Day two of our dog fest and we take them for an early morning walk (left) to start the 'tiring out process'. This tactic worked a dream yesterday as they fought and scrapped with each other from 10.00 am until 10.00 pm. They then both slept well, in the same room, and didn't wake until about 8.00 am. Later this morning, the conversation from Jan goes, "Max, for goodness sake, leave Harry alone, can't you see he's tired. Stop eating Harry's leg." And so it goes on until they both retire to their respective corners for a refreshing 10 minute zizz. Rest over, they start again, each trying to bite or chew any part of the other dog that they can get hold of. Despite his size, Max's behaviour is gentle and still quite puppy like, he rolls onto his back to get closer to Harry, whereupon Harry will fearlessly jump on him and sink his teeth into Max's throat. It's fun to see them having such a good time, but very tiring to watch.
Will wonders never cease? They both sleep for a couple of hours at lunch time, with Harry a definite snorer. At about 2.00 pm, Round 29 begins. It is obviously a fight to the end!

In order to improve my wireless home network reception, at the far end of the house, I phone Maplin in the UK who advise me to buy an extension antenna which will be delivered in 2 to 3 days. I have already been advised separately that this might improve the coverage, so we shall see.

I don't make mistakes; I have 'senior moments'. So a senior moment it was when I drove to Quissac for some bits, only to have to go all the way back because I had forgotten my wallet. Parking the car in Quissac was quite a problem, because of the huge 'boules tournament' that was taking place in the middle of town. Boy, some of these guys are good, so we stopped for a moment and admired their skill.
