The journey took as through Sandbanks and although he was looking out Dave didn't manage to find a single Evoque to wind up, however while waiting in the queue for the Studland ferry, someone in a very large and very blinged Range Rover Vogue did try and bully his way in. It became a bit of a battle of nerve between a jack russell and an oversized pitbull, but guess what, that jack russell won and the big nasty pitbull had to give in.

If you have never been on it the Studland Ferry is a chain driven ferry from Sandbanks to Studland, it takes about 10 minutes to cross.
Can you guess what my latest gadget is?
So after we had finished our walk it was time for the non drivers to have a few beers, I was on the lime and sodas, before we headed back again.
I wonder is it a sign of success or celebrity status when you get photo bombed?
I'm pretty sure this was the first time it happened to Dave, but I'm sure as he becomes more famous it will happen more often!
So now for the journey back, the ferry is very pleasant, however it's big downside are the queues.
You know the ones, that appear to go on forever, and as you get closer and closer to the front your excitement grows, sometimes though it's not about the excitement, it's about the 'We're running really late and we need to get there ASAP'.
So we are edging forward, one car at a time, loading onto the ferry, 4 cars infront of us, 3 cars, 2 cars, 1 car.......YES and there is space......STOP!
STOP!!!!!
Just how big do you think I am?
I could definately fit behind silver Puma.
And Dave is now left sat on the slipway.
However the view down here is fabulous, and watching all the boats coming out from Poole harbour is fantastic.
The other advantage is when the ferry comes back, I'm at the front of the queue to get on and I had worked out which lane would unload first at the other side.
And the award for stating the obvious goes to the person who put this sign on the ferry, why would anyone not have their brakes on?
Oh and incase anyone follows football, one of those houses on the left belongs to Harry Redknapp, he wanted a photograph taken with Dave, but as we were in such a rush we had to decline his request.
Another great day out, thanks to Dave for getting us there and back. It's now eleven months since I collected him and he is still as much fun to drive as that first day.
Oh yeah and have you guessed what the new gadget is then?
Yep a selfie stick!
