Sunday

Today was overcast and rainy to start but then the sun came out. I was allowed to invade the "coffee club" once again - Sundays they get donuts and fruit and the president (Old Tony) allowed me to attend their high level meeting once again. Another Tony has arrived so now there's an Old Tony and a New Tony (another Brit I believe). There were a few new (to me) faces - Dog Trainer Bill for one. Trains animals for TV, movies, rich people. I'm puzzled as to why these men don't seem inclined to use last names. I guess it's too much of a strain on the brain LOL. I haven't heard of any nicknames for the women - but maybe I'm not meant to know. I can imagine what some of them might be and I think it's best kept secret.

Took a canal tour in the dinghy this afternoon. There are lots of canals but they're not all joined so you have to go out into the ocean to get to another system. Dropped in on Nick, hopefully will have a photo or 2 to put up later. I believe they now have over 40 dogs since the mothers gave birth this week. One would think this would involve kennels but no, they're all over the house.

Betty and Brent served up a delicious meal of lobster and fish last night - thanks again. This is a photo of one of the victims (supplied by Betty). Well, not one we ate but a dear relative.
