Dear diary. 11/2/10 Learned Lady some box manners this morning chasing bulls in the ring.
Lady needs to hang on to the bull a lot longer.
Lady needs to learn not to sit down in the boxes.
Will learn Lady again a lot more other times.

Coops I have been away and about to go away again but I have certainly been wondering what has been progressing with the 2 bitches, not too much it seems but it can be a slow process. With regard to the rodent matter, I completely deny any involvement in illegal activity although I did sneak (yes that means steal) one apricot from the West Como fruit shop in about 1959. Hopefully, the relevant statutory period has elapsed, leaving me in the clear in terms of punishment. I still feel ashamed because Mr Lummis, the owner of the fruit shop, was in later years generous in allowing me to weigh my fawn Greenane Toast bitch on his fruit shop scales. Her racing weight varied between "half a bag of spuds plus two oranges" and "half a bag of spuds, 2 x oranges and a whole cabbage".
