The training day with Di Talbot was cancelled today because of the snow, so off we went for some snowy walks, and I discovered:
that Bryn's sparkly white bits are actually creamy beige;
that Bryn doesn't really know how to play with other collies;
that Amber leaps like a kangeroo when chasing snow balls though snow drifts;
that Poppy the local labrador can run faster than Amber in snow because she has longer legs;
that Corker can still find someone's lost tennis ball from under 6 inches of snow;
that all the dogs think that Zak the local JR cross terrier is an amazing playmate in the snow, despite dispising him usually.......
A few inches of snow and this country comes almost to a stand-still, and the adults all revert to being kids again - one of the neighbours deliberately parked his van across the road so that the local little kids could use the sloped top of the road for sledging! Lots of fun - and the mulled wine was good too.
