Hi there, Ruby here. I’ve dictated this to my Dad, hope he’s got the story straight! Boy, its been a couple of very eventful weeks – abandoned, severely chastised and the huge mistake that is the new deck. Let’s start at the beginning. I now realise that my day care experience at Margate Dog Resort …
Hi friends, Ruby here providing an update on my social life here in Tasmania. When my red harness appears I am pretty sure something good is about to happen ( except when it means the vet, but even the vet means treats – silver lining to every cloud). So when I was snapped into it …
Dear Friends, Ruby here, and for once I am speechless. My domain is being overrun with wildlife, and I am beside myself trying to keep everything under control. Let’s go back a bit. When we arrived I had a ‘not in Orange anymore’ moment. The smells, the terrain, the sounds – all different. But I …
Today’s blog is by our gorgeous friend Marian who has recently been visiting with Nigel ( referred to below as ‘himself’). You know how it works. You need to get somewhere and the quickest way is the steepest way so the zigzag tact is deployed. I can say by Day 3 of our Bruny adventure …
Today’s guest blogger is our friend Nigel who has been visiting for the past few days. Such a delight to share Bruny with him and Marian. It was almost 12 months to the day since we’d seen last seem them ( in person) when we’d caught up for lunch in London. Wednesday 20 January .After …
Hi Friends, Ruby here to bring you greetings and best wishes for 2021 from an island, off an island, off an island at the bottom of the world. Now I don’t want to sound like some sort of New Year Grinch, but really I don’t know what all the fuss is about. In fact I …
Hi Everyone, Ruby here writing after an exhausting day of training at which I proved all the naysayers wrong. I was a star! Let’s go back a step. Many of you will be unaware that I have been enrolled in a program called “See snake and run” for several weeks. The concept is to keep …
Four weeks today since we hit the road south and we’re still paying for it – literally! In our first post Ruby related how we’d had to stop in Young to have a piece of blue metal removed from behind the brake pads. She’s still revelling in the independence she showed throughout the whole incident …
Home-quarantine only lasted 2.5 days but that was 2 days too long for the youngest member of the Richards’ family who saw, and seized the opportunity to slip past an unsuspecting human and out into the world of Dennes Point! After a bit of ‘hide and seek’ around the grounds of Wainui (the name of …
Hi Everyone, Ruby here. Mum and Dad asked me to post as they are quite exhausted after our 32 hour, 1,530 km marathon. They want you to know we arrived safely but not without incident! I was sleeping quietly, strapped in on the back seat, when the front wheel began making a strange noise. We …
