Met a friend for our usual dog walk this morning and saw this pretty common sight. Sometimes the dog gets too old to enjoy a full walk so the owner gives it a bit of help. Our friend did this when her dog got to that stage. Some dogs still enjoy an outing, even when they are not quite up to it. Owner looks like he could do with a bit of help too.

The litter containing our next dog is due to be born in around 10 days time, we are having first choice of the litter so we'll bring it home a couple of months or so after that and when it’s completed all it’s parvo jabs, a few weeks after that we'll probably be safe to walk it out around November time. Looking forward to lots of dog walking weekends away. We're like a couple of expectant grandparents-to-be at the moment. :mrgreen:

Just signed up (again) for another Amex Gold card. £195 a year but only payable from the second year on (when I will cancel before payment is due). Loads of benefits but the 'catch' is that you don’t get the benefits again if you rejoin within 24 months of cancelling so you have to time your applications. This will be my 3rd one - me and Mrs Mottie alternate. Main benefit for me will be the 4 free lounge access passes that I’ll use when going on my cruise this year. 2 out and 2 back. Gatwick lounge is a bit of a café but the Malta one is ace. Last time we went there the departures lounge was like this:

But the lounge was like this:

You can just see Mrs Mottie having a cuppa - I was off getting some alcohol down me neck. They have a veranda too where you can sit outside and watch the planes come and go. I think it’s €45pp entrance fee now but completely freeeee. For meeeeee! :mrgreen:

* Never noticed this before but in both of those pictures, someone is giving me the evil eye. :ROFLMAO:
