Pupdate March continued the succession of Atlantic weather front based wet and wind that’s been going on since mid October; but… it’s been warm enough for the coats stay off, at least some days. Damian Lewis I’ve loved just about everything I’ve seen Damian Lewis in, particularly Billions; so (despite his crooning of the National […]

02Mar24

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 We’re now past the second cycle of Milo’s chemo, which is covered in a separate post – complications. January brough a couple of cold but dry weeks, which has made it possible to go on longer walks without getting too muddy. Skiing A full report will follow. We’re now most of the way through […]

Pupdate I already wrote about Milo’s lymphoma going into remission, which is good :) We’re probably hitting more setbacks due to low neutrophils than last time around, but the whole process has (sadly) become routine, so it’s all less emotional and dramatic. Despite a succession of named storms we managed to get in some good […]

Pupdate Sadly Milo’s cancer is back, which I touched on the the relapse diary post. At least we caught it early with a scan, so he’s not actually been ill; and like the last time the chemo doesn’t seem to be denting his enthusiasm. The end of the month also marked the anniversary of when […]

Pupdate After returning from the Lake District last month I took a closer look at the maps of our local area and discovered some new walking routes that are right on our doorstep. The boys seem to enjoy having a good run around on them: Malaysia and Singapore There was enough to this trip that […]

Pupdate July brought us back to the Lake District, which the boys love as it means more time outdoors for extra long walks (and the odd little swim if they fancy). Once we were back Milo visited the oncologist for the end of his chemotherapy (at least for now), as he moves to monthly monitoring. […]

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 […]
