Hi pals,
This month I did a first, I went to a music concert! Yep, not a band in a pub which I've seen lots of, but a proper seated concert with a couple of hundred people and a mini orchestra. It was super cultural my friends and there was even another dog, a poodle, to compare audio notes with bol.

Elaine's friends are in a Big Band hence my orchestral debut but I think I'll be asking to go to more now. It's funny how some of us are fine with noise and others not. The little poodle sat on her owner's knee happily clapping and singing along, she was called Fluffy and she was loving it. To be honest I slept through most of it, even the drumming and loud trumpets, everyone was laughing.

Otherwise I've had a pretty calm month, the weather has been pretty nice down in Brighton so we've been to the doggy beach and park a lot. I'm still having Librela injections for my arthritis and they seem to be working. I think I've had around 6 injections now and I've lost a bit of weight which helps... yes that's a point I've been on a diet and I am NOT HAPPY about it! Meals have shrunk and titbits held back, I'm nearly 14 and consider this most unsatisfactory. Elaine, however, seems to think it's a good thing as apparently I still 'charge up and down the stairs to quickly' Rude! I'm a culture seeing athlete I'll have you know! 

Right I'm off to listen to Classic FM whilst nibbling on a gravy bone...
