Dog Daze! - April 2006

(formerly known as The Angus Diaries - now it's double trouble!)

During April Angus gained a new fell-brother, Casper, and one became two! So it's goodbye to The Angus Diaries and hello to Dog Daze! Now of course there are twice as many opportunities for candid out takes from the Angus and Casper diaries.

From Angus' point of view, Casper is like an annoying little brother. His favourite game is to lie in wait for Angus and then run at him as fast as he can with a flourishing "woof" as he does so (see some of this on the clip below). Of course, Angus is far too statesmanlike to respond to this childish behaviour, but I know he finds it very irritating so it can't be long before a warning response is fired across Casper's bow.

I hope you enjoy this selection from the fell-walking master and the young pretender.

Enjoying the view from Walla Crag.

and in a thoughtful mood.

That's a lovely pose on Stickle Pike...

...thanks, but I've had enough now...

...be seeing you!...

...whoops, wrong way!

The eye is on Latterbarrow.

That was a great swim to get this stick in the River Duddon.

Casper knows an easier way to get it though, even if Angus is not impressed!

Up on Blawith Knott, the miniature Casper gets a ride on the giant Angus' back!

Is there anybody in there?

If only my tongue was a bit longer, I'd get that fly.

Looks like Angus is falling asleep on Beda Fell.

See the Hungry Hippos on Beda Fell. (Please excuse the heavy breathing!)

Casper ahead by a nose on Great Burney.

Or is he?

The finest sight in the whole of England (and the Scafell range!).

Reflected glory.

On the way home from Hard Knott, Casper had a (short) swim in the River Duddon.
