A busy week doesn’t come anywhere near describing it! It went something like this –
Sunday – Fund raising for my mountain rescue team, NEWSAR (North East Wales Search And Rescue)
Monday – Awareness day and fund raising for NEWSAR.
Tuesday – Search dog training with SARDA Wales (Search And Rescue Dogs Association).
Wednesday – Search training with NEWSAR.
Friday – SARDA Wales (northeast dogs) search dog training.
Saturday and Sunday – Search dog training weekend with SARDA Wales.
And as I write this on Sunday night I’m looking at another week like this –
Tuesday – Search dog training with SARDA
Wednesday – Search training with NEWSAR (optional for us newbies, so I might take a night off)
Thursday – SARDA Wales (northeast dogs) training.
Friday to Sunday – Search training weekend with NEWSAR.
To the above events you can add the search dog training during the week that Chris and I do together, plus the domestic round of doing the shopping and other household chores. The upshot is that I have decided that for the immediate future I will be posting this blog every two weeks instead of weekly.
When I started the blog, it was intended go be a weekly record of what I had been doing in the hills, but with stuff piling up something has to give. I’m reluctant to make the change, but I’ve got a lot on with training a search dog, joining a new rescue team and completing a walking guide to Snowdonia.
So, please come back next week for what should have been this week’s post. If you don’t want to miss one of these priceless gems, you can sign up for an email notification by clicking the “Sign me up” button on the blog page.
Right, I’m off for a lie down in a darkened room ……!
