Newshound Ady & Flo www.sunlive.co.nz

Short and snappy this week! It's been great weather for playing in the water, even in the middle of winter, as these photos of our dogged follower Soulj reveal.

Amazing what simple things will keep a keen dog amused! Ady and I have been playing frisbee lately and the German has finally figured out that it's more fun to retrieve and play nicely, rather than chasing and bossing me around.

Small set back, however, when we lost our rubber frisbee in a pond at the lakes. Uncle's got one now that floats, so hopefully no more lost toys.

Thanks to all those who have sent photos, keep them coming: photos@thesun.co.nz
