Walkies! That’s a word likely to get many dogs running around in circles excited at the prospect of a walk. My dog Spring is the same.
Last week we took Spring to the vet because she hasn’t been eating well. After a blood test was taken it turns out she has some kidney damage and well, she’s growing old. She’s a 13 1/2 year old Springer Spaniel.
The vet gave her several injections and she’s feelng much better now, and she’s on a special diet low in protein, and high in phosphorous (I think). It all helps, but time is ticking away and we’ll have to make a hard decision in a few months time.
This afternoon I took her out for a walk down to the Atlantic Pond here in Blackrock. She had a great time! I snapped plenty of photos, and even used the movie function of my camera to capture a few moments of her showing a stick who’s the boss. Up until today I never used the movie function much, but I’m glad it’s there now!
Anyway, that was a completely non-techie and non-current-affairs update from me this time. I’ll likely post some photographs in a few days.. I snapped a few nice ones.

Nokia – Nokia 7650 Phone Support More Software – the Triple Pop and Bounce games here are worth downloading. Despite what the page says, if you don’t have access to IRDA or Bluetooth you can always email yourself (to the phone) the .sis files for installing. Thankfully, unlike with Java applets, once .sis applications are installed they can be moved into different folders. This contrasts with java midlets which have to remain in the application manager. (AFAIK)

Great, I tried to download email to my 7650 this morning, followed all the directions online and in the supplied manual and it didn’t work. A 10 minute call to Vodafone (via a freephone number) resulted in them “escalating my problem” and someone will be in touch in a day or two.
