The great outdoors

 We took time to get out on the ridge today, partly to look for the pocket rocket but mostly just for giggles.
 Chester is almost fully fit, his leg is back to normal, now he has to get match fit again after four months of inaction.
 Our elderly Beagle saw fit to join us
but we were no match for Chester who, despite his lack of stamina was able to cover ground a lot faster than yours truly loaded like a pack horse with little t, waterproofs and picnic. After over an hour traversing the ridge we didn't see hide nor hair of the missing shitland.
 
Rocky reloaded with drool fuel and we set off home to carry on with the jobs list.

Hmmm, bit worrying that two legged fat bloke hasn't figured out the phrase "pack horse"!! OK, you may not want to entrust the hoss with young T, but surely the manufacture of a couple of saddle bags is not beyond the skills of a smallholder of your calibre??
