UK Meet



My initial misgivings about the intentions of my host seem to be unfounded. She packed me up very carefully and we went to a very British letterboxing Meet. There was a lot of excitement. I got to me an authentic Dartmoor letterboxing dog -- she even had a tag on her collar! I have to admit that I'm very jealous :( What a souvenir to come home with but my own Dartmoor dog tag! At the Meet everyone seemed very nice and I was the hit of the event (okay, maybe not-- afterall, they were there for the letterboxes, but I did have my share of attention :) Lots of exchanging and stamping going on. I did learn why Lily is a Dartmoor dog, though. She is very quick and very sneaky! YT and I had hidden a hitchhiker in one of our boxes we planted for the meet, and when we went looking for Lily's box, there was our hitchhiker! Wow. I still don't know how she got past us. I guess I have a little way to go before I could hope to earn the right to be a Dartmoor dog if Lily is any example!
