I can confirm there were dogs in the river at Bourton

I can confirm there were dogs in the river at Bourton on the Water - they looked a bit chilly, and the ducks didn't bat an eyelid.

Tried to catch one in a photo, but couldn't get past the tourists in time.

Happy boxing day folks..

I have also paddled in the river at Bourton. 1976 it was, and about three inches deep. The weather was so hot I felt like lying down full length in it, but I didn't think the coach driver would let me back on if I did, what with all the green slimy pondweed and everything. So I didn't.

Wasn't "Brum the Car" from Birmingham originally?

I can confirm that there is a dog sleeping on our bed keeping cool in the air-con. He'd happily go for a swim if someone would take him.

Am now a bit concerned about the remaining mince pies in the house. Perhaps I should eat them all in order to keep them out of the way of all the dogs that aren't here?

You have to, stubbornstains, it's the only way. It's your duty to keep the dogs safe, whatever it takes.

Eat the mince pies. Dogs safety first.

I can now confirm that Brum is in the Cotswold Motor Museum in Bourton.

I can confirm I am not fucked off with fish and I STILL do not have 3 mixed breed doggies in my flat. (Will they never no go ?)

I can confirm my dog has been over indulged over Christmas and I had to let her out twice in the night so she is now on bland foods only and she looks a bit cross.

I can confirm that Wikipedia lists at least nine placd called Bourton in Englnd alone. I haven't looked to see how many of them have a river, but I expect that they all have some dogs.
