Glad to hear your family are OK Celtic.

No news on the job yet can you believe it? I have been told it is all "positive" so thats all I know.

I finish up on 18th February and will spend the last week at my daughters trying to tie up all the loose ends. Wow this moving is a BIG job!!

Sorting clothes at the moment, why do I have so many?? Especially those that don't fit!! The charity shops will be doing well very soon.

It reminds me of the husband who frequently heard his wife complain that she had no clothes that she could wear so he put an ad in the newspaper that said "will the person who has her clothes hanging in my wife's closet please come and remove them as soon as possible"

Cheers

Hey Celticspirit are you involved in any way on the importing of shelter chihuahuas into Texas from California? I know that we have a plethora because of that clown Paris Hilton. Have been hearing that we send them to Canada and Texas where there is apparently a shortage of small dogs.

Yes, all those Huskies and Malamutes need a steady supply of bite-sized snacks.

Slapping you now, irreverent bersterd!
Don't know if you folks in UK saw, and no doubt don't care, that a 5-year-old Scottish deerhound named Hickory was awarded the best in show prize at the Westminster Kennel Club (biggest deal here in the dog world). Love those sighthounds....noodle nose, spaghetti legs!

Do you know if that's an usual thing then, the reporting of the US winner? Maybe because little known UK breed? He's lovely though. Don't think there will be a huge run of people out to buy them here when they find out how quickly they grow, how much exercise they need, and how many puppies they have in a litter.................and you can't put them in a purse!
