Bertie's tutorial for Andy Murray

Gail and I are in Nottingham for a few days and I must first of all apologise for ignoring my blog friends. But you'll be pleased, I know, to hear that we visited Human Granny yesterday and today and both times found her in fine fettle.

I am mindful also that my fellow countryman Andy Murray has a big tennis match this weekend and, in order to spur him on, I have (with the help of Gail's friend Janet) made a wee video demonstrating the arts of being aggressive and tenacious - traits all truly successful competitive sportsmen and women require and in which us terriers of course excel.
PS This blog post  has all been done from Gail's 'smart' phone, so you know what to blame if the video doesn't work. You can also access it (cross paws) if you click here .

    so glad you are getting another visit to HGY Bertie lad and that you have found a playmate for sportsmanlike demo tapes... I have a conundrum; not particularly into tennis, but do watch the big matches - not a particular Murray fan and rather like the cut and style of the young Canadian. Hmmmm Canada v Scotland. Really don't care who wins, only that there be a good and healthy and non-boring (ie one-sided) match!!! It's the only thing to do on a wild and wet and foggy West coast day... Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx

  10. Congratulations to Andy, who obviously watched your tutorial avidly! (Just heard the morning news...we don't watch tennis.)

    All dogs raced in from the loungeroom when the video started and Bella had to watch it a second time...eyes about 10 cm from the screen!

  11. Bertie, we hope Andy reviewed the tapes before his match; and glad to hear that HGY is feeling good. I'm still getting my gear together for my bagging of the the Munro.
