11.30 she came in through the dog flap, she will be on her tether from now till we find her escape hole, one of our earlier dogs learnt to climb 3ft chain link, balance on the top and jump off, that was Bonny, Muttley watched a couple of times and although a much bigger Jack managed to do the same till he tore a claw and that stopped him, Bonny was stopped by loosening the top wire so it wobbled too much, love em to bits, Rick

did she smell of booze and cigs?, at least she can find her way back eh. Would be interesting to find out where she went I bet, get gps collar

GPS nice idea but she only goes within a couple hundred mtrs of our place we can hear her barking but she will not come, as soon as I call she goes quiet, then we hear her in the opposite direction, she travels so so fast, I really do not mind her going after all the other yard dogs we inherited did just that, but the worry is if she gets to a road or worries sheep, Rick

Arh Barmouth. It's 28 years since I visited there. I must go back & see what's changed.
A guy I worked with recommended going so I did when I split with my ex wife (needed time to think).

For Easter.
All I did was fit some LED reverse & brake lights to the truck. I've had them a while, I was waiting for the weather to improve.

What a difference the reverse lights make especially through the reverse cam. Very much better than the standard fit candle

Pete, you're slacking mate. Where's the photos of your lights?

Yup, You're right I am slacking. In my defence, botophucket seems to be messing me about

Sadly photobucket has been messing a lot of people around of late.

i Was up Barmouth way too, unfortunately not with the terrano due to brake woes. we stayed in Pennal for the week with Family, but i did cycle past the Barmouth toll bridge a couple of times (on a 66 mile bike ride that nearly killed me lol)

nice area, would have loved to take the 'big car'. maybe next time :-)
