This is a mixture of watercolour and pastel and is of the Wansbeck, a local river where we spent most of our childhood – a time of wartime restrictions and no home entertainment beyond board games. In those days we fished for food rather than sport. Regardless, it was great fun.

And then with a thud to the back of my head came blackness. / Waking to find myself face down on the floor, I could hear the grating wheeze of the dogs laughter and the tinkling of broken glass falling from my back as I rose to my knees. I rubbed a tender spot at the base of my skull, and then my eyes. / Through a haze of dust and feathers the scene before me gradually came into focus. The frenzied attack on my host continued, and it was clear that despite his bravery, his efforts to fend of the relentless beasts had become futile. / However, at the very same moment his eyes had suggested a man resigned to his fate, with a swipe of his glove he was able to buy himself enough time to reach into his overcoat and pull out a large shiny object which he tossed into the air. / The object – a medal of the grandest order- fell at the feet of the sniggering hound. The dog looked down at the prize and breathed out a deep sigh of smug satisfaction. “Well…” gurgled his battle worn master, by now at the limits of his patience: / “DON’T JUST STAND THERE LIKE AN OVER GROWN FRICKIN GOOFBALL…D-O-O-O SOMETHING!!!!!”

A faithful hound in a small seaside town in southern England.
Two retrievers attentively watching two fishermen on Lake of the Woods, Ontario. The dogs, particularly the little one, want to go in and retrieve the lures. / The little brown one went along on one fishing trip. As soon as the lure hit the water, she dove out of the boat and started swimming toward the it. Fortunately we were able to pull her back into the boat before she connected with the lure. No more fishing trips for that one! /
Aren’t they cute….

I Heard these words echoing below from / A Salty Dog by Procol Harum One of the most beautiful mystical songs I have ever heard (brooker / reid) please go to You tube & see this performed Copy & paste When there click videos & look below to see A Salty Dog video http://www.jango.com/music/Procol+Harum?l=0 Here are the lyrics… all hands on deck, we’ve run afloat!’ I heard the captain cry / ‘explore the ship, replace the cook: let no one leave alive!’ / Across the straits, around the horn: how far can sailors fly? / A twisted path, our tortured course, and no one left alive We sailed for parts unknown to man, where ships come home to die / No lofty peak, nor fortress bold, could match our captain’s eye / Upon the seventh seasick day we made our port of call / A sand so white, and sea so blue, no mortal place at all We fired the gun, and burnt the mast, and rowed from ship to shore / The captain cried, we sailors wept: our tears were tears of joy / Now many moons and many junes have passed since we made land / A salty dog, this seaman’s log: your witness my own hand
