Laughter is the best medicine

Today's photo is of the unowned? unmaintained land between the street and the cemetery, where Rufus can be off lead for a while to 'read the news' from bush to shrub -  he spent so long sniffing almost every tuft of growth, that I think an entire herd of undefined creatures must have partied here last night. 

After a quiet day, it was a very not quiet evening at Jackie and Nick's villa - a very short walk for the woofer and me - and with their friends Lola and Lyn  the five of us had a hilarious evening playing cards - Nomination Whist - while Nick kept our glasses full. I haven't laughed so much for ages - at one point of collapse we were so loud that Rufus woke up. We must have looked very funny - five hysterical humans - but I don't think he was as amused as we were.
