I think that the biggest challenge we face with Queenie is training ourselves. It is so easy to forget that she can’t hear us and shouting ‘no’ doesn’t do any good at all. Hand signals are also of limited use…

Ian, in a rather self satisfied way, pointed out that he had written the past two blog posts. To which I pointed out that out of the 1200 blog posts written, I have written over 1160. To which Ian muttered…
