A change today from mountains, forests and lochs. We are venturing into the urban landscape of Aberdeen city centre.
On Friday, when Gail proposed we walk together across town to pick up the car from the garage two miles away*, I was, I admit, less than thrilled.
Just grey city streets, no off-lead time, no playing with other dogs.
But I'm pleased to report the outing was not wholly without interest. First Gail made me 'pose nicely' by the water feature in front of Marischal (pronounced Marshall) College.
Then she filmed me watching the fountains spouting for a few seconds.
Finally, as the street was quiet, Gail let me go and investigate. I suspect she was hoping that the water would erupt again while I was enjoying a wee paddle, so she could film my reaction, but no such luck Gail!
The rest of the walk was rather boring, to be honest.
*Gail explains: A tyre pressure gauge was damaged in the Torridon burst tyres incident, and needed fixed.
