Well my birthday came and went and I'm now Twelve! I'm in denial a bit so before I tell you what it's like to be so old we need to get in the time machine and travel back to Aldeburgh a few months ago!
 |
| June 21st to be precise - the longest day (I remember talking about this date when we were at Stonehenge) |
 |
| Anyway we had a swim, they all had beer and fish 'n' chips, we got the scraps so everyone went home happy |
 |
| Ever wondered what it's like in the back of a car? |
 |
| A Super Sunday |
 |
| Another wet summer's day |
 |
| The smell of the sea at Shingle Street is like perfume to us |
 |
| Our happy place |
 |
| Luther with his favourite toy |
 |
| Fynn Valley with Maisie |
 |
| I've never met such a dirty bitch before - she loves the mud! |
 |
| Four black labs - another play date in Fynn Valley, this time with Jed & Percy |
 |
| Getting ready for Euro 2024 |
 |
| Come play with me |
 |
| Luther never leaves mum and dad alone when they're in the garden no matter what they're doing |
 |
| The eternal triangle |
 |
| I had a lovely reunion with Jimmy in the summer, I hadn't seen him since I met him and Sam in Woodbridge when they were on a pub crawl when I was a puppy. He's the one who christened me 'Rudie THE Dog' |
 |
| Alphabet treats lol! |
 |
| An overnight to trip Dunwich in Ramavan |
 |
| Beer 'o' clock |
 |
| Aldeburgh beach the next day |
 |
| The 'Solidarity with Ukraine' pebbles on the beach in front of The Angel of the East |
 |
| Our messages |
 |
| We love the scraps |
 |
| Before you know it we're back in Aldeburgh for an overnighter in Ramavan |
 |
| Walking onto Orford Island |
 |
| Luth posing by the Martello Tower |
 |
| Tea time |
 |
| Morning campers |
 |
| Treat me please |
 |
| A circular walk to Thorpeness |
 |
| And a swim of course |
 |
| Making the most of what good weather we did have in the summer with a few days in of all places Norfolk |
 |
| 'There's a circus in the town...' |
 |
| 'Cor look Rude' |
 |
| 'Yeah boi!' |
 |
| We went on a big walk along the beach from Mundesley to Cromer |
 |
| Lot's of places to play in the sea defences |
 |
| Christ what's that and how did it get there? |
 |
| 'Overstrand and sea' |
 |
| 9 miles later and we arrived in Cromer |
 |
| Tractor boys |
 |
| F**K me 50p for dogs, that's a bit off - me an' Luth have never been charged to go on a bus before! |
 |
| Now they don't want us on their beaches |
 |
| The windmill at Mundesley |
 |
| Another no go! |
 |
| At last |
 |
| Luth in a pensive mood |
 |
| Stopping off at Happisburgh on the way home |
 |
| Back home in my wood |
 |
| Cheers. We're all getting excited for the new football season and being in the Premier League, especially dad. He got these pictures of us made in the new Ipswich shirts, I'm in the home one |
 |
| Pretty in pink! Me an' Luth in the third kit designed by Ed Sheeran |
I'll leave it there for now but next time I'll bring you up to date and tell you about our last trips of the summer in Ramavan and mine and Luther's birthdays. Until then take care.
Lots of love from
Rudie THE Dog xx
