When Miranda and I were out on our bikes today we passed a woman walking her dog, a very well clipped Highland Terrier. Some time later at the marina Miranda was playing some game or other, involving running around with a stick and waving it in the air.  The dog had been sitting obediently with it's owner on a bench, but unexpextedly he launched into the air and bounded towards Mipp.

She was mortified... and standing about 25 feet from where I was sitting.

The dog owner sensing Mipp was not happy, ran over to intervene although there was no danger of her being mauled. Licked to death maybe, but Miranda could not see the humour in the situation. I found it particularly amusing to watch the indignation on the dog's face, having been excluded from Miranda's game! Topical this, because Miranda has been complaining about being excluded herself in the school playground....

All I can remember about this picture is the little characters on her dress were gingerbread men...
