I don’t have a dog of my own – I am out too much and they have to be walked (at least once) every day so are too much of a tie. The dog in my brother’s family, Sasha, is also extremely badly behaved – out of the house, even though she is lovely inside….

ANOTHER holiday…..
This was the holiday that was (partly) paid for by the cancellation of the singing holiday. I had chosen three nights, so 2 days of walking, at Lulwoth Cove. This was partly because it is my closest hf house – only 1½ hours drive away, so ideal for a short break – and I was…
Take a holiday in the Cotswolds
