On an even milder and windier day, walking with Della to take Sam to her school bus stop and then time with Sally helping with political power issues and appointing Peter Brown as the new handyman
It was even milder today that the last few days but then even windier still as I got up early so as to be ready and out to give Sam a good chance to avoid fouling his kennel. He was quite recovered from what I think was the effect of the cheese on Sunday and, though loose, was getting better all the time.

Out with Sam in my waterproofs on a mild and very wet morning after which I worked on my 2000D Navigator.
Off to Bedford this afternoon where we saw Richard Attenborough's latest film, "Shadowlands" starring Sir Anthony Hopkins.
The government still struggling with a problem of their own making; namely the dispute with other E.E.C. members over the voting arrangements
The weather continued mild again today but it was also very wet this morning when I struggled out with Sam in my waterproofs. Poor thing still had a tummy upset and I had to swill out his run before we could get going but I let him off of waterwork as a result. Funnily enough, Sam gave no other indication of being off colour and I wondered if it was the quantity of cheese used in his tracking lesson that led to his problem.

A day of handyman interviews after my normal dog training session before I encouraged Daniel off to his first day at work where he did well enough. He just wants a fast video card for his birthday!
A major aftershock in Los Angeles, one of many following the San Fernando earthquake, whilst John Major and Douglas Hurd have got themselves into a hole over the enlargement of the E.E.C.
At this "Vernal Equinox", the weather is still dry and sunny and, even if the breeze is from the east and a bit chilly, it is a pleasure to be out and about. I got Sam swimming both morning and afternoon, but he still messed about a little bit for each first occasion he went in. Some more dummy-holding practice and he was obedient overall.

Off to Bower Hill Epping for dog training with Martin when Sam completed a couple of simple tracking tests very well. Home to Paxton for a late tea of left-overs in the lounge and then I writing up these last two days' journal after making a few telephone calls
Another nice sunny day for my outing to Epping but first Diana and I slept in very late and it was after 9.00am before I was up and into the bathroom. Normally Diana is long gone from my bed in the morning and so I had to tarry a while with her first! A quick wash and shave, dressed, bowl-full of cereal and then a short walk with Sam before setting off with him in the car.
