Thanks for fixing it for me.

We didn't take our big camera, or in fact many photos, so will take some today hopefully. She's going on 2-3 small walks a day, gradually making them bigger and reducing the quantitiy.
Lovely pup!

In terms of walking I think the current thinking is no more than 5 mins per day for each month of age.

They get a lot of exercise from play so don't be tempted to over walk them, their joints and bones are very soft for the first 12 months..

Thanks Cookie :)

Yeah we are aware of that and are taking it steady with her.. bear in mind that a lot of the time spent walking is not actually walking at this age. Her nose is going crazy and we are concentrating on not walking her with the lead.

What I mean by that is we only use the lead as a means of stopping her darting off, we are using small flakes of chicken to lure her into walking alongside us. We walked maybe 800m total

Thanks for the concern though, I like people who care about animals!! :)

Nothing. Forecast is for "Hot-As-Fcuk" for the next couple of days. I'll lay around the house & watch The History Channel, play guitar, etc.
Maybe get some cycling in if I feel energetic (I won't).

Ta.

Off to Reims tomorrow.

Then over the next 10 days working our way round Cologne, parts of the Rhine, Stuttgart, Munich and then across the German alps to Lake Constance.

Doing it in the Jag but will be hitting some autobahns and alpine passes. Future bike trip research too i think.

Not really been to Germany much so thought we should at least tick some of it off. Mrs Cookiemonster has already booked tickets to the Lindt Chocolate museum and I'm keen to do a couple of factory tours in Stuttgart as well as drink german beer. (groupdrink)

There will be no pictures of me in Lederhosen ;)

Reims - make sure you visit the old pit lane and also the champagne fields if you have the chance.

I don't know if Frankie and Kwacky remember us going through a quaint village in the Champagne around and that woman getting quite irate at us for riding our bikes through it. Cannot for the life of me remember the name of the place. I even just had a quick look at Google maps to no avail but i vivdly can picture it in my mind.

I could look at the maps but I would be guessing at which village it was.

Silly cow.

Reminded me of a ride out I did with the 675cc lot with Rocket. Some daft old farmer ran out of a field into the middle of a busy road to shout at us.
