Gentle Giant

Meet Hugo, one of the biggest, softest and most lovable dogs you could ever encounter. 

He is an 18 month old Newfoundland and weighs in at 50 kg.

And he hasn't stopped growing yet.

He is expected to achieve 65 kg fully grown. 

Mind you, Hollie dog was singularly unimpressed. He tried to chase her and would probably crush her if he fell onto her, but she savaged him. Twice! I was so proud of our little 15kg dynamo. And once the etiquette had been established they played well together and I am sure they will get on next time they meet.

Extra shows a collage of Hollie taking a breather, Hugo posing, and a very threatening cloud which thankfully passed over with no hard feelings.

Apparently, with so many Russian tanks being towed away Ukrainian farmers are now the 5th largest military force in Europe. 

Had a pleasant visit this morning from B and K, friends from the Jaguar Drivers Club. 

It felt good to have two XK8s and a gorgeous 5 litre XK on the drive.  A neighbour asked me what it's like to run a Jaguar dealership!

Hope you all enjoy the rest of the weekend, I'm off to the Jaguar spares day at Stoneleigh tomorrow. Looking forward to it.
