Back for Good!

Helloooooooooooooooooooooooo!
Seems ages since I was sharing my adventures with you, but this is because i have just recovered from a mammoth adventure through Holland, Belguim and France with Mummy, Daddy, Uncle John, Auntie Trish and my very special friend Buzzby!

We set off on Sunday 30th July from Newcastle.
We sailed on a big ferry, arriving in Ijmuiden, Holland, first thing on Monday morning!
Here was the view from my cabin window!

Monday was a very busy day, we drove through Holland and Belguim, arriving in France late afternoon!

Both Buzzby and I were tired and grabbed a few moments of rest when we could!

I kept a look out for any dark clouds which may come along!

Daddy was tired too, so I snuggled next to him and talked about what I could see in the sky!

There was lots of faffing about with maps, but we arrived with Auntie Dorothy on Wednesday afternoon!

Uncle keith had had to travel over to England, but Auntie Dorothy really looked after us.
She made some lovely meals and the wine flowed!

We stayed for 2 wonderful nights, but then it was time to make our way home.

We stopped twice on route, daddy and me posing for a funny picture.
Hope this makes you smile!

We stopped in 2 lovely places.
I was tired and dozed off near the TV!

Our last night was spent in Holland.
We were on the 9th floor!

Waheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey!

Well it is good to be back!
I am going on a very very very very special adventure on Sunday and will tell you all about it in the next couple of days!

Watch this space!

Bike Racing at Scarborough!

Auto 66 Club Racing at Oliver's Mount, Scarborough.

Phew! What a good day we have had today.
We went to Scarborough and I saw lots of my friends.

Uncle Andy has a motorbike hire business and he let me sit on one of his bikes!

My friends at the Helmet Park are always pleased to see me,
they call mummy The Duck Lady! lol!

It is run by members of the Guide Dod Association!
They raise money for luvly doggies like this one!

We had a look round the stands...I saw this helmet! lol!
I wonder if I look like that when Daddy goes fast?

I found a good place for me and Daddy and Mummy to watch the races!

See how close to the track we were!

This is Ian Locher, my friend.
Ian knows me, I often have a chat with him.

We moved to another place to watch!

Just in time to see Ian take the lead and win the race.

It was a close thing! Chris Palmer was in the lead at one point but Ian won!
He was favourite to win the main Cock of the North race, but an incident at the Mere Hairpin saw him out in the first lap!

We had a great day and it was nice for me to have some man time with Daddy!
I did tell him some jokes but he strained to understand them!

Well that's it for a week I guess.
Not sure what plans are in store for next weekend but it isn't long now before we go to France.

We leave on 31st August!

Have a good week everybody!

Monday Monday!

Well there wasn't a bike adventure this weekend as it was mummy's birthday BBQ on Saturday night, Daddy was working. Hopefully I will get out for some fresh air next weekend, we'll have to see.

However we did do some talking about our forthcoming adventure.......we are going over to France on July 31st! Yippeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

We will travel over to Ijmuiden, Holland on the Ferry (Sunday evening) and travel through Belguim arriving in France on the Monday afternoon! I know we are heading to the Loire Valley and visiting Auntie Dorothy & Uncle Keith at some point!

The photograph I am showing today was taken last year at Ijmuiden when we were waiting for the ferry! Daddy had a bad back so I was keeping him company!
