Many congratulations on your wedding, albeit a little belatedly. Delighted to hear that all is well with you both up there in your northern fastness. Hope some day to catch up, either there or in the warm south. All's well here too. It's the usual madhouse of hard-luck-story dogs, including our most recent arrival, a 10-stone Newfoundland. He's very affectionate but unfortunately supplied without brakes. He's also a Bear of Little Brain.

Love and all good wishes

Caroline
