keeping warm: Up North When I grew up in the North East of England everybody I knew lived at the coast. But over time, friends and family have moved on, which meant my […]
