Yes they’re Old English Sheepdogs, my parents used to breed them, I called them my Hairy Clan. 
I’ve had them all my life, untill Dageus who was an only child and my best friend and companion.

Morning. Rox lovely dogs but they must have been a lot of hard work. I had a fringe for years and decided last year to let it grow out. Met friends for lunch yesterday but didn’t really enjoy it. Its my friends 70th birthday tomorrow so I’m off into town to get something for her.
Afternoon my lovely lassies North of Hadrian’s Wall … what beautiful dogs, so cuddly looking but energetic with it!
It’s warmer here today but pretty cloudly though still too warm for me. I’m going to have an amble down to the shops in the village but nothing too strenuous.
Afternoon Lassies, Getting humid here no sun just a heat building, was at the pool first thing then over to the Front with my latte for a bit of wave watching. Good to be getting into my early morning routine again.
The dogs coats were a lot of work but I’ve been grooming since I was a child, if you do a good groom once a week and a daily brush, taking out any knots as you go it’s easy enough. Problems start if you get lazy, I also stripped their coats off for the summer and again around October. Same with Dageus as he had the same type of double coat.

Morning, Not wall to wall sun yet, and I hope it stays that way. Heading out for lunch with the lassies today, Wick this time a place called Wickers World, it’s really nice, good food and friendly staff, and I can call in at the huge Tesco for a proper stock up on the way home. 
The ocean was almost smooth earlier when I went for my latte and wave watch, not a sight you see up here on the Front very often.
Enjoy your day folks.

Evening lasses … it’s warm …too warm for me.
I’ve just noticed I’m putting on weight. Oops, it must be all the ice cream.
Morning, Just about ready to go to the pool, it’s really hot here already, not looking forward to The heat the next few days at all. Nothing planned for today will see how things plan out.
Try and keep cool.
Morning. Going to get my eyebrows waxed this morning. Then a bit of shopping and keeping cool, I don’t like it to hot either.
Me neither … I read something somewhere that said this warm stretch, though cooling a little after weekend, is going to last a couple of weeks.
I hope it does cool, I’ve been nauseous and kind of dizzy since lunch time, lay on the bed with the fan going for a while this afternoon but it didn’t help much.
Morning. Off to Largs this morning. We’re staying overnight and back home tomorrow. Looking forward tp some fish and chips and ice cream.
Morning, Have a nice time. I’m just going to be hiding from the heat.
Can I come and hide with you? Perhaps find a quiet shady spot to share with those lovely horses of yours.
Failing that … 
… with fish and chips and ice cream!
Psst … supposed to be a little cooler tomorrow. 
Morning, Yes Morty it would be nice to have your company, lots to talk about 
The horses are hiding in the stable it’s too hot for them as well. I couldn’t manage fish n chips 
but ice cream would go down well. 
Few more clouds about today but still too hot for me, looking forward to tomorrow when it’s to break and lots of rain to fall.
I’m struggling to … rain, we want rain and it’s supposed to be much cooler still by Tuesday with lashings of the wet stuff.
It just saps your energy so much.

I hope so Morty I really hope so, only time I feel ok is when I’m at the pool, then when I’ve finished I go into the pool temp jacuzzi it’s wonderful just sitting in the cool water with an air jet thudding into the small of your back. I’ve been surprised to see people in the hot jacuzzis all week, I couldn’t bare them at all just now.

Morning. Had a nice time away with my friend. The train to Largs was really busy with a lot of people standing, glad we got on at Glasgow. It was lovely going back and walking round all the places and shops there. Raining here this morning so its back to normal here weather wise.

Morning, Dull here but not much cooler rain’s due later. I think you are a bit regretful about leaving Largs, I know couldn’t leave a lovely town like that to move to the city. Nothing planned for this afternoon might do a bit in the garden.
@Rox Crikey … is that photo a piccy of where you go? It looks grear. I can see why you love it.
@valentinojess … I’ve just googled Largs to see some pictures of the place. It looks rather lovely and unspoilt. In fact, Scotland itself has some lovely scenery.
Take heart lasses . … the weather is definitely heading towards cooler, fresher and less tiring. I was starting to feel a little yukky yesterday.Couldn’t eat a thing.
