Hope this is OK.

Looks like a 'wet one' and I don't mean the dogs! Such a lovely place to walk so let's all try and ignore the weather!

A super walk with lovely dogs! Nice to see a few new faces as well. Welcome to GW!

Poured with rain as I got into the drive but that didn't matter at all. 'It's the walk that matters.'

It would have been 49 hounds if I hadn't had a puncture. It was good to see you all after the walk though. ;)

Thanks for a wonderful walk. My Benny & Gemma really enjoyed it and were pleased to make some new friends as well as seeing their usual chums. The rain held off until I got home.
