love the image of that last line
\'rudder\' is such an apt wording..
I remember as a child
we had a huge Dane, dense black in colour
so black, it glowed
like a moonless night sky
and every evening, when my father
commuting back home
would turn the car
on to our street, half a mile
from our door
the barking would begin
so energetic, every night
as-if
trying to pull the car along those last few yards, a little quicker..
(if you\'re not some monster of a human
and love dogs
I consider you kin..
I\'m simple minded, like that
unashamedly so!) lol

And as the truck moved off, there would be no more laying around. The joy of a dog in a moving vehicle......

Dogs know how to enjoy themselves, as the thirst for life shows. I just tell mines he\'s chipped, so he can take himself out and get lost and then found. lol

Is it a dog?.... is it a plane?...... is it a bird?...... It\'s Batgirl..... no.... I digress......
Well Neville once again an engmatic challenge... I\'ve read it three times and I can\'t get the image of a golden retriever laid on the back seat out of my mind. Wagging it\'s rudder of a tail.
A dog\'s tail can be the most destructive article known to mankind in the wrong circumstances.

Neville,
By now, you must be home. Ignore ‘those flocking angry gulls..’ rest up and let your special person pamper you.

This is a shock, Nev - obviously more than tonsillitis. Intend to share more?
Forget the gulls for the moment - Nurse Deacon had no need to threaten sedation; There\'s not much sleep in hospital no matter how s/he wanted to frame it.

Best wishes N.
At our local pond it\'s a competition between seagulls (in chillier weather - we\'re not near the coast), ducks, moorhens, coots, and even a goose turned up. A crane did not come very close for food.

Those seagulls! Once we were holding ice cream cones and a seagull swooped and took one away from my hand before I had a taste. Yes I can hear them yelling!
Best wishes.

Who knows what played in her mind
Was it true or just a fantasy of a kind
A thought provoking poetry dear Neville
Some relationships built over frozen sheets of ice
