My generous wife and daughter have shared their bug with me which means anything going into my body is rapidly being ejected from the closest possible exit / exits. I am therefore very much out. Enjoy it Mr Smith

I know we've had the 'assume not' on the dog front but my neighbour who was going to be taking care of our young pup 'discovered' that it's his wedding anniversary tomorrow and has scrambled into recovery mode leaving me without options at short notice. In fairness, I can't say I blame him, his wife very obviously has the Lorena Bobbitt gene so he is taking her out for the day to safeguard against personal injury of a kind we'd all like to avoid.

I'm trying to make an arrangement for a dog sitter tomorrow but if all fails, will it be a problem if I have a young pup in tow? My missus will come along and look after him, he'll be leashed/carried and is very chilled as evidenced by the picture below. He seems to find the sports exhaust on my Porsche to be very calming and generally falls asleep to its soundtrack clearly demonstrating young pistonhead potential and a sound upbringing. He is also fine around traffic/loud noise being a London dog.

I wouldn't ask if it wasn't for the fact that I've had to relinquish my place for the last three meets for one reason or another. I'd just like to know if I do have a fall back option in bringing him given the above?

I'm sure I've seen dogs at MBW, so I'd say you are fine to bring your furry friend

See you tomorrow (MX5 not TVR)

It says, "Unfortunately, except for guide dogs, no dogs may be admitted."

My car is paying the Bodyshop a visit, will I be turned away, turning up in a courtesy car covered in dealer stickers, for advertising? hehe
You're not coming in.
We're safe, I've been given an unmarked facelift version of the car I gave them with some extra doors, it's got a Turbo too. biggrin

Thanks and no worries. I'll break it to the pooch gently. This means that he is going to veto a future SLS purchase on principle. smile

Removed myself. Hope you all have a good one.
