Charlie's Operation

We had a bad scare: Charlie swallowed an open safety pin!


How on earth?


Well don't know if you've heard of bickie pegs, they are teething biscuits (that Eleanor uses). They come with a safety pin at the other end so that Eleanor doesn't loose or swallow it





Nobody told Charlie... when he saw it - biscuit on one end - death on the other!


Still, thank goodness we were there to see it. After two and a half hours of expert surgery from our friends at Castle Veterinary Group, a night on the drip, much TLC and a lot of anxious moments, all is well now.


it's still a bit drafty though!


Let that be a lesson to us - no more 'safety' pins!


Meanwhile: 


snow on the mountains - just like March 2010
