After a tough day trying some gorgeous wines from the Clare valley, SA, we picked up some fresh bread, local cheese, ripe tomatoes and local jam and ate ourselves into blissful oblivion.

Phil just kept groaning with delight throughout the whole exercise, then just about fell asleep as soon as he got horizontal. Way to a man's heart ... :-)

Contented, had enough!

Suzie at 1 year old - very chilled in one of her favourite places to sit - the lounge windowsill. Just above a radiator and perfect for looking out of the window.

It's crazy how long this bale of balage is lasting. We gave it to them last Monday night and they are still eating it. There hasn't been a complaint yet! A bale of hay lasts 4 days, top.

The first day I brought Zephyr home. He was about 5 months old, fresh from the Washington Border Collie rescue group (although he was mostly McNab Dog, with perhaps border or aussie thrown in.) He loved his Booda bones right from the start!

I'm so happy to be done with this project.

After 20 years together, who wouldn't be?
