It’s a bit chilly don’t you think?
We’re getting old Flo, and feel the cold more.
I’ve always liked it here though, nice view.
It is indeed sweetheart, especially on a warm summer’s evening. It’s why we stay.
Those days are long gone though Frank, aren’t they, you know, thanks to the floods?
‘Fraid so. Times are changing, and not for the better.
Do you think anyone misses us?
Maybe.
How long’s it been Frank?
About four years I think.
Oh well, at least no-one’s thrown our chairs away.
Yeah, there is that. Even ghosts have to rest.

I am a retired number cruncher with a vivid imagination and wacky sense of humour which extends to short stories and poetry. I love to cook and am a bit of a dog whisperer as I get on better with them than people sometimes!
In November 2020, we lost our beloved Maggie who adopted us as a 7 week old pup in March 2005. We decided to have a photo put on canvas as we had for her predecessor Barney. We now have three pictures of our fur babies on the wall as we found a snapshot of Kizzy, my GSD when Hubby and I first met so had hers done too.
On February 24th 2022 we were blessed to find Maya, a 13 week old GSD pup who has made her own place in our hearts. You can follow our training methods, photos and her growth in my blog posts.
From 2014 to 2017 'Home' was a 41 foot narrow boat where we made strong friendships both on and off the water. We were close to nature enjoying swan and duck families for neighbours, and it was a fascinating chapter in our lives.
We now reside in a small bungalow on the Lincolnshire coast where we have forged new friendships and interests.

Such a sweet story. Maybe the poor ghosts can let go of their madness and explore new worlds?
Wonder what they’d make of it all? Thanks for commenting.
