Rest in peace Lesley

Yama, Loki, Budda, Homer, Luci, Bob, Mintoe, Mia, Mao, Lily & Cheesecake would like to thank their Secret Santas Present opening started off so well, everyone sitting and waiting their turn: Loki loved his Duck: Budda was delighted to find treats just for him: The cats shared with the foster kittens: Everyone loved the food: And a great time was had opening presents: Then the nip-heads realised what was in the box: Leading to fisticuffs at dawn: I'm afraid I had to leave the room then, I didn't feel safe Many thanks to SS's and to Phoebejo for organising it again.

Yama, Loki and Bud got their SS present today.

I'm still waiting on Mintoe, Luci, Mia's present and Loki, Yama and Budda's present.

Homer & Bob's present(s) have arrived, thanks SS It never occurred to me to lock the double-wrapped-stuck-in-jiffy-bags-and-ready-to-post SS presents out of Cheesecake's reach and he opened them all on Friday night I'm fairly certain Santa traditionally doesn't pre-chew the presents so I was a little delayed getting replacements. SS Presents Take Two saw them live in the car for the weekend and get wrapped in the post office before being handed over for their journey

Lily, Cheesecake & Mao got their present today, thank you SS

Yama Moo is a Great Dane, Loki is a Border Collie and Budda is a fat Springer x.

When do you need to have orders in by? OH hasn't told me yet how much of his Christmas shopping is being delegated to me so I'm not sure how many I need.

Email sent. Thanks for organising this

Those aren't dog hairs They're cat hairs

I had to have part of my toenail removed after a run in with one of the dogs and this is what it looks like a week later:

Hope Sir H gets on ok at the vets this evening I've been following the updates on the blog and was sending lots of get well thoughts his way but couldn't leave a comment

I used the view new posts button a lot too and I think I found a workaround: On the bottom of the main page, below the last of the forums and above the list of active users there's a small link called "Today's active content" that lists all of the threads updated in the last 24 hours. The only difference between it and view new posts seems to be that it only goes back 24 hours.

You can almost hear him thinking in the second picture. "The female with the camera is first, then the vet and then the male"

I only have the quick pictures I took before he brought them home to the heatlamp. I'll go visit tomorrow to get better pictures of them and the goslings. I think the last one is a different breed to the others - he/she has feathers on its legs and none of the others have that. A surprise chicken
