The picnic never happened, it was far too cold and windy for that, the food would have blown away. We did take her for a walk though and a kickabout with one of her tennis balls, which she loved.

Today we've had a thunderstorm so I cranked up the speakers on my PC to drown out the noise and sat holding her until it went, it's the only way to stop her shaking and doing damage as she tries to find a safe place to hide.
