It's Springtime in Eastgate Park for the Playmobil people in our house...

[SoMuchToBits]

... and so over the next week or so, I'll be bringing you scenes of everything that's going on. Today there are several people jogging in the park. Preston is out for his morning run.

Tove and Clover bump into Sinead with her Great Dane. The Great Dane is called Nielsen.

Nielsen and Clover get on well, while Sinead and Tove have a chat.

Dog trainer Gennaro is at the park today with his own dog Jupiter.

Charmaine arrives with her puppy Marble.

Marble is learning to walk nicely on the lead.

Well done Marble!

Marble and Jupiter like each other.

Gennaro's next client is Tove with her puppy Treacle.

Gennaro is teaching Tove to lead Treacle up the ramp...

...and down again.

Treacle does very well, and gets a treat.

Sinead has a Great Dane puppy called Andersen.

Sinead leads Andersen through the slalom course.

Well done Andersen!

"Thank you!" says Sinead to Gennaro.

Orla has two puppies, Ziggy and Teasel.

She is learning to walk them on the lead together.

They both do very well - a treat each!

Bree and her children Apple and Dashiell have come along with their puppy Bumble.

Bumble is learning to fetch the ball.

He brings the ball back and drops it at Apple's feet.

Clever dog, Bumble!

Violet arrives with her dog Shadow.

Violet throws the frisbee.

Shadow picks it up.
