Dogs in the Fells

I'm Maia, the other one is Io (short for Calliope... phew, what a mouthful!). We're Weimaraners. I'm just 10, she's four and hairy. There'll be pictures of us on here somewhere. We live in the fens south of Lincoln and in Cumbria north of Cockermouth. We go up them bumps a lot. It's much better than the flat stuff. We live with Hairyface and the Screature. It's OK.

I'm a fast, fit Weimaraner who always gets mistaken for the younger dog. OK, my spelling can be wobbly, and my syntax aint too great but hey, I'm a dog!

Space Ship Over Gilcrux (Feb 20th 2007)

We went to see the alien craft on the skyline.

It's visible from the Aspatria to Maryport road, silhouetted on the horizon, and it looks like there should be little green men milling about underneath it.

Hairy took us to see it and get us zapped by ray guns.

It wasn't a spaceship at all. It's just a load of boring metal. In a sort of circular shape. On legs.

It's got a bloomin' portacabin under it - which is pretty alien I suppose.

According to this big sign, on the padlocked gate, it's an "Air Traffic Control Beacon".

So now we know.

A space ship would've been much better.

Still the round walk, up through Magic Woods and over Tallentire Hill to see it was good.

Live long and prosper!
