Here's to Ollie - a great little dog who travelled with us thousands
​of miles and never grumbled

AS many will know Ollie had cancer of the jaw earlier this year. A major op failed to arrest the disease and he steadily declined. At one point we thought his extensive experience of channel ferries might be over but he hung in and came with us to the Costa Tropical this year. Sadly, by Christmas, he was fading and within days we had to make the big decision. We knew it would come to this but it hurts of course. And Ollie was the most cute, the most inquisitive and the most stoic of our many canine friends. These few pictures tell something of his story.
