That's really nice of you. All is going well so far...I'm just having problems getting blog updates through! I've been merrily sending blog updates every evening, only to find they have stopped reaching my blog for some reason.<br /><br />I'm in Gairlochy - camped by the canal. I've been thoroughly soaked the last 2 days, and I'm sure there's more to come! Patch has been a bit peeved to be out in the rain - today she protested by walking 5ft behind me (and very slowly) for the first mile before deciding she may as well get on with it.<br /><br />I'm trying to sort the blog update problem - I may have to wait until John visits in a week or so, so I can get on a computer instead of struggling with the web through this phone.<br /><br />Thanks again for the comments - they really are very much appreciated.Sophie Easterbrookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12101221895717467269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6734606034673937486.post-51820994004190426622009-06-17T12:53:16.319-07:002009-06-17T12:53:16.319-07:00Hi Sophie

I hope this message finds you well. If you need any help at all, let us know as I have quite a few comntacts up that end of Scotland who could help and would be delighted to.<br /><br />Good luck old thing!<br /><br />AlanAlan Slomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17966543499033330765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6734606034673937486.post-34267789392072849652009-06-16T03:48:45.850-07:002009-06-16T03:48:45.850-07:00Sophie

If the JR can tow the pack all well and good, you won't need to carry it!

It is difficult working around obstacles humans put in place when you've a dog companion.Even something as simple as using the loo is not as easy as it sounds - without shopping for provisions etc. I used to go camping with my 2 and I was forever being told 'you can't bring them in here' even though I hadn't even stepped over the threshold. And, with so many dogs being stolen, its difficult to know if the passer by is someone who understands and will genuinely help or runaway with your companion.<br />A day off tomorrow perhaps may be a good idea to rest the feet of both of you. Good luck on the rest of your challenge.BabsnRayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08359623097991470563noreply@blogger.com
