Thank you to everyone for their kind words about both the article in the Newcastle Evening Chronicle, and the interview on Talk Sport (National Radio) last night.
It was back down to earth with a bang today though, as I noticed that one of Smokey's testicles was very swollen. Thank you to Moorview Vets for superb service once again and for allowing me to rush him straight in. First impressions are it is a tumour, we just have to pray it hasn't spread. Please spare a thought for him tonight.
