just took the three dogs out for a little walk. The kids had just been dropped off by their taxi and the driver stopped to chat, as I was trying to get the dogs onto the grass verge, when Storm put her head down and backed out her canny collar. She is really hopeless at recall( she refuses to come to get her lead on in the house until she is good and ready) So we did a couple of laps of the taxi and she wandered off to sniff.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-lancashire-21910691 (Quite a good picture if you follow the link) A gritter which slipped off a snowy Lancashire road and into a ditch has been rescued by a crane. The vehicle became stuck at about 04:00 GMT while spreading salt on the A682 in Blacko, near Nelson. A snow plough was sent to clear a path through large snow drifts to the stranded vehicle, followed by the crane, which pulled it back on to the road at about 10:00. The driver of the Lancashire County Council gritter was not injured. A second gritter and several other vehicles were stuck behind the one which left the road. Darren Reynolds, who lives nearby, said …

On BBC news this morning, a new tv channel is being launched for dogs who are at home all day. Called Dogs TV, the channel will play scenes that dogs will enjoy, the clip I saw was a dog lying down looking over a serene lake.

So the time has come boys and girls for you to pick your star driver for the season. This driver will double the points you get if you choose the correct position and he is in it. Please remember that you cannot choose the current world champion (Sebastian Vettel) This thread will close along with the first betting thread at 01:30 (GMT) on the 15th March 2013 Please remember to do this as you will be at quite a disadvantage if you forget, once closed on the 15th that's it, you will proceed for the rest of the season with the driver you chose or none at all
