We’re off to Scotland, I can’t believe my good fortune, I could see Mum in full packing mode- then just as my face was dropping- I saw my suitcase was being filled with things. Mum put my bowls towels, treats snuggle blanket and by the look of the amount of poo bags- it’s not just a day out!

Mum was saying” it’s like taking a baby” I thought” how does she know ??

Yoz is driving and Martins in the passengers seat, a bit too near the radio knob for Mums liking! there great friends but they don’t like the same music or volume.

We’re sat in the back, I’ve always been a good traveller cos my Mum takes me anywhere she can, I hate it w hen she leaves me, I run upstairs jump on the chair back and watch her drive off. I stay there until she comes home. See picture!

We have arrived after driving through some amazing scenery, personally , I’m not able to reach the car window, but Mum seemed impressed by the endless mountains. The Waterside lodge is good and for once it really is waterside- it’s against a bloody great Loch.

I’m looking forward to some big walks and Mums looking to find some dog friendly pubs- what fun !
