Tam n pups winter trip 2022

[Northernraider]

Are you sure its the foot? Has the dog been bounding about? Cruciate ligament possibly.

I cant be absolutely sure but it seems to be , you can see her putting it down then immediately lifting it again , but nothing visible and shes not licking it or anything

 

[Northernraider]

Right hand drive as well, which is odd. Did you catch the make?

I didnt there wasnt any badges on it , I thought at first it was an old ford but might not be . It's very cool though , I'd run that with the paintwork how it is , but a new wooden back ,nice set of wheels

thats odd as you say Tam, what caused Milo's cut? was there glass about? and poss Ela has a tiny slither which she can only feel when there is pressure on it.

Milos was caused by me accidentally standing on him because hes daft and keeps going on front of my feet, elas I'm not sure what shes done, but I've had a good poke about and cant see anything at all

she was simply a vision from heaven with long Auburn hair down to her waist

Ah, knowing your luck she'd turn round and you'd find out she's a BOBFOC.

Just found out maybe why it's right hand drive...

Until 1924, some places in Spain, such as Barcelona, drove on the right, while others, including Madrid, drove on the left. As you came into towns, signs warned drivers if they had to change sides.

Well spotted its actually fiat


Bit of research and i think it's a fiat 501 truck circa 1920

Old cars were so much more stylish .

Finally got hold of Nico the vet , he says he will phone Monday morning to arrange a time on Monday afternoon to.see the dogs passports and take the bloods , I hope he remembers to call though as he never called today when he told me he would. The Spanish people seem to go from being so relaxed their almost horizontal to impatient crazy men like the one in the petrol station lol.

I told him I'll let him know Monday morning where I am as not sure I'll stay here tomorrow night

Here you go Tam, build yourself a fifth wheeler! Get a bodybuilders to put a box on this and you'd be well away!

That's a fecking yoke and a half Tam! Thought you were coming down in size, not going up!

 

[Just smiffy]

So I've finally been to mercadona, that's changed a little too but still my preferred supermarket in Spain. Bought 2 bottles of the red wine I like from there ...mostly so I can drive it around Europe for a few years like I've done with the bottles I bought in Greece last year lol

Should have got a few cans of Guinness….

I'm not buying it I'm just curious

bobandjanie I meant to say yesterday but forgot with doggy drama , if you're not busy it would be good to say hello in person , I can offer you proper British instant coffee and the Spanish equivalent of a rich rea biscuit I'm parked at the first set of coordinates you gave me , haven't decided if I'm going to move today or not yet.

Sorry about the delay just got back with the dogs, I was so busy worrying about taking my walking pole I forgot my phone, a little dog was attacked where we are yesterday by a German Shepherd that someone was walking by driving the car and the dog running loose.
And the two little buggers we are looking after don't like dogs it seems apart from our Izzy.

Yes love to meet up, Janie has just made a coffee, so let me know when your about. Bob.

I'm back at the van now , we've just been for a walk along the promenade ( surprisingly busy) but it started to spit with rain a little and milo and ela still limping so we retreated. So anytime suits

 

[Northernraider]

How is Ela & Milo this morning ?

Ela not limping quite as much and it doesn't seem to be bothering her too much as she's still full of beans and mischief, milo is going between being fine one minute to lifting his leg completely of the ground the next minute but I think he might be playing on it a little for the sympathy lol. Trying not to walk them too much for a day or two till they get back to normal

 

[Northernraider]

I remember visiting here before more now we've been for a walk down the front , I was travelling with dave and Marsha the first year I was here , I remember having lunch and a few drinks in the bar at the end . It's surprisingly busy along there this morning, lots of brits about and lots of doggies. A few Brit diehards in shorts flip flops and shirtless lol ...I had my t shirt tucked In a jumper and my waterproof coat on lol ...I must be climatising or something

 

[CaptainPaul]

Looks like you got out just in time Tam.... lol

Now here's something strange , a guy just pulled up in a car , he got out had a look around him. Then bent down lifted the cover of a manhole/drain had another look around then opened the back door of his car lifted a box out sat it in the manhole ,put the cover back on and drove away .


Now I'm thinking, was it drugs? , money? A box of kittens or puppies?

And the latter option is making me want to go lift the drain cover and look

Police or walk away, would be my call, if it’s drugs you don’t want to get involved.
Could get nasty.

Police could be an option I guess

The thought of it being an animal is bothering me .
