Each time I open the door to the garage it is like looking at a puppy that doesn’t understand why it can’t go out and play! Very good!

Each time I open the door to the garage it is like looking at a puppy that doesn’t understand why it can’t go out and play! Very good! My puppy, Harry the never grown up Irish Setter, came out into the garage yesterday and stood by the passenger door and looked at me, as if saying I want to go out for a ride in it again.

Careful out there on untreated roads my smart Roadster let go three times yesterday morning on the way to work, hate it to happen in the Mog. I managed to get a bit of tail slide with Caroline's Merc on Wednesday despite the car having all the clever computer stuff to keep the back end planted. Mind you with 398 ft lbs torque from 1600rpm it is not that surprising!

I look out the window and think I'll go for a blast, roads don't look too bad, but then after some local runs in the tin top through the back lanes I lose my nerve. It's just mud and ice out there.
Still, our flat coat is enjoying all the walks in the forest.

No, is an easy answer……
New puppy has taken focus while Mrs Tuftie rides her horse, someone has to look after the future 'dog in a Mog' it seems…..been raining for weeks, window of opportunity on Saturday only for the water people to dig up the drive…..Mog stranded in garage, had hopes for Sunday only for snow to spoil the plans, did manage about 20 mins drive weekend before last, but all in all seriously it's been the worst winter for drives since I became a mogger….not one brilliant crisp cold but sunny Sunday morning blast yet…fed up!
