Salutations!!!!!

It has been a long time Dear Hearts!

A lot of water has flowed under the bridge since our last entry - this is not even figuratively speaking! Oxford has been consumed by floods, luckily the residents of Preachers Lane were not affected by the rising waters of the Thames, apart from poor Trotter who drank some flood water in a puddle and ended up with a very upset tummy indeed.

Trotter was even more upset by his visit to the vets, even though it was Cameron Forbes who examined him. Mr Forbes, (otherwise know as Mr Cambell Gore) loves Trotter and is always upset by Trotters fevered reaction to him.

This time was no exception, as Trotter leapt like a bucking bronco on the examination table, leaving me and Mr Forbes covered in hair, although thankfully none of Trotters skanky dreadlocks snapped off because it would have been awful if we had found ourselves wearing them like moustaches.

Mr Forbes could find nothing apparently wrong with our boy but erred on the side of caution and gave him antibiotics, just in case. We have been feeding these to our boy disguised in cheese to take the edge off them.

Lulu was poorley the week before that, although it was not flood water that caused the damage. Truly Scrumptious Lulu, the chubbiest dog in the west was infact so poorly that she was pushing her food bowl away with her nose and staring at you in an accusatory fashion for daring to bring it near her when she was so ill. As a result the chubster has lost quite a considerable amount of weight and now has a waist, if you look at her in a good light and at the right angle.
