Oh it's been ages since we met up with our dear friends M and J.
Far too long.
In between horrid weather, winter viruses and them swanning off to Munich to visit family, I've been missing my favourite walking companions. And not only 'cos M can be relied on to carry biscuits big enough to satisfy a labrador's appetite in her coat pocket...
We met on Sunday in Maryculter Community Woodland and made our way to the lookout point for elevenses. It was almost warm!
I helped M and J find a seat, but my offer of further assistance with organising the mid-morning refreshments did not seem to be appreciated.
After posing nicely, once the humans had finished their coffee I carefully checked that no scraps of food had been left behind.
On the way back to the car I jumped in some agreeably muddy puddles. Apparently this is the reason I was not then invited to join M, J and Gail for a post-walk lunch in a nearby restaurant.
Instead, this was my reward...
I hope my friends all enjoyed nice walks this weekend too. Perhaps without the foot bath bit.
