The site we stay on is within what was Rockingham Forest, so on Sunday we went to see Rockingham Castle and had a lovely walk through the grounds. In fact, Rockingham is a great place to go as we were allowed in the formal gardens too.
This is me in the doorway to the old ice house
It was lovely and peaceful, that is until I saw 3 partridge in the field next to where we were walking and decided to let everyone else visiting about them. Apparently that is not what a gun dog is supposed to do.
Dad said he was pleased I had missed the one that ran across our footpath and the squirrel too!

Rutland Water
We were away at the weekend for a visit to our van. Once the rain has stopped on Saturday, we took a trip to Rutland Water for a walk.
Mum managed (eventually) to get a couple of nice shots of us both but only after I was rudely photo-bombed by none other than the Murph-dog.
Here are the proper photos

Autumn
There's a chill in the air now we have entered September and autumn, so much so that I was wrapped up this morning all warm and cosy
The truth is the bed was made around me because I didn't want to get off!

New girl in town
I would like to introduce you to Lola.
She is an 8 month old Labrador who has recently arrived to live with Fergus, Max and Inca. First reports are that she has settled in very well, taken the biggest bed in the house for her own and is an absolutely sweetie.
Mum met her the other day and is completely smitten!

Fergus Walk
Yesterday we met up with a whole group of friends, some we hadn't seen for quite some time, for a walk to celebrate Fergus and his hoomans' great walk for the AHT.
We met at Thorsby Park in the morning pausing for a group photo before we set off - Mum wanted to get one of us whilst we were all still clean! I thought we did extremely well to pose as we did, and well done to the photographer (Dad) for getting such a good shot.
Left to right we have: Rufus, Jasper, Milly, Wilberforce, Me, Murphy, Fergus, Max, Inca, Milly, Poppy and Boris
Jasper - not the only one to find a muddy puddle |

Heading back to the car for a lie down while the hoomans had lunch
we met Harris who had brought this hooman who owns my Mum and sister (does that make her my hooman Grandma?) for lunch. I think he looks exceedingly well for 14 years!
Thank you to everyone who travelled a long way to join us. I know we dogs all had a good time and were really pleased to be able to say well done again to Fergus and his support team.
