THANK you very much to letter writer Derek Reed (The Press, June 12) for his compliment on our Great Global Greyhound Walk.

This is an annual event starting from the Fulford Arms. We walk altogether approximately three miles around the riverside, over a few bridges then back for a lovely fun dog show and refreshments.

We forge lovely friendships with like-minded people and support our retired greyhounds.

This year Blue Cross judged our little show and my whippet got a rosette and biscuits.

We all get a medal for completing the walk. Lovely.
