Is she nutty as a Springer?

Yes we did - thanks. She's still using a crate and although she was a little bit reluctant to go in it, all was fine and she slept right through. She's lovely. R would like a Cocker Spaniel really but I'd prefer another Lab. Compromise? A Cockador perhaps? :hungover:

Well my day so far..... All the smaller patio pots are now on the patio table because in a "quiet" moment (always a mistake to ignore a quiet moment) Nina unplanted several fuchsias and relocated them to the floor of the utility room. I've decided to just let her play with the gardening gloves...

We've got Nina for 4 whole days starting from 06:00 this morning! I am exhausted! Will report back later but I've had more exercise in 6 hours than I've had in the past 6 days.

A dog of character. Little imp!

Hi Fiona, Thanks but not really met by Nina, although we are baby sitting her for 4 days shortly. I think I may be allowed another Lab as a Golden Wedding present but I'm concerned that my OH may be being too loving and I don't want to impose a Lab puppy on her selfishly. Anyway we'll see...

A photo pops up from the archives every day on my phone as a default from Microsoft Onedrive. This one popped up this morning. 1 year and a bit old! 👍

Ah! The super long nose and weird eyes! :rofl:

I kicked off with a Canon EOS 100 with the amateur market lenses. This was a film camera. The picture quality was always average and I put it down to me rather than kit. I then dabbled with medium format for a while with a Bronica SQA and a good 50mm Sony Lens. The results could be...

Just resubmitted with some final minor tweaks. 👍 Deadline for submission is 30 May with Judging on 3rd June.

Per Fiona's suggestion and slightly rotated.

Thanks everyone - the Lightning Tree it is then. No sign. It's the top part of a dead oak that's gradually been breaking up over the last few years. The ravages of this winter has made it look quite dramatic. I'll try taking the same image on the other side of the gate - maybe use it in...

This round is just 2021. Photos must be taken this year. Nothing from the archives.

I'm in a dead heat with two other people leading a photography competition with one round to go. So it all hangs on the last photo entry where I could drop out of the running or get at least third place. I've got two photos and not sure which to submit. I'm inclined to the one called "The...

I would definitely recommend having a go at this. I don't know this particular course but it looks good. And I don't think it's at all essential to have super expensive kit to get good results. Quite a few smart phones, for example, have a proper camera mode where you can work the phone...

Happy birthday Homer! 🐾 🐾

If you've ever doubted wanting a dog in your life just babysit a puppy for a few hours. :pull:

We had my son's cockapoo for the afternoon yesterday. She's now 5 months old and lovely and at the "not quite fully set" stage if you know what I mean. Still very puppy squiggly. We took her for a walk over the fields and let her off the lead as soon as we were in a safe location. She's...

Here's a picture of our grandpuppy acclimatisation day 2. Success I think and Lady's old bed is plenty big enough!

At my son's house. A rare asleep moment.
