In other news, it's countdown to Berty's arrival. For anyone reading this who doesn't speak to me on a regular basis, you must be the only people unaware that we are retiring our greyhound next week, at the ripe old age of 6, to come and live with us. His retirement race is on Wednesday 19th at Romford and I am collecting him from the trainer on Friday 21st. I am SOOOOOO excited and just a little bit nervous, having only ever had self-sufficient cats for pets.
So of course, my main pre-occupation is what Bert will wear in this chilly weather. I am quite taken with these:

but quite keen on making him something myself, so am currently researching a greyhound-sized pattern. Getting my priorities right as ever.
