North Berwick Oct 08

Well last weekend was the last weekend away in the caravan this year - boo hiss! We absolutely love going away in the caravan with the dogs and it will now go into storage over the winter for about 6 months. Nightmare!

Still we spent our last weekend away at our favourite camp site at Dirleton, just by North Berwick. It is a great site because it is a 5 minute walk to the most amazing beach that the dogs love. The great bit is that the beach is open to dogs all year round, which is why this trip was our third to this site this year!

The dogs absolutely love going to the beach - I am sure Pebbles has a grin on her face the whole time. And even better she gets to play with the ball which is her favourite pastime of all time. She would chase the ball all day if she got the chance.


The weather was mixed with it being wet and windy on the Saturday but the Sunday and Monday were lovely. Cold but with blue sky and sunshine.

We were also trying out our new porch awning. We thought we would take it to try and put it up when there was time restrictions like at an agility show and when we could take our time to work out how to do it! It was actually really easy to put up although I did make a mistake on the first step which only came to light at the end so we had to dismantle it and start again - yes, Malcolm was not best pleased!! However, we got there in the end and we were really pleased with the result. It looks great and is much bigger than our last one.



The site was really quiet at this time of year too so we did not have anyone to either side of us and managed to get the windbreaks up to form a little garden for the dogs. This always makes a huge difference when letting them out first and last thing.



It is now back home to the worst months of the year with dark mornings struggling to get up and dark evenings trying to walk the dogs before you cannot see anything. Never mond we have enjoyed a great season in the caravan and enjoyed a great agility season. Here's to another successful year next year.
