Week 19 - Ticks and dinner

Week beginning 4th of May

This week was fairly lacklustre after they joys of Siena. I got Claude back from the kennel. His teeth weren't too clean, so I gave him a bone, which turned out to be a mistake.

I say this because he chewed the bone for a while, then buried it. When he dug it out again two days later, his head became covered in ticks. Disgusting! I removed at least 30 ticks, and Justin removed some as well.

He is strictly on dental sticks or five minute bones from now on. I had a tick on my earlobe on our trip round Australia, and am still traumatised!

Mum and Dad came back on Saturday, earlier than originally planned, from their bike trip, to spend more time with us before their departure on the 15th of May. It was in the northeast of Italy, ending at Lake Garda.

We had an amazing dinner at Camp Di Cent Pertigh with a large group, organised by the lovely Alessandra. The food was excellent, octopus salad, saffron risotto and coconut and passionfruit pannacotta. Plus a limoncello to wash the dessert down. Great company.
