Trail Art, Secret Plans, and Our Last Walk (For Now)
It is always a bit sad wrapping up a dog sitting stint. Today is the final day of our adventures together as the pooches mum comes back today, so we made sure to get in one last proper outing. A light

Fields, Woods and Four Paws
Armed with a jacket and an enthusiastic labrador, we took to the fields today for a proper local walk. Our walk took us through very colourful woodland (thanks to the overnight rain) and out across fields

Fungi Friday: After the Rain and Through the Brambles
Wearing shorts on a woodland walk turned out to be a slight mistake today. Thick brambles lined parts of the path, making it impossible to get close to some of the fungi without taking a few scratches.

A Puddle Splashing Walk Through the Woods
I set off on a walk with the pooch this morning. Rain from earlier left big pools of muddy orange water along the track. The pooch, being a typical labrador, didn’t mind one bit and walked right through

Damp Fields and Morning Zoomies
Day five of dog sitting was a damp one. Rain had fallen overnight, so the fields were completely soaked. Instead of walking all the way down the fields to the road, where I would have needed to put the

Spotting the Small Things on the Trail with the Pooch
Day four of dog sitting was just another normal walk for me. I walk every single day anyway, so getting outside is nothing new. Having a dog along simply meant I had welcome company on my usual route.

Dog sitting for a friend this week means morning walks. Last night brought a heavy storm with thunder and lightning, but the temperature stayed quite mild. By the time we stepped out onto the fields today,

This morning felt like autumn for the first time. It was cloudy and misty, but we warmed up once we actually started walking. I am dog sitting right now, so getting out early before the weather turned

Beer Saturday: Playing Butler to a Cat and Badly Pouring a Good Guinness
After a weekend spent house sitting and playing butler to my friend's cat, I was very kindly given some lovely thank you presents. One of them was a bottle of Guinness Original, which is one of my favourites.

Small Details on a Summer Walk
It was sunny and bright, so I decided to head out and spend an hour walking around the local nature reserve. The weather was far too nice to stay indoors, and I wanted to get some fresh air. As I walked

Caturday: Cats, Antibiotics, and the Great Pill Hiding Struggle
I’m cat sitting at my friend’s house for one night, but I've realised cats haven’t got very good timing! The day before I arrived, Ralph managed to get into a fight. He’s a bit of a Slim Jim, so I think
