Thanks Bill. Did you get hip scores for your own dog?
Get the final set of needles for him tomorrow afternoon, then I think we might have to wait a week or so to take him out. Can't wait! :-)
I can't get in touch with Judith - her mobile is patched through to an answerphone system.
She said to text her.
Ooooh. this is wierd. Reading people talking about me as if I wasn't here..... which, of course, I wasn't.
For the record, I was blissfully free of mobile phone coverage whilst camping at Pant y Gadair. However, after driving 15 minutes up the road, the bleedin' thing wouldn't shut up whilst it told me about all the people who couldn't get in touch with me.
Someone has placed a jerrycan of water there too, but I doubt if I'd trust it.
The can said WATER on it but it felt empty. I wouldn't trust it either. There was a tin can too. Like a, for example, baked bean tin, but with no label. I didn't touch it .... I've seen too many scary movies to touch shiny things in dark hovelly places. (I don't think I'd have gone in there at all on my own!)

You should get one with an off switch.
