Lets hope all goes well and they have a safe and uneventfully journey. Which way is she going. ;D ;D I hope so, too. The last time she came here (the third time she's been by the way) she headed north instead of west and did a 10 mile return trip to get back to where she went wrong. This journey at least has been successful. 'Tis confirmed that the intrepid travellers have arrived safely.

Must have missed her. There I was waiting behind a tree along the A11 all day, mask over the face and bag of dog treats ready to tempt her away....... ;D Hope she has settled in ok and looking forward to hearing all about it (with pics of course)

The lovely girl travelled back to ours and I didnt know she was in the car, not even the slightest murmur and once at traffic lights I glanced back to see if she was OK, she was sound asleep My hooligans were a bit bouncy when we got home but she coped with that OK, she had the tiniest grump at Fenton who was being an idiot and Jade had a grump at her when she stuck her nose up Jade's bum After inspecting our place, and taking a lot of interest of the kitchen worktops but not touching anything up there, we all went over to the yard, inspected the office, the workshop, all the lovely smells in the yard then went to visit my mum (who lives next door to us in the farmhouse), a thorough inspection of her downstairs was carried out and we all happily went back home where I had a sandwich. Rosie is going to be another expert kitchen helper I think We went back to the yard to feed the horses, she met Tinka (one of the horses) over the gate and seemed neither afraid of her or aggressive towards her - my hooligans were bombing around a bit as they know that when the horses are fed they're allowed in the back fields, this did unnerve her a wee bit and she stuck close to either David or I for a bit. She enjoyed mooching around the field and seems particularly keen in rolling in horse poo, at least she hasnt learned to eat it yet like the others she did seem a bit worried when they started zooming and raa raa-ing around the field but she did have a couple of short runs (and boy can she move, poetry in motion). A lovely, lovely lass who so far hasnt put a foot wrong. She takes treats gently and in the most ladylike manner, waited nicely for her dinner and when she had finished didnt object to the ritual of licking out each other's bowls. Photos coming as soon as Ive downloaded them!

Safely delivered at 1.15 p.m. I went M.11 A.11, all very easy. I got home in 50 minutes. Hope there weren't any speed cameras on the way home. 110 mile round trip.
Yvonne and Rosie seemed so easy in each other's company. Lovely ;D
