Barleycorn the wonder dog has just qualified as a registered therapy dog. He’ll take over from his co-dog, Siena, who—if there is such a place as dog heaven—has surely gone there. I’m glad my brother keeps me up to date on doings because all that is happening here is work, work, work—and an occasional episode of Inspector Morse or Foyle’s War. The autumn will be easier. I am already looking forward to a fire, cups of hot milky tea, and lots of rain. Ahhh….
