Mission complete by Poppy & Mushroom - 101km has been reached✨🥳✨🥳. Lots of early mornings, sore legs, very happy dog, good few chats and laughs and a focussed James has kept the month going strong - not to mention the committed Poppy, hugely motivated after seeing so many donations and support messages. Thank you everyone.
Walks certainly don’t stop here, we’ve trained an athlete in Mushroom - although Holly is regularly trying to hide the alarm and takes a seat at every opportunity, even on Dave.

Happy Halloween 🎃👻

The Tannochbrae is the perfect setting for creating lasting memories.
