Fighting Fit

This weekend the tides were just right for a trip to Hull.  We had a nice calm run each way, however on Sunday the river was especially smooth due to the forecast light airs.
The new flood defence scheme has started on Victoria Dock Village, and the western section of the river promenade has been closed off, resulting in a detour around the residential village to get to the eastern end for our afternoon dog walk.

Thankfully the dogs are all back to full health after our last holiday to Newark and Nottingham.
They all had contracted a nasty gastro bug which took a full 7 days each to recover from, resulting in a two night vet hospital stay for Lottie as her back end had gone due to dehydration. We have since learnt that Sconce and Devon Park in Newark where we had enjoyed several dog walks now has notices up advising dog owners/walkers of an outbreak of Parvovirus. We suspect they had picked the bug up from here, but we will never know. The vet even checked Lottie for Alabama Rot due to us having been to Nottinghamshire, but we were advised this takes a hold very quickly (which we knew) and that it is often fatal.
Thankfully they are all back to their usual noisy selves and fighting fit once again. Hopefully our main summer holiday aboard Moonshine in a few weeks will be a lot more enjoyable experience.
