<DIV>1 Dadslave drops Morse and I at the field,and drives home.Morse and I go in the field.After a few steps I turn round to find Morse leaving the field and walking back up the path.</DIV>
<DIV>2 Get to the main road and as there is no pavement wait for the traffic to pass.Traffic free I start to run and am pulled back to find Morse is flat. Pull hard!</DIV>
<DIV>3 Morse decides on visit to cemetery.New grass has just been laid so I pull him off there as see object of desire is fresh cat turd.He pulls flat basset again.When he realises I am not budging on this one he decides to walk on the other side of the hand rail. I bend down under it and almost fall flat on my face in the mud, the rail is so low.Now on the other side with Morse, he stares at me blandly. Doesnt want to go forward,backward,sideways....we go back under hand rail....and out of the cemetery and home.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Second Walk:</DIV>
<DIV>taken to beach and he wanted to come back in the car after 2 mins but it WAS pouring with rain...</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Third Walk:</DIV>
<DIV>1 Sits on sofa and grizzles. Turn TV off, get coat and hat, put wellies on. Get lead, put it on Morse. He gets to the front door and comes to a halt, refuses to go despite persuasion. </DIV>
<DIV>2 Go back inside, take coat, boots and hat off, put Morse back on sofa. Turn TV on. Morse starts rolling on his back and then jumps off sofa, wagging his tail at me. Repeat performance of hat, coat, wellies. </DIV>
<DIV>3 Go up the road, it is dark and he makes a dive at the grass which I presume is cat turd. Pull him away and he slips his lead and collar. Grab his neck and he does a huge YELP which sounds like he is being beaten to death - a ploy he uses to get me to release him! Lead back on. Won't go any further so frogmarched home.</DIV>
