I thought I'd drop you a line just to let you know that Bacardi is absolutely fine (although I've shortened her name to Cardi which she seems quite happy with). Only a few weeks along, you'd think that we'd been together for years. She's unbelievably loyal, and fantastically well behaved. I've attached some pics, which include her first day at the beach! She absolutely loves it there and charging into the ocean is now a daily part of our routine. I'm pretty sure this is now one of her favorite things (apart from cuddling up on the sofa). All in all, everything is going great and I couldn't imagine being without her. Thanks very much for everything and I'll be sure to keep you up to date as to Bacardi's progress.

Regards,
Nick Broughton
