Jesus fucking christ.
There I was in a quiet spot of the park, deliberately. Enjoying sitting Bailey down, walking around, dropping stuff. NO MOVEMENT. HOORAY.
Worked out walking to heel on the street is difficult because "FUCKING HELL I'M GOING TO THE PARK! yes!"
Do a heel and then a memory retrieve, great heel work! (well in comparison).
Do some sit, ball into the hedges (no poo), out you go, retrieve stuff.
THIS IS GREAT. What a great day.
Oh oh. What's this? It's someone from the parks in a high viz, two guys have just pulled up outside the park just in our line of sight.
I MUST GO AND BARK AT THEM.
And then run into the fucking road in front of a bus.
No dead dog today. But it was close.
I should have left the long lead on and then I could have trodden on it. But I'd taken it off because it wasn't long enough for all the things I was doing and "where I was was quiet".
