FINALLY got round to replacing the old mouldy bathroom blinds with the new ones that have been waiting for an embarrassingly long time in a cupboard. New Superduper blinds had a strangely complex mounting system and incomprehensible instructions, but philmophlegm managed to work out how they fitted together, and I put them up. Hurray!
Took Duke to Tavistock shopping again, to practice walking past on-lead dogs politely. This went pretty well. As he also had two offlead walks today , he is now flat out. The morning walk was a good hour and a half involving meeting a lot of other dogs (mostly very politely, though he did leap on a Jack Russell that ran up to him. No harm done, but I would have preferred that not to happen as I suspect it helps maintain the habit :-/).
No definite home offers yet. We have now had three enquiries about him, but none of them have gone anywhere :-(
While we were in Tav. we bought AWESOME CHEESE, meat and veg. I thought about buying a jumper from a friendly shop that invited Duke in to help me look at jumpers, but after much agonising, decided not to .

Date: 2010-10-16 07:09 pm (UTC)Sharpham - a very rich brie-style Devon cheese
Exmoor Blue - a nice creamy blue, a bit more mushroomy and soft than Stilton.
Withybrook - a charcoal covered goat's cheese
And something soft and white and covered in tarragon whose name I forget.
Omnomnom...
