Injured


Slept through until 0745h this morning! couldn't believe it! Got up to feed Ruardih and let him out what a lovely morning, warm and sunny even the automatic vents in the greenhouse were open! Graham was full of a cold and feeling mince so he stayed in bed a while, I had a lovely leisurely bath and washed my hair great. Made breakfast then made the dough for the bread before setting off to the woods with Ruaridh.
Had a lovely walk, lots of primroses and all the trees springing into life, as I had not put any cream on my face and the sun was beating down, I got burnt! Took our time and when we arrived at the bottom of the track, Ruaridh was sniffing at something, when we noticed he was holding his L) off the ground, he could not weight bear. Don't know what he had done, however Graham had to carry him back to the house. Got the bread ready Ruaridh was all over the place and appeared to be getting distreesed so onto the vet, time 1515h if we could manage the 30 mile trip to the Isle of Skye before 1600h Alan the vet would see him. 30 miles in 40 minutes on single track and country roads? we made it.
Alan the vet is great and he gave the wee fellow the once over thinks it is a sprain, two shots an antibiotic and an anti-inflammatory, followed by a seven day course of anti-inflammatory tablets.
Fingers crossed he takes them. Did a small shop at Broadford then home.
Ruaridh being very good. Had leek and potato soup followed by pizza that Layla had left for dinner- lovely.
Did a little knitting Graham feeling mince again so he went to bed early. I followed to read my book. Goodnight
