I really don't remember the details. I think you were all having a meal but I do remember you had really blond hair. The weird thing is that we've hardly even "chatted" together on here much. I guess something you've said somewhere along the line has stuck in there somewhere. Either that or I'm just losing the plot, which is entirely possible

That happens to me, some things said on here just stick in your mind

Don't worry girls, my Dr says this behaviour is perfectly normal for "someone like me" and don't believe a word about "that business" last year, that woman is perfectly fine now :scared:

I don't suppose the house buyers would take the cat would they. Ours did and there was so much relief that Fluff would stay at her home for the rest of her natural. We get messages about her every now and then and apart from the first week when she ignored or scratched the new children, they all now love each other to bits. One rabbit went next door and the other one went to friends so we can keep in touch with all our babies

I don't want to play this game anymore..................................... because I have just spent the best part of 2 hrs drilling, putting up black iron curtain poles & new tab top curtains..... only to find that the 54 inch drops I had bought are actually 52 inch drops!!!

I'm trying to talk the wife and kids out of taking our 5 year old rottie (Becky) mainly because of how much it will cost but also because our neighbour loves her to bits and has already asked what were doing with her and offered to have her.i know it sounds cruel but I'd let him have her in a flash,he used to work at the PDSA and the RSPCA and he thinks more of his pets than his wife,the guy just lives for his animals but Chris reckons that after taking our girls away from every friend and family member they've got that it's just to much to get rid of Becky aswel so it looks like she's coming with us

the only reason we wouldnt be allowed in is cos we could drink all of those fairies under the table in less than an hour mate

yep i know that it will be between 3 and 4 grand but I'm out voted by 3 daughters and a pain in the arse wife. sounds cruel i know but i don't think Becky will last more than a year,she's got metal plates in both back legs at a cost of about £3500 each leg and she can only have restricted exercise as we've been warned that if her legs go again then it's good night Becky, you try telling an over active rottie that has basically never grown up that she can't run full pelt and jump over fences honest she's just like a pup,she never gets tired and thinks everythings a game......she's not got the hang of "eat the mother in law" yet but i live in hope

Mate under those health circumstances, I would take a trip to your vet to back you up.

That is one gamble I wouldnt take. I hear what your wife is saying about your daughter leaving her mates behind, but as a veterinary nurse, I would advise you not to take that dog with that kind of problem if the risk of her legs going again will mean euthanasia.

You are definitely right to worry.
