Not meaning to hijack the thread but exactly how many are going and are we set on Linacre?

Pilgrim??

Yep we are set on Linacre.

I am coming with Steve and 4 dogs

Not sure - hubby's got a bad back (man-style so quadruple the theatrical paaaaaaaain routine) and I'm not sure how well Nancy (or me) will cope with lots of hills to be honest.

It's classed as an easy walk Dizzi, and I can only recall 2 hills that had me puffing and panting (whilst Katie was stood there looking down at me thinking what an old, unfit fart I was). Most of it is really easy.

Oh yeah, and what time are we thinking of? I've got a canine logistical nightmare to organise...

Canine Logistical nightmare? That sounds fun???

A late morning, early afternoon, Pilgrim?

And I'm more unfit than Leanne, Dizzi, so you should be alright and no doubt we'll probably be having rest stops - throwing dogs in water and taking pictures so Nancy should be alright..

Do grey's know Stay? I wanted to try and get a huge Dogsey group photo

oooh I'd love to meet up for walkies! Although if its this month I would need to either organise a lift or get the bus but end of this month I SHOULD (everything in the world crossed) have my driving license!! Soooo will keep checking back here for any spesific meet dates!

Starting training classes next Monday - she's only got a vague idea of her own name at the moment poor gal - and Layton persists in answering to Nancy in the hope he'll get a treat for it!

Doubt I'll get the hubby to go so it depends if I trust my navigational skills (and dog-lead untangling skills) and what the weather's doing anyway!

Can you deal with Tom woofing initially and then enjoying a walk , I want to get him and Bella off lead as they have both become ball obsessive and recall is now fab , let me know if that ok !

My grey and lurcher know stay !!!

I can't speak for all, but mine will be alright, they've met Tom anyway - Sadie runs pretty fast I'd love to see if she could match a lurcher, no chance with Bella though
