I walk. A lot.
I have a young, energetic Border Collie. Never lies down for more than a minute before he insists he's heard something moving.

12 Mile walks on my days off are not uncommon. At least 4 miles per day with him though.

On the long walks, I take a book and my mp3 with me. Walking down by the river is quite peaceful, so I take some food and stuff for us both and about halfway, I sit down for a short while and get my energy back and then I follow his shape all the way back.

He runs forever. Toys or sticks dont interest him. He'll chase the wildlife instead. I've fished him out of the river on more than one occasion. Striding through the town centre, soaked through, on a winters day, effing and blinding at the oblivious little bleeder.

I loves him really. Wouldnt hurt a soul. Too stupid to do anything but make friends.

It lets you fuck it, doesn't it?

Border Collies are the best. My mum and dad have always had them.
I would love a collie - we're both out all day so it would be unfair though.

I come back on my lunch break to get dragged around a field with a sandwich in my hand.
Not nearly as much fun as it sounds.
