Thanks for the ìnfo Kate. Bella, fully recovered, had her first 'walk' off the lead yesterday. On the long walk going NW out of Hingham....she just went! Across those huge fields full tilt, till she was just a white spec in the distance....she's never done that! And back, said, 'phew, I needed that!' We were disappointed at the Lizard, traffic noise, but love the walk along the Little Ouse river at Stanton Downham, if you don't mind a little drive. We'll try out your other suggestions, thank you, and would like to wish you a very good Christmas...gotta go, Bella seems to be making off with one of Penny's new leather gloves!
