A Very Suffolk Summer

Hi everyone

I knew you wouldn't want to wait long for my next blog, so here it is. Spoiler alert don't get too excited! But however I will bring you up to date.

It's almost summer

Late May and the Corn is growing in Suffolk

Another walk with Enzo

Not sure if I told that we brought Auntie Jean's Ka, it's a tight squeeze in there, glad we don't have to use it for road trips!

Shingle Street in sepia






A new walk from Martlesham to Bealings. We ran under the railway line

And under the A12




Swimming at the viewpoint Felixstowe

There goes the foot ferry to Harwich and Shotley

A trip to Framlingham to look at log burners (watch this space) and then a walk around the Castle




Hello what's this?

Fire her up boy!

Easy like Sunday in Shingle Street





Great start to the day

Us three are really pissed off. We entered a competition to win a bag of Skinners food on Instagram

Posted a couple of 'Winning photos' and guess what? We never heard a word ffs - they didn't even put a like on our post. Don't worry we might have another go - you know what Labs and food are like!

Prickly pups

Swimming at the newly opened Cove at the Dog Orchard with Maisy


Time for some maintenance on the Lockdown. We've also got electric in there now so it could be a good all year round hangout

The Fair comes to Kesgrave

The barriers are down so it must be Sunday







Enzo loves a can

Sunrise at Shingle Street










Good ol' boy, Sam came home to look after all three of us in July so we didn't have to go in the kennels

Max and Steph were in Germany and there was an overlap when mum and dad went off to Italy

Then we went to stay at Enzo's 

We also went to the Cove

Luth loves to scramble up the bank and run around rather than get out on the shingle and he has been limping ever since, we think it may be an old war wound from when he cut his shoulder open at Felixstowe after running into a Groin a few years ago

'You're a bad boy Enzo!'. He chewed the spout of a watering can, played tug of war with it while it was under the tap and cracked the water butt, you can see it dripping

Life's a pitch - getting ready for the new football season lol

Enzo's outa jail - dad mended the water butt and trimmed the watering can

We went down to the viewpoint at Felixstowe on the August Bank Holiday Sunday to see the world's largest container ship - they just keep on getting bigger. I don't know how many times we have seen 'The worlds largest container ship!' 

This is the MSC Loreto which is 400 metres long, 61.3 metres wide and can carry 24,346 containers

It was due to leave at 11am that day but they were still loading it so we didn't see it go

I got to wonder what was in all of those containers whilst I was swimming

So we put a poll on our Instagram account, here's the results

Enzo came to stay but he didn't get to sleep on our blanket!

Dad got the job of taking him to Newmarket for an eye examination

I don't know if I've told this already. Max and Steph are going to stud him and he has had his hip scores done, which were good, he's now passed his eye test so he's ready to rumble! What a boy - I'm told that he'll have bitches come round to his house for a shag and then get paid for it, good work if you can get it! I wonder if it's too late for me an Luth?

Remember the Skinner's competition earlier?

We've had another go

I'll let you know if we win - but I'm not holding my breath

Me an' Enz in my woods. Luther has been on bed rest again and hasn't been out for a couple of weeks apart from swimming

Apparently we're off on holiday soon so he'll need to be fit to survive

Talking of swimming we took Enzo down to the viewpoit

The Lorenzo's gone

'I see no ships'


Luther's in his element today, when we go out for a walk and leave him at home he puts his sad face on

Three happy wet dogs

That's it, all up to date as I promised in my last blog.
We're going on a roadtrip and all I know about it is that it's somewhere stupid or daft. I'll let you know exactly where and how we got on next time.
So until then be good - like me!

Lots of love from

Rudie THE Dog xx
