We gotta get outa this place.......

At the back door of the school, loading car as usual, in the dark for the first time.

Dimairt more than anxious to get going.

He - damn and blast him - was fine today, after the long trek of yesterday. No sign of a limp, and bounding about again.

I was groaning for Scotland today.

I have GOT to get a supply of those dog pills from the vet, and use them on myself.
