Tilly gets her sea legs


After mooring up yesterday at the Jack Mytton near Ellesmere we put Tilly ashore as we usually do. Only this to
time she decided to charge up and down the towpath with the spirit of a racing greyhound. Then she did something she had never done before and that was to jump back on to the boat. The only problem was, much to the delight family on board, it was the wrong boat! She rushed below like some pirate raiding party and reemerged with the trophy of a pink bunny slipper in her mouth and shrieks of laughter from a six year old girl The girl was convinced Daddy had bought her a surprise puppy. Anyway one word from me and Tilly does exactly what she wants so attempts to catch her were futile. It required the authorative voice of POS to bring the situation under control. Nobody disobeys POS!
