A brief update.

On Sunday I awoke to find we had some snow/hailstones overnight leaving quite a covering.
It rained on and off and most of it had cleared away by the time my new crew mate arrived around 6pm.
Jack, an English Bull Terrier.
I have intended to get a dog since I began boating but have either found excuses or not seen a rescue dog I liked at a convenient time, Jack (I have renamed him, he was formerly Maverick) was bought by my son along with his brother (two puppies), in theory it sounded great, two brothers to grow up together but that proved to be impractical, they fought trying to claim dominance and with my Granddaughter being small and curious the risk of her getting caught between them became too great, so I was asked if I wanted to take one of them, and Jack is the result.
We intended to move on today but the weather forecast wasn’t great and I still had a few bits to sort out for the new arrival so we have stayed put and will head off tomorrow.


Jack and I are getting used to each other meanwhile, he’s still at the chewing stage (4 months) so I have been discovering what is at risk (most things) and what is ok (not much), and I now need a new pair of headphones! 

Other than that he seems to be settling in well.
