On Golden Pond. 🌤️ Pip loved water. Whether it was the sea, a lake, puddle or muddy ditch, he would be in there enjoying a swim or wallow. 🐶 #ThrowbackThursday (pic: spring 2011) ⏳

Three years ago today, it was announced that Pip would host The ‘Golden’ Hour on West Kent Radio! 📻 It was, of course, April Fools Day - but Pip did enjoy his proverbial 15 minutes of fame in the local media! 🎙️
