Will had a friend round this morning and I took them and the dogs to the river at Granchester. Storm loves to leap in from the riverbank after sticks - he propels himself at enormous speed and belly-flops into water with a massive splash. Maia does NOT jump in after sticks; that would be unladylike and undignified. However, she does get very excited when Storm jumps in and runs around wagging her tail and biting the grass (not sure that this is any more ladylike, actually). She also jumps from one side of the inlet to the other - which is what she decided to do at the precise moment I had lined up to take a photo of Storm jumping in - she shot out in front of him from behind the willow tree - perfect timing, even if out of focus!
