We Are Off!


Yesterday a big van arrived at our house and men took away all our stuff. My people assured me that that was ok ... I thought I better keep an eye on them from the window anyway!

Boxes


My people seem to be serious about moving to the Netherlands. There are boxes everywhere. Fortunately, I didn't have anything to do with the packing, but I will definitely help unpacking in Beek Ubbergen. That'll be fun!

West Ham United


Yesterday Gunnar went to a West Ham United game for the last time (for now). Despite the result (Hammers-Spurs 1:2) Katie, Paul and Gunnar enjoyed their trip to London. Thank you very much for sorting out the tickets and for the shirt :-) , Katie and Paul !!! Looking forward to the next game. We'll keep in touch.

Summer Event


Two days ago we went for a fantastic walk with our friends from the Banbury & District Dog Training Society. About 20 dogs and their owners enjoyed the sun and spectacular landscape. It was the last time we spent some time together though (before our move to the Netherlands) so we were a little bit sad too. Take care everybody and thank you for teaching us, Carla and John :-) !!!

U2


Margriet and Gunnar already went to the U2 concert in Amsterdam a month ago and Gunnar couldn't resist going for a second time at Wembley Stadium yesterday. What a band, what a show!

Storm


I'm very sorry, folks. I forgot to mention last time that we got to know Margriet's nephew Storm during our stay in the Netherlands. In the picture Margriet and her sister Judith are beaming with joy thanks to the new family member.

Dwingeloo


We were on holiday in the Netherlands! Dwingeloo is a great place. Margriet's parents live there together with four horses, two donkeys, five chickens, one cat, five fishes, reams of insects and birds and ... two dogs: Varro, a German Shepherd, and Coco, a Hollandse Smoushond. Since my people were very busy organising our move to Nijmegen in September my friends and I had lots of time to explore the farm and fool around. Brilliant! We're back in Oxford now and I miss all of them. Luckily, it won't be long before we see each other again :-) !!!
