20110322 - One Sam and His Dog

Went over t'hills to the dentist today to have my disintegrated tooth re-constituted. Mrs. Dentist said "Open up, let's see which it... oh dear!" then had a bit of a giggle :o/ Still, she stuck it all back together with white goo in about five minutes - very impressive :o))

It also happened to be Sam's grandma Jacky's birthday, so everyone went around there for a party. Here's Sam 'helping' by keeping Jed (Sam's Aunty Diane's aging pooch) still - all whilst Sam's grandad held the reflector for us 'cos the sun had just dipped behind the garden fence.

What do you think of the show so far Jed?

What a persuasive portrait photographer you are! You had all those people (and Jed too!) co-operating with you in composing this lovely portrait. One for the memory gallery.

these two must have heard the tale of your dental visit too...they seem very impressed...although Jed also seems a bit disbelieving...no shortage of vitality here...V
