As some of you might have seen Gus went to the vets today to be neutered 😬 Poor lad was utterly traumatised at being left and I’ve never felt so guilty, I had to be taken into the back to pick him up too as he was to scared to come out of the cage and he’s just finally dropped off to sleep after trembling in his bed. Hoping so much that it’ll help him to chill out a bit among other things otherwise we’re feeling a bit like we might never forgive ourselves (slightly over dramatic perhaps! 😂) Sure he’ll be back to himself in no time but for now he’s wrapped in a blanket with a hot water bottle feeling very sorry for himself. I’m pretty sure Syl doesn’t understand what all the fuss is about as she was unbelievably chilled about her whole spay process and still likes to drag me into the vets she loves it there so much 😂 For now here’s a slightly more cheerful photo of tiny Gus racing round his first beach, Syl keeping a close eye on shenanigans as per! ♥️

Getting very excited to be heading back to the Alps next month, but first it feels like there’s a mountain of jobs to do first! The van needs new curtains, cupboards sanding and repainting, the newly extended bench seat needs new cushions, our sliding door needs to be taken off and sorted, we have to install our new water heater and put in new internal water tanks plus lots of other bits and bobs. Here’s hoping it all gets done in time! 😅 In other news Gus is booked in to get his bits off tomorrow, feeling all those nerves we had with Syl all over again! The injection he had the other month (to mimic the effects) did seem to calm him down a little bit so here’s hoping it wasn’t a fluke - and it doesn’t make his behaviour with certain male dogs any worse. It’s so hard to know what’s best for our furry little mates sometimes isn’t it!?

More Montenegrin magic ✨ Can you tell this was one of my favourite parts of our trip!? The scenery was amazing, the weather perfect and I feel like we’d properly got into the flow of things. Would love to head back to Montenegro one day and explore properly as we were restricted by our insurance and as per we hadn’t really researched/planned ahead much! 😂

Spot the van hiding amongst some autumn colours in Montenegro 🇲🇪 this was such a cool spot - no one around for miles and some fun climbing to be done with amazing views over the surrounding area. We don’t really do much at all so it was nice to do something different (and make use of all the gear we’d been lugging around for months!) 🧗🏻‍♀️

It’s SO cold today (first frost and first snow on the hills here in Wales) and it’s getting us super excited to have views like this again ❄️🏔 Nothing quite like having a cup of tea while surrounded by snowy mountains in the morning!

Some amazing autumn colours shrouded in some very chilly mist as seen from bed a few days ago 🍂 It really has gone cold this week, and apparently snow might be happening on the hills this weekend!? Not sure if this is true as I haven’t actually checked but feeling excited at the appearance of some proper cold weather nonetheless! ❄️
