He'll be gone after November

If that was Wednesday,this must be Thursday.

Diesel practiced his pointing on the squirrels.

Is it front or back for fur?

Diesel would like a bit of fur on the side.

"Is the camera still rolling?"

This is not Dylan.

In fact Anthony is not quite sure who this is.

Not because he doesn't know.

It has just been a long time since this picture was taken....erm,on Thursday.

Possibly.

Anyway,he thinks this is Storm or Sky or Shadow or possibly Breeze.

Which is quite embarrassing because they used to walk with this particular pack quite a lot.

But that was a long time ago,possibly.

That makes Anthony think this is Dusty,who was usually part of the same pack.

If this is who Anthony thinks this is then this is a sad picture.

Dusty started to have epileptic fits.

Anthony thinks Dusty started the long sleep at the start of November.

Diesel and Anthony will miss Dusty and so will many others.

Wake me up when September ends

Wednesday comes after Tuesday.

Usually anyway.

Which means these pictures must have been taken on Wednesday.

Not this Wednesday,nor last Wednesday.

These pictures were taken on another Wednesday entirely.

At least we think they were.

They don't have cars like this in the park on Tuesdays.

We have never seen a car like this in the park on a Thursday either.

We have never seen the Lake Ness Monster on a Friday.

Taffy has never been known to swim on a Saturday.

Come to think of it,Taffy has never been known to swim.

Diesel and Jake never play rugby on The Lord's day.

It is entirely unheard of for Diesel to take a penalty kick on a Sunday.

He obviously missed that one.

He always misses on Wednesdays.

A naked welsh streaker interrupted play.

That rules out Monday.

A Pomeranian girl stripped off in the stands.

It must be Wednesday.

A couple of girls joined the boys in the bath after the game.

But they were both dogs.

Taffy demonstrated the art of not swimming.

He still got wet though.

The boys had a few drinks in a rock club after the game.

Diesel and Jake were headbanging to AC:DC.

Then the moshing started.

The boys jumped around to House of Pain.

Before long Jake was legless.

He needed somebody to lean on.

The youngsters can't hold their ale like Dylan.

They've not got his balls.

Diesel looked the worse for wear.

Dylan was still trying his best to impress the ladies.

The doormen soon told them to go home.

Diesel couldn't remember where home was.

He spent ages waiting for a taxi.

Then decided to walk.

Diesel tried to chat up some pussy he met in the street.

But the cat got his tongue.

Don't fear the reaper

"Love of two is one,

Here but now they're gone,

Came the last night of sadness,

And it was clear he couldn't go on,

Then the door was open and the wind appeared,

The candles blew and then disappeared,

The curtains flew and then he appeared,

Saying don't be afraid.

Come on Ollie... And he had no fear,

And he ran to him... Then they started to fly,

They looked backward and said goodbye,

He had become like they are,

He had taken his hand,

He had become like they are.

Come on Ollie...don't fear the reaper."

Diesel and Oliver have been best friends since the moment they met.

They have both had issues with other dogs but never with eachother.

All they ever did together was run and play.

Diesel has a lot of friends but Ollie was his best friend.

They both lived next to the park and would have been best friends for the rest of their lives.

Yesterday they played in the park for the last time.

Oliver died last night.

He had a heart attack.

He was two years old.

These are the unedited pictures from their last walk.

On a cold Friday Diesel met Sally in the park.

Sally was with Lilly as usual.

Then they were joined by Diesel's best friend Oliver.

Diesel and Oliver played like they always had.

Oliver was much easier to see in the dark than Diesel.

Mysterious lights appeared in the park.

It was Fudge with his illuminated collar.

The boys got down to business.

Sally joined in too.

When the boys play,Sally likes to referee.

Lilly disappeared for a while.

Fudge doesn't often stand still.

He is like a grey torpedo coming out of the darkness.

Except when Anthony takes a picture of course.

Oliver doesn't look too good in this picture.

Ollie went back to doing what he and Diesel liked best.

They might not look very energetic but it was only possible to take pictures of the boys when they stopped for a few seconds.

Diesel and Oliver have a break for treats.

Fudge,stands still again,briefly.

Oliver always looked like a very fit and healthy boy.

He always gave Diesel a run for his money.

Oliver didn't like other dogs when he was on the lead.

But he was very good with Diesel.

This is the last we will ever see of Ollie.

Diesel and Anthony will miss him a lot.
