On hiatus

... due to the hectic nature of packing and preparing to shift my life overseas, and also other things that keep coming up, such as this little girl.

Good luck with all the packing etc!

Bella is gorgeous. I hope she finds a good home soon.

Oh, thank you. I'm sure she will, but the shelter will be very particular about who takes her - as they ought to be for any beagle, but particularly for her. At least I'll be able to tell them exactly what she needs in a home!

I love your blog so much! You make me miss my long-gone days of studying medieval literature. And your fabulous beagle stories make me miss our beloved beagle, Toby, of happy memory.

Thanks for a great read!
