Mrs AA and I have just got a new addition to the family. I am unfortunately in a bit of a dispute with the provider, the outcome of which i am unsure of currently

Anyway, he is a wee English cocker spaniel and his name is Jock

yea they beat Bon Accord who are now Aberdeen FC 36-0 on September 12th 1885. would have been more but there were no nets in those days so lots of time was wasted with the keeper running to fetch the ball.

I have a lovely little dog called Phoebe. She is great. A cross of a border terrier and something else unknown. She looks like Hairy McLary (from the book??)
She is my fur child.

I used to have a ginger cat.

I called her minge, and people would shout "Oh look, here comes the ginger minge!"

Phoebe thinks she is human and that the baby is the dog..... its quite a worry. Especially when my daughter runs off to get her reins before we go out. Phoebe looks at her with disgust.
