My Mistress should be on the train by now, travelling back from Switzerland. I can\u2019t wait to see all the pictures of Megan. I\u2019m looking forward to hearing all about her and about the other dogs that my Mistress has met. There really ought to be a version of Facebook just for dogs, where we could all keep track of what each other are doing.<\/p>\n
I am looking forward to both going home and then going on holiday. Shadow and I are being taken to Scotland for the first time. We are going to a place called Pitlochry, which I think means being in the car for quite a long time, but my Mistress has promised that we\u2019ll like it when we get there. I\u2019m not sure what\u2019s special about Pitlochry, I\u2019ll have to tell you that after we\u2019ve been. Shadow is anxious about the journey. I\u2019ve been trying to explain that the best thing to do is get yourself into a comfortable position and then go to sleep for a while. The journey passes really quickly then. She\u2019s not as good at sitting still as me and finds it much harder to get comfortable. She\u2019s still at the stage of saying \u201cAre we nearly there yet?\u201d even on short journeys. I need to be patient with her and take things with us to keep her amused. She may not be quite big enough to see out of the window when she\u2019s sitting up, so there will be severe limitations to playing I-spy. We could play the game the children like, where you go round the car building up a shopping list and have to remember what everyone else has said, but that doesn\u2019t work very well with two and I\u2019m not sure that my Master and Mistress will want to play. They have enough of it with the children.<\/p>\n
