Really, how could Gail go swanning off with her colleagues, geologising in the far north of Scotland and abandoning me in prison when we should have been in intensive training for the big dog agility relay event near Edinburgh this coming Saturday?
This relay business is very complicated you know. So much could go wrong, and I don't think Gail has practiced the baton passing thing anything like as much as she should have done.
Oh dear, yes, I am worried that Gail, with her distorted sense of priority, is going to let the whole team down.
And by the way, I hope everyone realises I am going to get VERY UPSET if forced at any point to stand too close to my team mate Manchester terrier Maddy, who, frankly, I find irritating.
What's even more irritating is that Gail is trying to make out she was doing me a kindness by making me stay in
| Helmsdale Hostel - outside |
| Helmsdale Hostel - inside |
And perhaps you can tell me just why these localities are so worth visiting that one would miss a vital training session and jeopardise the future success of the Deeside Devils dog agility team.

| An infestation of geologists at Dwarwick |
| Ammonite bearing rock on beach - Portgower |
| Windswept geologists by Dunnet Head lighthouse |
No? Beats me too.PS Many thanks to Gail's colleague Quintin, for photos 4,5,7, and 8. Quintin has a sideline in pet portraits, see: http://www.quintindavies.co.uk/
