Already been reliably informed that when I am willing to get a dog I'm not allowed either. Apparently only Golden Retrievers will do.
My ridgeback was beautiful. I will try and find a picture to show you.
I have a doberman now..he is also lovely.
In Northern Cyprus I had a Kangal, it is a Turkish shepherd dog, they are amazing.

The grammar in the title to this thread?

Please give me a PM if you need help with Remedial Studies! I realise that it must be difficult when you have to get around to talking about Numbers! - They are the ones on the top of the keyboard darling!

We had a friend staying with us last year, she was adamant that Germany won WWII.

And after a night out, one of her livers was hurting.

Scarily, she has a good job for a big IT consultancy firm.
