i was at the dentist this am a check up clean & polish replacement filling ( without anaesthetic-brave or what) 172 quid! Good grief thats just a bit short of Moos and she had 6 out, a GA and was in all day!! no wonder the bloody dentist is just back from the caribbean... fee

never having owned-or i think even cuddled a rabbit-i have followed beanies adventures for many years-and she has changed my attitude towards them.... im so sorry she has gone...and i know she will be missed-even by those who never knew her. an ambassador for Rabbits fee

be at peace all of you-and know that your courage has allowed him to be at peace at last fee & the hounds

tonight we opened a bottle of champagne to celebrate Merlys life, and the times he was able to find the good in this world. and those that had the courage to be with him to the end. fee

wishing swirly merly peace in the future..and a stress free passing..... hoping everyone concerned will be able to hold onto his joy at playing with the squiggs dogs, his favouite foods...and remember that the fear they have seen-he will never know again... thinking of you all fee

i have worked obediance competetively-now as i own hounds-i dont but most judges in the lower classes want you to enjoy it-and come back-otherwise the sport will die. i stewarded last weekend for beginners-and i like to think that everyone had a good time-and as for those dogs that were playing about-as the judge/steward you can always find something positive to say from a lovely present, to he was watching the dumbell so intently! i am amazed that someone was shown the diagram-thats not right-there should be a steward to give the person oral commands-when to turn, stop, begin & end the exercise. fee

i love my OH-hes not everyones cup of tea-in fact hes a funny bugger....being a big broken nosed glaswegian tends to make people make assumptions about him But he took over sleeping on the sofa to look after Moo at about 2 this morning-he fed Moo some soup and then found a card and wrote this in it "our darling minnie is back with us. she has had a cuddle and some chicken soup. Just realising how much i love the doggies-and more so you-love g". i woke up to find that next to me...... hes a little sweetie really.. fee

i am sleeping downstairs with moo-so am sorting out the sofa as bed-oh the joy. moo had a small piece of chicken ( beautifully roasted with herbs, and sea salt) for her tea-i will offer her a bit more before we retire. i am leaving the back door open in case she needs to use the facilities-OH has offered to do the 1-5 am shift! but as he has an eye infection and can see bugger all-i have given him the evening off! hope that carpet cleaning stuff removes blood...as i have a sort of ink blot pattern on the carpet.... fee

er-so should i give both? and if so -how much of each one? fee

do i??? er-how much of that one then? fee closest i get to herbal medicine is liquorice tea!

can someone tell me what amount of that echin-whatsit i should give Moo to help her heal after her dental surgery? i have never used the stuff-but as people have recommended it on here so many times-thought i would give it a go..... cheers fee

poor Moo is home....6 teeth...update in doggie chat fee

hope Amber is OK Jules-that must of been so scary i can send chicken ( or trout, or small sausages...or even home made meat balls???) as a get well dinner-moo is going to be circular with all te feeding up she will get fee

moo has come round from the anaesthetic OK and i can collect her at half four.....thank God. thinking of those less fortunate then me today....especially those who are grieving fee

[ Whereabouts? I don't do the collie walk BTW. Mia home safe it was the southern border collie club show just outside maidstone. dad was judging-so i ended up stewarding-which i actually really enjoy fee

i spent most of today stewarding an obediance comp. some lovely dog-i was very taken by an enormous poodle who totally did his own thing! some nice border collies-but why in gods name do they feel the need to train their dogs to have their faces pinned to the owners thigh gazing at them-it is not in the rule books-and is damned silly....and it gives the owners a funny walk! fee

well you beat me on staying up-i was walking dogs at 5am! bonkers-must be fee

michaels trip to the vet went OK-lump appears to be a small fatty lump. But Vet reckons he can see a slight milking of his eyes-cataracts starting.....not unusual at his age-but other then that in A1 condition. makes you suddenly aware they are getting older..... .. dogs are in kennels for the week of The Plumber-and we have booked a nile cruise for that week at less then half price-Woo Hoo. at least i will be able to wash!! off to bed now..sleep well everyone fee

several RMF in 1 go. 1. i was hit in the ca today-i was stationary, chap in front wanted the other lane-so decided to reverse...and Bang straight into me. deep joy....no major damage-and he did apologise-but even so.... 2. there is no stop c*** in this house-according to neighbour...you have to get the water board to sort it out from the road-so thats something to tell the plumber. the current plumbing was undertaken by a muppet with a sense of humour.... 3. plumber is booked-along with the asbestos removal men-but now need to get dogs into kennels for the week in July-i am ringing a local kennel ( family friends) after 6 tonight and am quietly praying they can squeeze my 2 in-otherwise i dont know what i am going to do..... fee

i have just cut my foot-Ow Ow OW plumber can come in and put new boiler in-thank God. its so old ( although works well) that it has asbestos in it so theres another few grand sailing away..... i know i should not say this-but my policeman neighbour is in the garden digging away with no shirt on- time for a cold drink! fee

dogs are sleeping-we had an extra long walk this am through the reserve...lovely. and then we all had the leftovers from last nights chinese takeaway for breakfast! were a classy sort in this house. i am about to tackle house work-oh the deep joy, then the lawn-and maybe the ironing. michael has a small lump on his leg-so have booked him in for his booster and to have that looked at monday...and the following week Min has her dental.....we are expecting at least another 4 teeth out. i put it off till we had moved-as i thought we were all stessed enough by that....but its booked now-and im already fretting! i have a collection of sparrows on the roof all arguing about who has first dibs on the bird feeder-cute! fee

be at peace-you were much loved.... fee

nope alreadygot one-this one "found" me-i was obviously lost in the duvet at 4.22 precisely oh deep joy fee

i am back in the land of the living-i have IT at home HURRAH i have someone coming to give me a quote about removing the 20ftx 20 ft ivy & russian vine monster dominating the end of the garden ( one chap said it was too big a job- and he is the professional gardener!) and a plumber comes on monday to quote for a new boiler... and i still love my house with a passion-we heard cuckoos this am on our am walk in the reserve.....im just such a happy bunny fee

can anyone use an out of date ( just) first aid kit/ dressings/bandages etc rather then it go in bin fee let me know and i will send the stuff on once the new stuff arrives
