Next day we celebrated at home

October 12th
Gabby had a freak accident in the garden on Sunday and we still can not see what she did.
Any way her toe was so badly broken she had to have it amputated.
Uncle Neil Palmer the vet who does orthopaedics at SVCC is wonderful as he has saved the pad.
She has a pretty red bandage and is sleeping with ‘Mum’.

Jan 28th 2005 Sad news today from Janet Thomas who
has let me know that Jamie (Trufee Iollus) died yesterday.
He had sudden critical exacerbation of congestive heart
disease and yesterday morning he was put to sleep and died
very peacefully Janet says he was the best of little dogs,
loving and well-mannered. Jamie was Persee’s litter
brother, a black & tan and would have been 10 in
April. Thank you Janet for giving him such a
happy life, both at home and at the Harrogate boarding
school where he was a popular friend to many.
Some days after Sunday 23. 01 2005 'Just look what that clumsy
Mum did to me --- broken toes, but on the mend!'
