SPA DAYS FOR ATHLETES.

Morris : It's been a busy week for the two legs. They've been cutting, painting, cleaning. Must be spring. We've had long walks and long snoozing. I've been outside when it's been sunny, or rather, when it's not been raining. Love my walks with Ewen. We usually have a bit of a picnic which allows him time for a cup of tea. He does like his tea. I just lie down and wait. Mabel is always itching to run so she stands around willing him to move on.

I even tried the lying down thing with Katie the other day. I mean you really have to conserve your energy. It's not easy walking through that water. I don't think she was bothered but I do like to impress her.

Mabel got her chance next. She was a wee bit iffy when she first got in the tank but Katie calmed her down and gravy bones always work for Mabel. I have no idea how she stays so thin, the amount she eats. Think she liked it. Mabel : I wasn't sure if it was going to happen. I just waited while Morris did his thing and then... IT WAS MY TURN! It was a bit scary getting in that glass box and when the water starts to come up... Katie was lovely and she gave me a massage and stretched my joints. I have a tight shoulder ( I mentioned it the other week) But the muscles of an athlete. Who knew? Very proud of myself.

It was much harder work than it looks and now I understand why Morris is tired. Slept like a log.
