Well, I expect you can guess where this is going….. Daisy, Floss and I went on a dog walk and, obviously, Monster came too…… in the snow….. whinging all the way. I title this “One Girl and Her Cat”. We always waited for Monster to catch up. He likes to lag behind, whining. There was […]
Winter Walk | My Shetland
A brief glimpse at the sun this morning and it was a busy day ahead. The plumber was here for most of the morning trying to resurrect our boiler (only 24 years old) to limp through another winter, while we are on the list to have a new one installed in spring. While the plumber […]

Another Family Walk | My Shetland
A nice quiet dogwalk I told myself. That’s what I wanted. Only it wasn’t what I got. Monster was determined to come too, despite me deciding to go and check the furthest gate at the furthest point of this 45 acre field. It’s a long walk. Here are the two dots – Pepper was way […]
Dog Walk Flowers | My Shetland
Most days I drive to Leradale to give the dogs a good run. The grass is not too high and they love it there. Suddenly it feels like autumn is on its way, which is a bit early in my book. It’s the colour – there has been a subtle change. It’s definitely there. Still, […]
Another Walk (sorry!) | My Shetland
Daisy’s last day and she joined us on our regular cat/dog walk. Look at him go! We don’t actually go very far because everyone just wants to mooch around playing in the stream…. …. or finding an island to make their own. And then we laughed and laughed when we noticed Monster was in hunting-mode. […]

Another Walk | My Shetland
The dog walk is daily. And different folk join us depending on who is around. Today it was Harrel-the-Barrel who jogged along behind. And then Maggie, his mother, joined him. They are a dear little team of two and I sat down on a dry rock for a hug from them both. This was the […]
A Sunny Spring Walk | My Shetland
Fed the zoo at Leradale and came home, knowing a dog-walk was next on the agenda. Or cat, depending on your perspective. I laughed at the running. So sweet. I looked behind and saw just how the sheep get under the fence, despite the gate being open. Everyone but Ster who can’t. The seggies – […]
An Unusual Walk | My Shetland
My job, at the moment, amongst many, is to walk the dogs and possibly the cat. So off we set, Monster, Pepper and Ted. Everyone wearing their hi-viz! Nothing to see here. Move along! Stealth cat. Monster clambered through the fence, whining. He got a bog-brush tail from the surprise of it all (we haven’t […]
