Jill's leg is a lot better,she can walk without the stick, she went into Kirkwall on Monday morning to see the specialist from Aberdeen Hospital, He was very pleased with her progress and there was no need to see him again, unfortunately the weather turned very windy so the police closed the barriers to traffic. Jill caught the two o'clock bus but this was turned back at No 1 Barrier, as the waves were still to rough and coming over the road, they eventually opened the road at four o'clock and Jill arrived home at five o'clock ,nine hours after leaving home.
Buster is growing fast, Jill measured him the other day and he was 86cm long and 34cm around the belly, we have been unable to weigh him as he will not keep still.
The bird watching has been very good, with north easterly wind's bringing in migrants from Scandinavia .
and all the winter birds returning ,the fields are filling with Golden Plover,Lapwing and a whole lot more.
Waxwing
Pectoral sandpiper.
Last but not Least.
Jill will be returning to Bristol for Christmas , she will arrive on the 17th of December and return on the 7th January ,I will be staying here as I do not think it is right to put a puppy in kennels for three weeks.
Marcus has decided to return with Jill on the 7th and stay for ten days.
Well that's all for now, cant think of anything else, so will post again before Christmas.
