Alex Have been away at an event this weekend. It was really windy and poured down and we camped so didnt really get much sleep. Last night got back home and got up at 11.20 only because Louie wanted out I was quite happy to go back to sleep. Got a bag of teddies from freecycle so day off has been worth it.

Brilliant well done everyone. Lynne Im now going to go and tot up the totals of the shows Ive done now Thank you for all your hard work. We will get another gazebo sroted for you for next season

Most are stil the same but some have changed.

Hello. Love your gorgeous fur family

I groom dogs that need their ears plucked - Bichons, Schnauzers etc and have a pair of forceps or use my fingers to pull the hair out. Using a powder such as Thornits helps to grip the hair. It does sound like Pierce's hair myabe further down the ear canal than I would dare to prob bless him.

I know they are called Mills in the US but didnt know the terminology used in Australia. Oscar's Law is an interesting read.

I have a Christmas show lined up but my Mum already does my knitting for me. Your stockings are very good I like the feathery type wool.

Good news for Emily Have heard the Welsh Assembly have approved the puppy farm application for 200 brood bitches., Morons!!

We had a mother blackbird and its baby pottering around the garden yesterday. Baby nearly twice as big as Mum with its downy feathers. Every time Mum looked at it and it open its beak to say 'Feed me, feed me, feed me!!!' Thought baby would have fully fledged by now.

Urgh back to work

Billy is Staffie x Springer Have had busy weekend and a show tomorrow Photo from walkies today:- They were all so well behaved

Hope there's nothing seriously wrong with Nico's eye Meet Billy. Hes my friends new foster doglet. Can you guess what mix he is Ended up getting bus home yesterday as train broke down on the line. Have brought car to work today as cant face doing it again. Hate buses!!

Lovely Where did you go in Italy?

Past two nights I have attempted an early night and toddled off to bed at 10pm. Problem is I end up tossing and turning for the next couple of hours and then wake up more exhausted than if I had gone to bed later Welcome back Marge Louie gives the best welcome home ever. Even if you've only been out 10 minutes Hes always ecstatic to see me which is lovely when Ive had a crappy day at work. Since my brother moved out he goes absolutely potty when they pop over!

Oops at least she didnt seem to mind.

There was me thinking of crunchies

28 August · 11:00 - 14:00 Location Cyril Hart Arboretum, Forest of Dean Closest postcode is for Speech House GL16 7EL. Turn off the B4226 (Speech House Road) at the House and follow road approx 200m you will see sign for the Arboretum.

02 October · 12:00 - 15:00 Location Ogmore-by-Sea, Bridgend, CF32 0PD Doggy walk at Ogmore beach. We park in the Rivermouth car park which has the postcode CF32 0PD and costs £1 to park for 12 hours from 1st October. Everybody welcome so please crosspost and share where you will :o) NB. The time is subject to change once we can access the tide times, but this won't be until 7 days before. It'll probably only change an hour either way though as we can still walk if it's high tide, but will be a bit more restricted. It would be nice to walk on he lovely beach though.

11 September · 12:00 - 15:00 Brean Sands is a lovely, wide open beach space for dog walking. Dogs are welcome all year round with no restrictions (YAY!). It costs about £2.50 to park on the beach and there is usually a van there selling drinks, chips and other hot food so bring money if you're going to be buying (the chips are lovely). Brean Sands is about 5 miles off of junction 22 of the M5. A nearby postcode is TA8 2RP. This is for Warren Farm campsite, but you continue on down the road a little way past Warren Farm (which will be on your right) until you see the big sign pointing left for the beach car park :o) You need to park actually on the beach and we usually turn left and park somewhere there, not too far up from the entrance.
