In safe hands...

Gail and I returned home from Skye last night, and I shall be issuing a detailed report on the field trip course in a a day or so.

But first I want to issue a huge, massive, great big THANK YOU to Gail's well balanced and surefooted boss Ali.
What a splendid lady.

I am even prepared, on this one occasion, to disregard this blog's unwritten rule banning advertising, product placement etc. and say too that Aigle neoprene wellies are clearly the business!

  1. Now, Bertie, that's the way it should be done--always! Carried across and NOT dunked in cold mountain streams.

    XXXOOO Daisy, Bella & Roxy

    Ah well-ye see... as one who is an 'Ali' also (mid name) and knowing it to likely be short for Alison, I can tell you that it means 'noble'... and this is most certainly a noble act!!!

    Am observing, Bertie dear, that the 'no hat' option may have been taken? Looking forward to the full report! Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx

  9. Well I thank Ali too for coming to your rescue.....BUT BERTIE it is obvious she recognized your royal standing so it is only proper to carry you across the stream...or lay out a water proof red carpet which I doubt she had.
    I missed you, Gail and especially your wagging tail
    Hugs madi your bfff

  12. Oh Bertie, I surely thought that you had to manage things under your own power at Skye. How was it you needed assistance?

  18. To paraphrase an old song "If it wisnae fur HER wellies where would you be..." so three cheers to Alison for keeping your paws dry.

  19. Bertie,
    You are a loved little wirey dog. Your Mommie's boss saved you from having wet feet, which aren't fun.

  20. Of course, Bertie, you should never get your paws wet. What a look that would be! I'm sure that short flight over the stream was most enjoyable!
    Pippa :)
