  1. We went to look at a house when my son was around 4 years old. He asked me if the man of the house was having a baby! Just because he was carrying a little bit of a tummy! Unfortunately, he didn't say it quietly. Oooopps!
  2. I think it isn't just your Tesco that has gone wonky. I sent 17 year old and his Dad to the big one near here, and they hadn't taken an re-useable bags, so they had the Tesco freebies. They said they were glad to get out then, as the whole store had run out of disposable bags! He reckoned on there being a mutiny! Whoops! Talking about men going around speculating on houses, we had a couple of lads at around 2 am a couple of weeks ago , trying all the car door handles on our drive, and our neighbour, then they went along the next street which we can see from upstairs. It is very scary watching someone doing that. We probably caught them on the camera at the front, but you now have to have a licence to record such stuff, so we are keeping quiet, or the lady at the Council house will make us get one! The local police know, and have used them for information in the past. Sometimes it is useful just to see the footage on our tv, even if they don't need to see it, as you can tie in events and bodies (alive) with specific times, which could assist them with their enquiries. The police came, but didn't get out of their car, so we feel they missed them, but it is not nice seeing someone doing that at all.
  3. I would get him to put a post on www.biggsd.com as soon as possible. Good luck to her and him in finding a suitable new home.
  4. Jules those pictures of him just ooze "I am so happy" and you should remember him like that during your sad moments. I know you will have a lot of those sad times now, but gradually the happier times will be the ones you must remember. Thanks for being so brave for him, and also for managing to put a thread on here about him. It is something I couldn't do so soon after I have lost a pet. You and he have made a lot of people happy just seeing those treasured 'photots.
  5. There won't be anything we can do to help you feel better at the moment. You need to be strong and think of the good times you shared. We are all here with our hearts aching with yours, please take care, and come onto the board if you need a chat. You are a good dog owner who knew her dog needed a long sleep.
  6. Very sorry to hear your cousin left us earlier than you hoped.
  7. Have had 6 babies, 4 were born at home. They were the best births, because it seems more natural in your own surroundings. Plus there are your own germs and less likely to get an infection from another patient! Keep active as long as you feel comfortable, it will help you stay fitter for labour and a quicker recovery after the birt Agree with what has been said so far, keep moving, stay as upright as possible, and if you think they will try to get you on the bed kneel at the side of it. Gas and air is fine if you feel you need some pain control, as it is out of your system (and baby's) very quickly. Remember to breath deeply and slowly, stay calm, and let your body do the work. Welcome each contraction, remember that each contraction will be bringing you closer to holding your baby! Cook some meals ahead of time and store them in the freezer, not just for after the birth, but for those days when you are tired from being up in the night, or baby has been feeding non-stop because of a growth spurt. Enjoy the rest of the pregnancy, people may start to give up their seats for you and watch out for those who cannot help pat the "bump"!
  8. So sorry to hear about your gorgeous charges having to depart this world for the Bridge. Stay strong to help more animals.
  9. It probably would make them worry. At the time we were between dogs, and therefore had none. The cats could go out if they wanted to. However nowadays they don't all go out, and we have a lot of foster cats in too, so it is a good job we have been done already.
  10. I have just read some of the comments written about the article which was published in the local paper. All I can say is why did most of them bother? None are helpful or kind, and make you wonder are these people "for real"! Certainly doesn't make me want to visit the area with locals around like that. I hope he comes home safe and sound as we all do on the Refuge!
  11. It is a very long time since we had it installed, but we did it almost as soon as we had moved in. If I can recall, as long as all any delicate items, such as glass dishes are removed from window ledges and shelving units, there should be no real need to have any men in the house as when our was done, they drilled holes on the outside wall, and then filled the holes when all the foam was in. These days they sometimes use foam beads which get blown in, but different companies will probably differ slightly. You will probably have to have a man in to do an inspection pre installation. Don't worry, they will be used to having to deal with dogs similar to yours, and it is just another day at work for them. As long as they know you are concerned, and are doing your best to help facilitate their work, it will be appreciated.
  12. Lisa so sorry to hear your sad news. Rest easy Logan.
  13. So sorry to read this now. Sorry it's late, falling over the dogs, which put me in a sling for a while, and then a holiday prevented me seeing this. But I have had cats lost to the road, we are down a lane, quiet one minute, and then very busy due to a large comprehensive school next door. Now any cats I keep as opposed to fostering, are not allowed outside. I have had the job of taking to the vet and burying them in our garden too many times. It is sooooo painful and meaningless. I understand it was not the same circumstances for your poor little one, I remember how you tried to help him get better all that time ago. Hugs to all the family.
  14. I also missed this sad story. It is never easy to lose a loved one, you are in shock now, and disbelief. As someone said earlier, to watch out for the getting worse signs of a much loved pet is also soul destroying, and you feel sick in the bottom of your stomach. (As I did nearly two months ago with my foster cat suffering from mouth cancer). There is never an easier time to lose one you love, and all we can do is offer our support to you guys as you come to terms with your boy playing hard at the bridge. Take care.
