The weather is supposed to be good for the walk on Sunday. We are lucky at Brandon because we have some nice shade but please remember to bring your dog's water bottles and/or cool coats (that's bound to make it rain)
We have Great British Greyhound Walk wrist bands as well as bandanas!

Hi, so disappointed we could not come to day, Pepsi has a limp, it seems to come and go. We have been to the vets had injection, some liquid to give her an xray and antibiotics. She seems to get better for alittle while then limps again. Have given her rest, and very short walks.
Okay thats my tale of woe.
I know you will have a a great walk with this wonderful weather.

Weston - Sorry to hear Pepsi has been lame, I hope it sorts itself out soon.
We missed you all today!
Straight after the next walk we are taking part in the Brandon Carnival if you're game and Pepsi better, of course?
It was a lovely walk, 39 dogs and lovely sunshine :-)

Many thanks Debbie, yet another first rate walk and great weather too. Sister Sue enjoyed walking Sarah's Polo again.
