How I Trimmed My Bush

How I Trimmed My Bush

April 2020 – My Husband (Steve) bought me a bush trimmer for Christmas so I thought now as I have plenty of time to spare during the “Lockdown” I would give it a good workout.

This was the first time that I wanted to try this out, but unfortunately due the nature of the bush and it’s density it was not “man” enough to do the job and I had to use another tool to complete the job.

After a while I managed to shape it the best I could and here is the finished result. [Read more…] about How I Trimmed My Bush

Steve and I decided to take a short break to France on from 5th September 219 – 8th September 2019.  A break without our 2 year old dog Archie,  which would be a first as over the past 2 years we have taken dog friendly holidays in England.  Adrian our Son was going to look after him for the 4 days while we were away.

We booked through Brittany Ferries on the overnight crossing from Plymouth to Roscoff on the Pont-Aven which should have left at 8.45 p.m.  However if all is running well there is early boarding and a lovely way to start the holiday is a to have a nice meal on board in the Flora Restaurant, which we were looking forward to.

Clumberdoodle Archie's Family Day OutClumberdoodle Archie’s Family Day Out

A couple of our younger family members were on holiday down in Devon and Archie was invited over to see them.  Since we had him they have been his number one fans and every time they come down from their homes in Yorkshire they always want to see him and get very excited.

They really would like a dog of their own (but Mum and Dad not so keen just yet) so thought it might be a good idea to give them insight into what owning and looking after a dog involves, (which might change their minds!!).

Clumberdoodle Archie Is Top Dog Well Crossbreed At 2019 Cornwood ShowPupdate 24th August 2019 – Clumberdoodle Archie Is Top Dog –  Well Crossbreed At 2019 Cornwood Show

The annual Cornwood Agricultural Show is a local show which is held about 2 miles away from where we live in Ivybridge, Devon, that we like to support.

Along with farm animals, trade stands and various displays going on, there is also a family dog show which takes place in one of the rings.

It was due to take place this year on 10th August 2019, but had to be rescheduled due to the very stormy and windy weekend weather that was forecast.

It was rescheduled to the 24th August 2019 (bank holiday weekend) and the weather could not have been different, as it turned out to be a heatwave.
