Dog Daze! - May 2006

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

May seems to have passed by quickly and was quieter than usual on the fell walking front. We did manage a few quality, long walks in reasonable weather, although it has taken a turn for the worse again as the month has progressed.

Casper is in full training mode at the moment, attending a weekly formal training class (naturally, he takes it all in his stride!). Angus is 'not having it' anymore with the 'Casper flypast' and gives a good bark back now should any attempt be made to thwart his progress.

I hope you enjoy this selection from the fellwalking master and the young pretender.

Pre-haircut (thankfully!) on a cold and windy Rough Crag.

We are good lads, honest! The 'wait' command worked on Water Crag, Hesk Fell beyond.

A fine view of the Scafells from Seat How.

Casper prefers to play hide and seek in the grass though.

A throne fit for a King - Angus in The Chair on Red Pike.

The boys look along Ennerdale from the summit of Steeple whilst we look over to Pillar.

Gale force winds on Looking Stead.

Nearly ready for take off!

But not too windy for Angus to have a bark and a swim in the tarn.

Hot, hot, hot on Lingmell.

Phew!

Asleep at home after a long walk.
