Pics and the vets

                

 

We had to take Nin and Barney to the Vet's yesterday ~ Nin was having his injections ~ Barney came along for the ride ~ when Lyn took Nin in Barney just sat and cried and scrabbled to get out of his cage ~ I sat in the car while Lyn went inside ~ I love to sit and watch the people going in and out ~ there was a real variety of different Dogs ~ A Great Dane ~ an Old English Sheepdog ~ a Westie ~ Yorkshire terrier and lots of Cats ~ there was one the image of Gabi who lives with Linda in Sunny Washington http://journals.aol.com/lsfp1960/LindasWorld/

With all the beautiful weather we have been having Lyn has been working hard in the garden ~ but today it has clouded over and is quite cold  hence it is a nice day to stay indoors ~

The pictures are mostly in our Garden ~ the shop window is Digbys' of Holt ~ they specialise in Weddings ~ and is such a lovely display ~ the shop is in the Royal Arcade in Norwich ~ but their Main shop is in Holt in Norfolk a beautiful Old English Town well worth a visit ~

On my screen your bright, sharp pix
came out better than any previous
photos: can't tell if it's my new (but
not top notch) computer, or your
posting of them. The pix were also larger
(for me on my screen) than ver before.

Yes, waching from the car while waiting,
stationary, can be fascinatng. For one thing,
I think most of us feel more vulnerable
walking along the sidewalk (different
word in UK I suspect) onstage so to speak,
than when seated, as audience.

The wedding shop window is beautiful Ally! I love poppies too, I used to like seeing them in the wheat field behind my house when I lived on the outskirts of Brighton. I hope Nin was good at the vets with all those big doggies! It was cold this morning but it's warmed up this afternoon here. Have a good week!

You do have some lovely flowers in your garden Ally.  I keep meaning to get busy and buy some more plants but never seem to do so.  Not even a hanging basket ..... Hugs, Terry x

Poor Barney crying for Nin as he goes in for his shots.  I'm glad you were there to comfort him.  Great shots of the roses and the garden.  I can just picture you driving that tractor, Althea.  Is the partridge the village pet?  Do people feed the poor thing?  Interesting entry!

My dog always hates to go to the Vets.  It's always a frustrating exercise getting her in to the car to make the trip.  Funny though we never have any problem getting her back in to it to go home!!!  I always love your shop window pictures and the others.  Beautiful flowers!

Your flowers are beautiful.  I would love to live somewhere as rural as that. Fancy the entrance to the vets being like that.  Great photos.

Beautiful photo's Ally, wish I could smell those roses.

Lovely pictures, Ally.  It's becoming much rarer to see poppies in the wild.
Digby's window looked mouth-watering; I love old-fashioned confectioners - and their products !!

What lovely flowers Ally, and I do love to see poppies in the fields.  What beautiful weather was that then?  It's been horrid here for a week or more, cold and windy, and the weathermen can't seem to agree on when it might get any better.
love, Angie, xx

You have the loveliest shops in the UK and beautiful flowers.  I really love the poppy field leading to the vet's.  You know, I don't think I've ever seen a partridge.  LOL...at first I thought it was a turkey but too pretty.  Love xx Chris

It seems that though Nin was the one getting the shots it was Barney feeling the pain, lol !    What you call a Partridge I believe we call a Pheasant over here.    You wrote that it is lame?  It must survive well on people's bird seed leftovers as long as it does not run into a  dog or cat.     The rose's look beautiful as do the field of poppies!    Your garden tractor looks adequate to plow up your small garden and then some.    Thank you for remembering me on my Birthday!    I turned 55.    mark

Vet trips here are a must at times...mine hate it too.
I loved all the flowers...all so pretty.  Trying to get caught up...you have a beautiful weekend...many hugs,

The flowers are just breathtaking...all so beautiful and everything looks so lush and green. Y'all must be getting sufficient rain for everything to be so wonderful looking. We have had some rain, but still not enough. Tips vet visits are always so traumatic. She does as well as any dog can when they are going for that. Good thing its only once a year!

You grow beautiful roses Ally, so perfect a shape.  I love to see flanders poppies growing free.  Hope Nin is feeling non the worse for the vet visit. Rache

Is there an echo in here?

Bea? You haven't made an entry in a while. I'm thirsty
and hungry. I stuubbed my toe. I've had moments of
depression.  There have been days since you posted
an Entry that even green leaves limped.

Should we send out a search party, folks?

Hi Ally, as usual, lovely photos. I thought it nice that the little bird cooperated and gave you a nice pose.
I like to get a bird's-eye view myself, and do a little people-watching when I get the chance. I have an opportunity tomorrow, as I have a doctor's appointment. I'll check in at the desk and go back outside :)

You take very good care of your dogs!
