Phew, what a weekend - two such different days!
Saturday started as a reasonable day here at home, but by the time we got to Rhyd Ddu, through floods and mist, we were a bit reluctant to go and get even wetter! After Sian had breakfast in the school, we got organised to go training. Jenny was coming along to help Sian, and we drove up first to have a look at Harvey's lake - the cloud was very low, you could hardly see anything, and I wasn't keen - especially when the lake kept coming and going!
Anyway, we went on up Pen y Pass and over to Llanberis, and to Llyn Padarn - and believe it or not - it was lovely weather - Sian was in her t-shirt, and it wasn't raining!
We started off with some searches in the main lake, and i got a bit confused - I lost track of what I was meant to be telling Sian about - the line she uses to tie on to the pig in a tube tends to float on the water, and it's a bit of a BIG CLUE about where the pig's going to be, and I started getting lazy, and telling her when I found the line, rather than when I found the pig. I always did find the pig, but now that the pig is deeper and I can't get to it, I have great fun scrabbling about at the line - it's worked a few times before, but she sussed me out! Oops! I heard them talking about getting a lead line, but I think the final straw was when I swam into the line, got stuck on it, and ended up pulling the pig and tube out behind me - and believe me - it was very heavy and took some pulling!!
I then got dried off, and had my fleece on, and had a bit of a sleep while they drove down to buy some sinking line! Thankyou to Dickie's boatyard for coming to the rescue! www.dickies.co.uk They're going to find out how much an electric engine costs for us - yay, can't wait!
After this, we had another go, and I worked really hard. I don't know why, but Sian kept taking me all over the place, sending me out into bits of water that I could smell straight away there was no pig. In the end I found it easily enough, I was running along a path and it was a case of whoosh I'll go this way - hey there it is - Sian was impressed by my 90degree turn!!! I pottered around for a bit and Sian had to remind me that I was supposed to tell her! She was pleased because Jenny had been timing the time it took, and it took 4 minutes and 25 seconds! ![]()
After the next search, she was even more pleased, because I kept on searching for 8 whole minutes
That was utterly exhausting, and I'd had enough. She was a bit frustrated with me I think, cos I just want to play with the line - even though she's now got the sinky one. Anyway, after this I'd had enough, but Sian didn't realise, and she had another go with a pig in deeper water. By now I just didn't want to go in the water - cold and tired
We finished off with 3 easy ones, which cheered me up, and I got back in the car to warm up while they went for tea and cake!
We went back to Rhyd Ddu, and I slept until the Flashman came back from his training, and after tea, we snuggled up together for a nap.
Had a quick dash to Nant Peris for a mountain rescue job before heading home.
I'm not sure if Ellie was pleased to see me when we got in, because she started fighting with me, biting me, but with a waggly tail - wierd dog! Beat me up again later just because Crispy Chicken was cuddling me - Get well soon Sharon
Sunday morning was stunningly fantastic - out of the house around 0730, we went in the one car, too late for breakfast at the school, and we went back to Padarn Lake for more fun! We took lots of photos of the sunshine and clouds on the way there, and I'll try and put them on here if my paws permit!
Sian had obviously been thinking about me playing with the line - and she spent some time getting me to sort out in my head what I'm meant to be doing - I get the ball when I tell her about the pig - I don't have to get to the pig itself, but even if I tell her that I can smell the pig, I still get the ball. I think that's sorted now, cos I thought I had to get the pig itself - when I started training, I could always reach it, but now it's in deeper water, I can't, and that's why I try to pull it in with the line. Sorted!!
The first few we did were just to get the reward for the right thing sorted, then we went on and did some with the pig further out. I was really pleased with myself, because three times I told her about the smell without going to the spot right over the pig! The lsst time I didn't even get wet!! you see, it's difficult for her to be able to know when I've got the smell in my nose - so we have to work as a team! The last one was really easy, even though it was really deep and far out from the shore - but it had been in the water about 45 minutes, so the smell had gone a long way, and was easily coming ashore - Easy peasy!
I thought that was the end of the training, because we went home, dropped Flash off, and a load of gear, but then we went back. They then blew up the boat, for the first time, and we went for a play in it!! What fun that was ... lovely day, Phil rowing, because we haven't got the engine yet, Sian sitting in the back with a gin and tonic
(- ok, maybe not) mooching through the lagoons. After a while, I was busting for a pee, so I just jumped out, swam ashore, had a pee, swam back, and Sian pulled me aboard, saying what a well mannered lady I was! We got a bit worried when we were coming back to land though - 2 small children, without life jackets, were in a floppy inflatable, smaller than ours,
and paddling out into the lake, with no grown ups with them. I had visions of having to search for real, well before I'm ready! Scary really! Sian asked some people if the children were theirs, and told them where they had gone, but the muppet of a man said it's ok, they can't swim but they can shout!! What a
Luckily they were ok!
Anyway, we had a great time, and are now totally pooped! I've had a nap on the sofa with Sian, been out for a walk and am Ready For Bed!

Are you aware that the news you are watching is interlaced with Communist China's propaganda,as
Communist China maps a realm of news with innocent lives?
Communist China is scheming a millennial terrorist activity by manipulating people's behaviors
through electromagnetic waves to contain criticism and harm innocent human lives.
1. The anomaly in community traffic of cars and motorcycles and drag racing,and reckless honking by
cars and motorcycles is exceeding an unprecedented level.
2. Communist China has the technology to scan the human brain waves through military satellite and
to discern and decipher their thoughts,scheming to instill individual interference focusing on
each individual in need using the satellite electromagnetic waves.
3. Deploying electromagnetic waves is poised to project onto the human brain with certain
sounds for the perception of grossly traumatizing or startling pain,or deploying the broadcast
of noise via electromagnetic waves in sleeping humans with edited clips of films or through
voice or image signals onto our brains or besiege our sensory functions with fabricated
audible and sensory illusions.
4. It manipulates one's moods,such as smiling,nervousness,disgust,panic,anger,sorrow,
desires,appetite,and so forth.
5. It interferes the human brain's thinking capability,memory or linguistic capability,to name a
few,causing spasms of muscles and fingers in the left and right hands,stinging aches
throughout the body,coughing,yawning,trembling,involuntary blinking of the eye,runny
nose and so forth.
6. Electromagnetic waves are deployed to hinder the motoring functions of the body and neck,
disrupt the heartbeat or respiration,manipulate dizziness,deprive one's sleep,spasm,saliva
gland,dental neural pain,etc.
7. Watch out that Communist China is infiltrating the news media by deploying electromagnetic
waves to besiege the broadcast media,map out viral disillusion or erroneous perception,and
investigate threats of brainwashing in viral spreading.
8. It further moved to deploy various symptoms in what one sees of media icons,gesture terms,
adding a skewed interpretation to one's cognitive awareness,misleading an individual to
hallucinate or suffer,such as the North Korean's rigid smile,which is a tactic Communist
China often deploys to counter the people.
9. By observing the resolution accuracy of Communist China's sound and image (scenario)
interference projected onto the human's brain,this can only be achieved with a certain level
of frequencies at the source of interference,hence there is no doubt that it has to be the
electromagnetic wave. Yet questions remain as to what range of frequencies the source of
interference deploys,or what kind of electromagnetic waves insulation chamber would suffice
to provide an insulation yield? Communist China might deploy specific metal alloys as small scale
molecular antennas, which are attached to the human brain in large number,creating
electromagnetic waves when the human brain is in function,where the current created by
Communist China's electromagnetic interference would poise to amplify in a staggering
number of multiplication,which Communist China can detect at all times to discern and
muscles would excel the generation of electrode,which in turn create a corresponding
electromagnetic wave within.
10. Some of Communist China's intimidation experiences in 2002:6.9 "Hey,are you tired of living?"
6.14 "We had concocted the bombing incident at the U.S. embassy in Pakistan"
"Jiang Zhemin ordered us to kill you,but without creating scenes"6.16 "The Pakistani
civilian troops confessed that they had schemed the bombing of the U.S. embassy in
Pakistan,which we had manipulated them to confess,so what are you going to do about it?"
6.19 "Hey,why don't you just go ahead and commit suicide""We are going to scheme
murder using the public bus"6.20 "Commit suicide by burning charcoal,get it?"6.25 "Jiang
Zhemin just does not like you,go hit your head against the wall".
11. I reckon that there are victims abound out in the street,no less alarming than wars,and those
not in the know or did not understand that Communist China's simple electromagnetic design
could easily turn people against each other,create moving incidents,little lese to say mislead
the youth to broach down the wrong path,suicidal prompting,design and fabrication of a host
of society news (which Communication China refers to as movie making),as Communist China has had a
decade long of the technology,and has long abused its technological advantages to scheme up design
of abusing human lives by arranging fabricated news to poison and infiltrate the free
world,manipulate and misguide the contents of the media,and deploy brainwashing and malicious
spread of viruses,done with insinuation and riddles.The fact that Communist China's slaughtering
the innocent had been the result of a high level of calculation,and a high level of rationalization,
where the threats are in existence,and cannot be ignored of their detrimental severity.
12. Communist China often coerce people to watch news compiled by the reporter Lu Yuling of the cable
news in order for them to be saved,but few are aware that Communist China had merely deploy the
reporter to entrap many people. I do envision that those that turn to committing crime as framed
by Communist China,the extra sufferings by the ordinary people,and the deaths of many innocent
lives will not go unnoticed as hindered by a condoning attitude.
13. Nazi Hu Jintao, Jiang Zemin, Chinese Liberation Army, security police and armed police have committed suppression and massacre on their own civilians. Hu, Jiang and the other atrocious butchers owe these innocent civilians! More horrible and serious is that they are using mysterious killing technologies to cause harms to human brains around the world, making advantage of numerous international politicians and journalists to help them commit atrocities and beautify their actions, aiming to overturn and suppress those innocent people and cover up their terrorist acts and win fame by cheating the world. Securing in the knowledge that they have strong backing, these arrogant and shameless butchers have committed tortures and mass killing cruelly to those innocent ones around the world. Unfortunately, neither these politicians and nor journalists knowing what is what would dare to express their conscience.
14. The inhumane acts and atrocities committed by Nazi China are far more vicious than that of Nanjing massacre in China during WWII committed by Japanese army, as Chinese government is using mysterious technologies to commit massacres to masses of bare-handed civilians around the world as well as launch violence and terrorist activities to suppress these completely unarmed people’s freedom of speech. These demons, like Hu, Jinag and Chinese Liberation Army, despise the chastity, dignity and precious life of those innocent ones and suppress the emotions of their beloved. Meanwhile, relying on the condition that most of people in the world will not be able to witness their vicious acts of violence and behaviors they have committed unscrupulously and shamelessly, these Chinese Liberation Army enjoys using cruel ways to torture, massacre and trample on these innocent people, physically and mentally, in one free world. The arrogant Hu, Jiang and those jackals nurtured under such ferocious power treat themselves as the symbol of benevolence and hero, as they fail to learn their gutless and vicious acts to trample on those innocent people. If these demons, butchers and dregs of human, such as Hu, Jiang and Chinese Liberation Army who have become frenzied and conscienceless appeared in the site of Nanjing massacre in WWII, they definitely would be the leading roles to act atrocities!
15. We don’t want to see masses of innocent people to fall victim to the hell on earth built by red China where they will be susceptible to tortures and massacres for thousands of years.
16. Despite being even unable to fend for themselves in face of the high-tech detriments and attacks from China, we can not tolerate the fact that these politicians and journalists will become the accomplices to help China commit its terrorist acts and suppression on these innocent people in the current era or an unknown future.
17. In view of the notorious, vicious and sinister Hu, Jiang, Chinese Liberation Army with blood-stained hands, we just cast doubt over whether these greats of knowing what is what who have negotiated with these demons will show their conscience to save these innocent civilians or will act just for the sake of their profits, or are under the control of China. In this current drowned world, how will these innocent lives be treated in face of the atrocious acts committed by these diabolical figures, or when these innocent people will witness the practice of democracy in China? Will these phenomena turn out to be the joint efforts and endeavors achieved by China and those powerful figures in the world? Are we really dedicated to overturning such adversity? Our goal is to eliminate the vicious power one day with our strenuous efforts, and we absolutely will achieve it!
