Tea and sympathy

A day can be good and bad, sunshine and shadow. I have spent time with some lovely friends - first of all Venus and Ken, with their visitor Greg (in the photo). We had a deep and far-reaching discussion about the nature of God and the meaning of suffering. Then I met Janice in Moffat - a friend for over 20 years. It was good to catch up and talk, to share our news and views.
This afternoon Jack, our dog, died peacefully and we buried him in the woods. He was the best dog, a wonderful companion to me and subject of many blips. RIP.
