Diary of an Edinburgher

Tennis

With Murray's tennis match due on about midday, Archie and I didn't go too far this morning, just took a wander down to the Meadows. It was sunny, and in my fleece, scarf and hat, it was pleasant enough... Is it really June??

We met a few dogs, including a bouncy 5 month old Rottweiler, who was a bit too boisterous for Archie... He also played with Woody the cockapoo, whom we've met before. But while Woody's dad and I were chatting, they both ran away off to the benches, where ignorant people just leave their leftover lunches and other rubbish. I called Archie, and he came straight back, but Woody did not seem to hear his dad calling him, and in fact ran away off along the path. I last saw dad trying to catch up with him as he scampered off even further. Good boy, Archie!

We're meeting up with a couple more prospective dog borrowers this week. One couple have an eight year old girl, which will be good for Archie, so I hope it works out.

Here he is, smiling by some daisies which were hanging over the pavement.
