Another frosty morning, then just after breakfast I had a message from my sister which meant a dash into Chester, to my dad’s. He was fine, just needed checking on. At 12, we all piled into the car to take Macc to the groomer. We got right along to Beeston only to find the road closed because of an unsafe building (which looked as if it was perfectly safe, as it had already fallen down) so we had to retrace our route and go a different way. We dropped Macc off with Steph at Cheshire Pampered Paws, and then as we had two hours to kill went a couple of miles further on to Church Minshull for lunch at The Badger.
We had very nice sandwiches and beer, and then a pot of tea. But you can only make lunch last so long, so we also went for a wander round the village. When we got back to Steph’s, Macc was just being finished up. He looks completely different again!
Steph said he’d been a very good boy the whole time, and she was quite reluctant to give him back! The amount of fur that had come out of him was amazing. It’s like a whole other dog.
At least on the way back we knew about the road closure so could avoid it. I took Macc for a run about in the field and he’s now crashed out after his busy afternoon.
