'Look deeply into the eyes of a dog and you will see the love and adoration that lies within its soul, the dog should be able to see the same'.

@SueCooperBridge She never left my side after the accident, she felt safe near me, but always stayed close rather than running off with the other dogs.

The 'blur' that was my Lurcher 'Misty', clearing a hurdle at high speed some years ago. The little face, peeping through the rails. was 'Skye' the terrier.🥰

@SueCooperBridge God she could jump anything, including high hedges, it was her downfall in the end, she badly broke a front leg jumping a huge ditch in the snow. She had a metal plate put in and recovered well, but she was never the same dog afterwards.

[Steve Caple @SteveCaple4]

@DeeAitch71 Yes, it does, perfectly, Misty was a devil for jumping anything for the fun of it.😍

@ljm20141 They were comical, one waiting to be lifted over, the other, three fields away.😂

[Steve Caple @SteveCaple4]

@dexterdalley I think they were looked after at St Andrews, but not certain of that.🤔

Duston War Hospital, WW1 period. It was a psychiatric hospital before and after this time. I did my nurse training there in the early 1970's. Then called St Crispin Hospital.

Northampton Market Square, when it was a bustling hive of trading activities. The Peacock Hotel is still standing and was an original coaching Inn.

@StacieP62036695 He was, but they all were ❤️

[Steve Caple @SteveCaple4]

@JohnPretty2o2o Great story John, glad he survived,🥰

[Steve Caple @SteveCaple4]

@SueCooperBridge Yes, the numbers were so vast that very many families were affected by the conflict and war.😞

[Steve Caple @SteveCaple4]

@TerryWhenham That would be wonderful then, thank you. If you DM me at some point I can show you what I know so far.

[Steve Caple @SteveCaple4]

@TerryWhenham I couldn't afford to pay anyone to do that, but thank you for the offer anyway, much appreciated.🥰

[Steve Caple @SteveCaple4]

@CountryEchoUK I hope to visit some day, let me know if you are ever going to that area, we may be able to arrange something.🥰
