8th December 2018 November – long and miserable…!?? The clocks have gone back... ...the days are shorter,... ...cold and damp. YES - our mood is affected: NOVEMBER BLUES! The November blues is about lack of daylight... ...and there is no other way than to get outside. Sitting in a train and enjoy the countryside can help... ...sitting outside is even better! When November hits, everything starts looking magical. Leaves and trees change colours to yellow, orange or red. Strolling around you realise that you are not alone-... ...you meet others that enjoy the sunshine... ...or don't care about the weather! Magical November: HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Lockthorn TEMBA... ...and Lockthorn TOPPER. Born on the 26th of November 2005 they are 13 years old. They deserve a real (birthday) blues! Latest news: Not a blues but a "congratulation song" for Ziva & Daniel: They won the 14 Dog Novice stake of the Yorkshire Retriever Field Trial Society at Nawton Towers: Winner (1st) - Daniel Marx with Lockthorn Ziva 2nd - Paul Stogden with Routengill Apollo.
