My 'Try it here' blog with one or two posts. You might want to go the real blog..its better!




This was my practice blog where I made all my mistakes first.

There might be one or two interesting things here but I think you meant to look at my real blog so click here to get you there.

Now I am using this space to help me remember Willow.

Willow 's teeth chatter....

...while I encourage her by whistling in a most unladylike fasion.

Can you hear her teeth chatter?

Scotties no more.

I can't seem to make the scottie tails video play. If you are having trouble I can't help.
Perhaps they've found out and taken exception?
So sorry.

Farewell Buster


This is Willow playing on a walk with Buster whom we shall see no more.
He is a little gentleman and belongs to the local Methodist minister and family who have now returned to Texas, taking our friend with them.
I hope he likes it in Texas and that he doesn't miss the woods of the place where he was born.
We had him to stay one night and he was quite afraid of the cats.
(This piece is to see how it looks with a right hand photo.
I quite like it do you, poor lost reader, who came here by mistake?)

a Thing I've been meaning to say.

Writing here is a bit like whispering behind my hand.
No-one reads and almost no-one comments and after all its only a tryout blog.
So here's what I'm trying out.
My memory is atrocious. If I look up a telephone number I can forget it before I've picked up the phone.
Once I met people and they told me their names and next time I met them ..I knew their name their hobbies and where they worked..now I don't even remember their faces..or even that I met them once.
Sometimes I read a blog, decide to comment and by the time I get to the comments box I've forgotten what I was going to say.
Or what I was commenting on.
It is a bit worrying I have to say. But don't worry, blogger, typepad and wordpress have a little brain training for all of us.
The verification letters.
I have failed that test so many times that sometimes I just give up. If an 'l' is lower case and all bendy how are you supposed to tell if its and 'l' or an 'I'?
I mean what would be the very worst thing that could happen if you didn't have word verification?
A lot of extra comments?
Bring 'em on.
We all want comments don't we?

The Lion and the Lamb

When there's a bit of sunshine, species doesn't matter.
Each is a little afraid of the other but will put their fears aside to stay warm.

Another one

My tryout blog is going to have a photograph now and I want it here .Don't forget you can visit my real blog here



Not here so lets upload one now and see if it will got where it should.
No, it didn't so I had to move it.
In case anyone is actually reading this I will tell you thats its the bear on the bench on Dick Lane.
This bench was put there as a memorial to a man by his wife. She puts flowers on the bench from time to time. Its a lovely addition to my walk as I can sit on it for a rest before the 'final ascent' uphill and home.
But the bear appeared in his dirty bedraggled state about February 2007. I think he dropped off the dustcart but I might be wrong. He sat there until about May then disappeared. In September he was back and has been there ever since. No one knows where he came from or where he went on his brief holiday,and he doesn't say a word.
