AND YET ANOTHER month has passed for us all. Whaur does the time go?

Luckily though, before lockdown, when still in Level 1, we managed tae make a break for it and escape tae Kinlochleven.

Seeing as my pal Loki the collie lives there, we have accommodation on tap so to speak, plus, it also gave Dad a chance tae replenish his Twix chocolate bar supplies fae Lidls in Fort William.

Additionally, it was an opportunity tae meet up with pals at the MacDonald Hotel as they always have treats for me and Laoch.

Not that he deserved any as there was another dog in the bar on this occasion, and like myself, it was behaving with calm and decorum.

Laoch on the other hand was a puir embarrassment acting like a real man tart floozy tae a lady that obviously preferred the more mature type of dug such as myself.

The hotel visit did alas mean that Dad, after being ages withoot having been tae the pub, had a chance tae have a wee swally. He didn’t get the message about all things in moderation though, and I had tae drag him hame, stotting, back doon the road.

He says it was jist him getting used tae the new boots he had bought the day before. He must think I zip up the back.
