Willow spends 50 percent of her time, running at Eva and not a nice trot either. Like a train that is about to smash off the rails. I do not know how Eva put’s up with Willow. Poor Eva gave her an inch and now Willow has took a mile. It was after all Eva who taught Willow how to rough play ‘gonna bite your feet off’ ‘gonna bit your face off’ now because Eva rarely plays them ones anymore Willow is playing ‘chicken’ running full pelt at the Akita. I only hope Eva continues to manage to move in time. Because either she or Willow need to veer off suddenly or I’m going to end up with an injured Eva the Akita.

The other 50 percent of Willow's time is took up with rubbing her snout around on the floor like an upturned daffodil, in an attempt to remove the Halti from her nose. She is quite happy wearing it around her ears, thinking it makes her go faster but definitely not keen on the nose. Control the nose, control the direction.

And a further 50 percent hunting for food, because clearly we never ever feed her. Anyone would think that we are the worst owners in the world because our dog, note I didn’t say dogs, only one dog of the two does it. Is clearly starving and must hunt out her own food, no matter how inedible.

So now here we are at 150% and that doesn’t seem to add up or so you’d think but knowing Willow and knowing that everything is done at 150 miles an hour, it kind of all, in the long run, works itself out in in the wash.

Went out for a family fun time today, so inappropriately dressed. I donned a T-shirt, jumper and jacket and boy was I hot. Who knew the sun was doing its shining thing. Loads of people that’s who, all those people walking round in their T-shirts. All those people biking around the place in shorts but no one thought to tell me. Well yes, that would have been odd, someone knocking on the boat and saying “I’ve just come over to let you know what the weather was. Even though you’ve got windows in your boat and a hatch that you can stick your face outside and address the situation yourself. As I was saying before I got distracted on a tangent thought like yourself – no need to wear a jumper on your family fun time because it is flippin hot out here. Okay so now you know I’ll be on my way”.

No one did that, so I was inappropriately dressed in a big woolly jumper, and whilst it was nice being out with Dave and the girls, I was hot, and no matter how much whining I did. I know I admit it, I still whine, especially when I’m trying to get my own way. Like a child without the foot-stomping. Although that is optional depending on my spoilt brat demands. You’re keeping up aren’t you, because this one is zinging around all over the place.

No matter how much whining I did, no one, all looking at Dave now, offered to carry my jacket. You know like when you say to the kids, you can take your scooter, but when you get bored I’m not carrying it, it was just like one of those occasions.

Dave flatly refused, and that person who didn’t come knocking on the boat to tell me the weather, didn’t offer either, what’s a girl to do – I asked Willow who kindly accepted but by the look in her eye, I think I may have tangled her up in my reasonings so like you are now, wondering where this particularly tangle is going to end, she kind of had that vacant – ‘what an earth is going on’ look. Willow has a lovely flat back so you can pretty much balance anything on it, and it was going well, it really was I was free, hot, and stuffy but not carrying my jacket so I consider that a win, thank you very much. I was free right up until the point that Willow starts to do that thing she does – she got all trotty and my poor jacket was on the floor. With little option left, I picked it up and carried it like a grown-up. All adult-like and everything, well it would have been had I not had my bottom lip sticking out.

Day 124 – My walking stats aren’t looking fantastic, the mile marker is catching up with me and I fear I’m slacking in the pack. I’m hoping that the walking gets better when we go out this weekend. Good to know they can’t go backwards so they can only go on and upwards. We've decided to head north. Not so many lock flights, less walking – more river travel, bigger mechanical locks. It’s going to be interesting because I have got extra junk in my trunk this year.

Thus far I have walked 378 miles this year, as well as three days of last year. I know others are doing so well and I am very proud of them. They walked it and earnt every single mile. My race my pace. I do so want my medal and Willow defiantly deserves hers. I do at times feel so sorry for her, making her do it with me. The looks I get when she realises, we off on another longer trot. I think the backpack is a tell-tell sign that’s it’s going to be one of ‘those’ walks. She is getting older but don’t tell her I told you.

Each week I write down the Walking Bingo challenges - again just making up the numbers here people. And each week something happens on our walks and I think – bugger why didn’t I put down, in the case of last week – chicken feet. And this week it happens to be the turn of the ‘egg’. My short slightness will become legendary as I fail each week to have a lack of foresight and never ever manage a full house. You better watch this space when I do.

Have you ever seen ducks doing it? It’s not the romantic liaise of a bit of cuddling and kissing behind the bush. He damn near drowns her, and men wonder why ladies are so uptight.

Eva was snuffling her way down the locks found it, at her favourite drinking pound – The egg. I can only assume the mother was young and the father probably buggered off to harass another unsuspecting maiden. I mention maiden, because the egg was just on the edge of the towpath, just there. Now I don’t know about you, but I’ve never seen a freshly laid egg, so I know not of what I speak, but it did look fresh, when I poked it gently, the egg was still soft. Initially, I thought someone had dropped their hard-boiled egg but that has never happened on a walk before - mind you neither has something like this.

The fisherpeople were out in force today, one in each pound as we went down the locks.

When we have been out narrowboating we see all manner of boats and every year there is always a speed boat. Doing what speed boat’s do, speeding. Personally, I think I would get sea sick all that bobbing but it does look like a lot of fun. What I didn’t think I would see so early in the season is a speedboat in one of the pounds. It was hitting a super plodding speed but I suspect for its size that could be considered fast. The owner was having fun as did we watching it for a time. Eva was completely intrigued and I suspect Willow would have ignored it. Thinking it was completely below her, after all, how could something or someone take the limelight of Willow – truly an impossible task.

Eva carried on her saunter sniffing every blade of grass as we proceed home.

No exciting Dallas Dramas, no further walking tale to tell. I think we will be heading out for the boating season come next weekend so hopefully it will involve more walking mainly for Willow and I, but not for Eva. I’m sad to report that my regal lady is getting old, each day a little less. Eva doesn’t play with Willow as Willow would like, and the skipping only really starts when she’s chasing something.

My website is dying again, yes I know it’s happened before – build a website they said, it’ll be easy they said. I’ve run out of memory and now have to delete and re-upload compressed files. Talk about do over – what a choreache.

Fed up with doing that, I take the dogs out, for a breath of fresh air and sometimes to clear my head. I always take the girls out separately it’s just easier when negotiating eventualities. Together they just like children wind each other up and seem to always suffer a case of the ‘select hearing’. Also, if they run two separate ways, I have no control other than verbal. I could take them out on the lead together, that does seem obvious but I have this belief that dogs tend to get more exercise and stimulation when off lead. Clearly, if I’m doing my bimble Willow wants to run jump, and play at a greater speed than I’m going. Eva wants to go at half the speed and distance and sniff every blade of grass, so neither one of those options works for me, so I take them out individually and cater the walking style to whichever of my furbabies I’m walking with. I also believe that they benefit from Mummy and me time – firming up the bound, ongoing training if their ears are open. The only oil in the ointment is Willow’s inability to self entertain. If I was there, she’d be sleeping but if I’m not she’s anxious. Not sure why she can’t sleep especially as it’s her most favourite thing to do.

I do feel sorry for and do apologise to the neighbors, one refers to Willow being on her own as singing. I have to say it’s a good job I don’t leave her to often, she’s my shadow.

I found a penny today, Willow didn’t seem overly impressed but I was well chuffed and it did bring me luck, nothing bad happened today, and figured out a way to bring the website back from the dead.

Day 121 - As Willow and I strode out the gate, it looked like a car park. Surely not, well yes it was. It is a pedestrian path, you know the path that used to flood each time it rained. Until the Canal and River Trust (CRT) ruined my fun and paid some party poopers to raise it. Now when it rains we can’t use the gate because the flood is now redirected in front of it.

Back to the Carpark which was formerly known as the pedestrian area. Council car after council truck after council lifty arm thingy vehicle. Yep, all manners of vehicles parked out here today. What for? They are timbering, is that the correct term. Ah, who cares – what is correct terms between friends. Of course, Willow was far too distracted being noisey to do anything anywhere in the facility of so many fascinating vehicles and people looking up to the sky.

I didn’t see superman, but I did see Lumber Jacks and a Jackie in the trees, no didn’t see any Tarzans. It looks like the council has come in, to cut the height of the trees so they don’t interfere with the powerlines.

It puts me in mind of a lost loved one, who being of the older generation and having lived way before the national grid came into being in the 1960s, just said off the cuff one day that the power cables should have been put underground. Thinking about it logically and logistically a total nightmare, but I think the point she was making is that they are so ugly, they do impact the landscape. I’ll go further as to say, isn’t that what the majority of us is aiming for, to have a lesser footprint. To go back to times gone by and be self-sufficient. At the times we just giggled when she said it. But hindsight is a wonderful thing and looking back upon that moment in time I sit here now thinking, maybe she had a point, from a bygone era but unbeknown a forward thinker nonetheless. Sorry if potentially this was a little bit deep. Makes you think though.

Day 120 – It really is something when you put entertainment in front of your own dignity. What I mean by that is knowing that 1000 of viewers will be watching Willow Cam on her youtube channel. Knowing that Willow tends to walk behind me. So by process of elimination, my dear Watson, you know that my hiney is going to be bottom bobbing on show. When I say thousand of views I actually mean all of Willow’s 45 subscribers. Willow's point of view from today is up as I said on Youtube. It’s about an hour and a half long. Yes I know that’s long but we are slow walkers. If you watch it you will see our route, you will see the block but mostly your be watching my bottom bobbing. Start a blog they said, it will be fun the said.

It was cool enough to walk the block again, I managed to get out early and before Mr Sunshine had got his Rayon. Well, when I say early, it wasn’t early to some. Let’s put it this way – would I rather Dave would have got up, at the time yes, but upon reflection having achieved the 4 miles of the block I’m glad I did it. So how early is early? 9 am, I know, only the really keen get up at this time on a Sunday morning, Willow and I.

Kept my eyes on Willow, even the eyes in the back of my head. I don’t know why we have to go through the battle, not only daily, but every single walk. It’s draining. Stop eating stuff that people leave behind, or when people are being inconsiderate of others, or when people are feeding the ducks, it’s for the ducks, you are not a duck. You’re to big to be a duck and you’re the wrong colour to be a duck. To be honest I think the only words Willow understood are ‘No’ ‘Stop’ and the growling which is my go-to in incidents such as this.

Day 119 – It was cool enough to walk the block again, I managed to get out early and before Mr Sunshine had got his Ray on. Well, when I say early, it wasn’t early to some. Let’s put it this way – would I rather Dave would have got up, at the time yes, but upon reflection having achieved the 4 miles of the block I’m glad I did it. So how early is early? 9 am, I know, only the really keen get up at this time on a Sunday morning, Willow and I.

You’re to big to be a duck and you’re the wrong colour to be a duck. To be honest I think the only words Willow understood are ‘No’ ‘Stop’ and the growling which is my go-to in incidents such as this.

We start off with a nice walk, and I know something is amuck because Mrs hound dog has her nose squished firmly to the ground, almost in a zig-zag hunting fashion that I liken to a hoover. Even a blind man could see where this is heading. Its starts with a quick movement that you catch out of the corner of your eye. Then a vibration down the lead, you know how snakes swallow it whole – it’s a bit like that. This is quickly and firmly followed by yelling and running to. I never lift her head up, what I do is open her mouth and retrieve whatever it is from the back of her throat. No, it’s not pleasant for either of us. I don’t look at the quickly acquired, second if not third-hand foodish thing. Oh no, I dread to think what it is that has been in her mouth, and worst than that, I have got to have regurgitated. I know living the high life. Get a Dane they said. They didn’t actually, but that’s a different tale.

No sooner have I liberated such disgusting’s by lobbing them in the canal, we are on ‘rinse repeat’ cycle. And this is how the walk continues.

More block drama the canal made the new again - https://www.examinerlive.co.uk/news/local-news/live-police-forensic-team-investigating-20459129 I would have rather it hadn’t or didn’t. It’s our local area so especially frightening to learn someone got stabbed and died. That’s what the police helicopters were doing the other night.

Day 118 - It’s turning into the Marie Celeste in the Marina, Hoards, and hoards of boats went out today, Okay, three to be honest with you but it felt like more, maybe because they were all wide beams. As I took each of the girls out, in turn, I tangled in the chatting and locking. I never ever do the locks on the Sheffield and Tinsley Canal. In my opinion, they are not nice locks, they are heavy and stubborn, so I give that pleasure to Dave. But not today, here I am wheezing and puffing opening up the gates. Everyone is in good spirits, well they would be wouldn’t they, they are going out for the season. Unlike us, why aren’t we going out yet? Erm, 1 - Got some boat jobs on the go. 2 – We want to go North, and the system currently has two issues, one a breach and the other a lock. 3 – Diary plans in the area.

I almost sob as they head out, have a chat with some friends who went on the day before, and end up mimi mocking them. It slipped out before I could hold my jealously in check, yes I know it’s not a pleasant trait.

Interestingly, or maybe it’s not, but you won’t know if it is or isn’t until you get to the end of the paragraph by which time if you don’t think it is interesting, you’ll have wasted your time. Just saying. No refunds for that time you’re never going to get back, or the fact that I’m still driveling on about absolutely nothings – As I was saying, interestingly or maybe not – you can see how this could keep going round in a circle…

As I walked the girls individually, their behaviour and reaction to so many people milling around the locks was t totally different ends of the spectrum. Willow wanted to run at people and then bark but would end up running back to me if they fronted her up. And Eva wanted just to rub herself all over them like a hot hairy rash. It’s at this point I say, you’ve got to choose your audience because for either one of those spectrums it doesn’t always go down well.

Was it interesting? – no – well I did warn you. I thought it was hence why I shared.

Willow met the Chicken Foot Gang today, ran over to them like their reputation had preceded itself. Luckily for me, they were empty-handed and I didn’t have to play bad cop again. Willow certainly made an impression, not being so in your face rubbing as Eva, it was said that she was dare I say it, the favourite. Let’s keep that between ourselves.

The pounds are getting low, generally, the dogs just lean over and drink the cocktail canal water. I know it’s dirty, but given the choice, the girls would rather drink out of the dirty canal with whatever it has in it, than if I took a bowl along and filled it up with fresh water.  Fickled Females!! Water was a bit sparse today, whilst walking Eva, took her over the locks to where the ledge is not so high, or so I thought. There is no ledge it’s just a quagmire of mud. Nothing is pretty much going to deter Eva from getting a drink and in she went doing her quicksand impression with the occasional glunck and suck of the mud and she shifted in the dirty mud. As she shifted, the smells wafted out, clearly, Eva was dislodging years of rot and debris. After getting her drink she sauntered out like it was just a normal day at the office. But firstly, she looked awful, and secondly, she smelt. When I got her home, I hosed her down, she wasn’t impressed, but to be fair neither was I. Action and reaction
