This is the Bonnie I'll be bliping with....

...she's approaching nine in human years, and if my 7 times table is correct that makes her getting on for 63 in dawg years. But you'd hardly know it by looking at her, and she still has two or three gears to her engine when chasing balls or pink frisbies. (more of these later!)

The main reason for starting this Blip is to take my mind off the fact that both of our girls are now in full time education. Although I wish they weren't there have been days lately when the end of the holidays couldn't have come soon enough. But now they are back I'll be talking to the dog a lot more!

The other major factor is to keep in touch with family and friends further afield, especially those on the west coast of the US of A.

Furthermore I relish the challenge of posting everyday, but inevitably this may not happen.

......Also I'm hoping it will enable me to keep seeing rather than just looking. I'm thinking winter blips could be a challenge.
