Rover and Amazon are still much the same but they are getting older, though no more sensible. We are surrounded by cats here, which is not good, but there is a sensible attitude to fireworks, which seem to only be used very close to Bonfire night and not to continue after 10pm, which is a real blessing.
I took this picture of Rover recently in Whittle Dene near Ovingham, which is a walk that they have known since they were puppies and is probably about as far from us in Hexham as it was when we lived in Newcastle.
