Thurs 10 Aug 13° Dulwich House Sit

After a very wet night the sun is shining this morning.

We walk round to our house sit to meet them. Heidi, son George, daughters Willow and Daisy with of course our charges Pickle and Badger, very well behaved, we'll trained staffie  cross dogs.

Our long walk across the park began right at the back fence that has a gate which opens into the sports ground. Around the edges and another gate which is kept locked but Heidi has negotiated a key so we go right into Belair Park. off the lead for a good run, but they never went far afield. Just across the road and you are in Dulwich Park so a very green area with woods a bit further on.

Back to the house, we left the family  to get packed and ready for their big sailing trip to Turkey.

We walked to Dulwich Village had lunch to a little Italian deli cafe, came out and asked directions from a lady who happened to be a real estate agent, who very kindly took us into her office gave us  a map and highlighted local supermarkets and marks and Spencer's.

Continued our walk to Herne Hill and sainsburys to get provisions for dinner as Jenna and Alex coming tomorrow after work, then back to Bessie, I got packed while Tony walked to Tulse Hill to the betting shop for a £ on the golf, when he arrived back he couldn't contain himself, he had found a £10 note lying on the pavement then a £5 in the gutter....no one around....so thank you very much.

Back to the house for dinner, met Piers just in from work,  had a house tour, a 4 storey EdwardIan house , we were in the top loft bedroom with its own bathroom which was George's room, good exercise up and down the  stairs

Very social family meal of spaghetti bolenaise, then early night for the family as they had to be up at 3am for early flight to Turkey.
