Poor little sod. The human race is sickening sometimes. Thank you for beimg there for this little boy when you have enough on your plate already. He must be terrified but Im sure he will appreciate the kindness.

Ive come to the conclusion I'm neither use nor ornament as my gran used to say. I just dont see the point any more of anything
When you are ill its a very vulnerable place to be. But life changes day by day and so will you. Another day another dollar and you will find not only part of who you were a year ago but you will find the path of who you will be in a years time. I understand how you feel but as you have the gift of life make full use of it otherwise you are doing yourself a diservice and miss part of what is out there waiting for you to enjoy.
Steph......what can I say..... Your mother is a lucky woman that you dont remember on a daily basis all that went on before. Please dont forget to give as much charity to yourself as you do your mother. You are a good person.

Had my psychiatrists report - it bares very little resemblence to the words that came out of my mouth.....
Dont worry about it
I have PTSD and my doctor regularly describes someone I dont know.
Its just thier opinion thats all

Probably the wrong section but here goes anyway!
A week ago I was subject to an appalling verbal attack of parking rage which was completely unfounded and I'm still reeling from it. My daughter is having an extension built and a new drive and the builders have been very good and cleaned up the pavement every day and been careful with their cars and vans. I had collected my granddaughter from school, done some shopping and got back to my daughters and because there was a delivery of slates being made drove about 6 doors up from her house and went to park, on the road, in front of the wall and not near anyones driveway. the home owner of the other half of the semi was about to drive off in his van with his wife, the latter of whom has passed the time of day beforeas they have 2 rescue dogs. and my daughter also has rescue dogs and I take mine to her house as well. I smiled as I pulled up and was surprised to get a scowl in retirn and him clearly telling me to move off.
I stopped the engine and he pulled out past me and accelerated up the road - burning rubber as they say, and as I was about to get out realised he was racing back. He pulled up alongside and with the window down was screaming at me to move my car, I was always parking there and he was sick of it and so on. My grandaughter was upset and his wife clearly embarrassed. I kept calm and said I had never parked outside his house before (true), was on a public highway anyway and was not causing a blockage. This drove him even further into his rant. I calmly said he was clearly mistaken as he must know that I don't park there as I have a red Peugot 3008 so he couldn't even be mistaking me for someone else. I'm at my daughters house at least twice a week and have been for the last 10 yearsand park outside their house or one or two doors down if the builders are there.This produced a threat of 'you'd better have it moved before I get back hun' which was the last straw for me as hun is not a word I associate with threats! I told him what I thought and he drove off.It was very unsettling and I still have no idea what prompted it. Maybe I was just in the wrong place at the wrong time!
There seems to be more and more bullying around nowdays. Im tired of hearing its because life is hard because often the rage is about something unimportant or even calculated to intimidate someone who doesnt deserve it.
In the old days communities behaved as a group with manners but now days boundaries are crossed by the internet. Sadly one persons vile behaviour is duplicated in real time and so the replication of malicious behaviour and the inevitable downward spiral of morals and politeness careers towards the cesspit our Grandparents worked hard to keep thier familes from.
The fact you know better puts you way above this scumbag. I know its upsetting to be violated in this way but perhaps your Grandaughter will gain a life long preference for good manners because of it.
God knows the world needs a wake up call.
Chin up Hopefully he will meet someone ruder than him !

Morning. Nice and drizzly here, gets the grass growing at last.
Read back and saw about Ian going home to recuperate. That is wonderful
I missed that about Ian....How absolutely wonderful

Lesley, I'm not sure how you come to this conclusion but I know of several which have come out after far more than 48 hours and it's not hearsay, it's dogs I've been involved with.
I have had a couple back after being underground for 17 days last July. One was not too bad, the other had to go on a drip overnight. It depends if they are stuck, if there is access to moisture, if they are mobile underground and can catch things or aren't too fussy and will eat soil animals. This year a JRT got himself out after a week minus a tooth and a few claws, and a dachs did the same after 5 days.
Most brigades won't come out unless you know which hole, some e.g. the Gower need the RSPCA to call them first, and in an area with hundreds of rabbit holes in the surrounding fields the owners were stuck until they knew which. You may be right, I should have done battle with the RSPCA and fought to get the local brigade out as soon as the terrier man was delayed. Whether I would have succeeded I don't know. From past experience I know that they don't rush out with heat seeking equipment at the drop of a hat.
If you remember, we managed to get the RSPCA and fire brigade out to Smudge, who belonged to the parents of a member of this forum. They brought audio equipment and a camera to drop down holes, but not heat seeking equipment. We only got them out at all because both Smudge's mum and I heard barking underground, otherwise they would not have been allowed to come.
The terrier men from the F&M also think that 2 to 3 weeks with optimum conditions is not unknown, and a week is not unusual.
Suzeanna, thanks for putting the word out via your daughter. It's a very short run for a dog through the woods to her village. And as it happens, the husky's owner has just called round with news of a sighting, Green Lanes in Dronfield. Husky was seen skulking round the burger van.
I remember the Gower one and the performance of phoning. Its a frightening thought of a poor little dog being stuck underground. Its an added advantage of having Giant breeds that I dont have to worry about.

Back from Lincs, but no Charlie. 2 guys from the Fell & Moorland came with their tiny fell terrier, they checked the warren thoroughly and no sign. Even Toby who was so keen has now lost interest. So either Charlie got out and moved which is good, or there has been an earth fall and he is over the Bridge. I am feeling very sad
Owl unless the fire service is called and rapid digging in the first 24 - 48 hours then sadly the result is usually the same. Ive heard amazing stories of 3 weeks underground and safe but they are very few and far between and often hearsay. Its very sad but the owners have to be so much more proactive immediately. The fire brigade has the heat sensors which will pick the dog if he is there as long as he is alive.

It's so good to have a label to hang my 'issues' on, it includes so many of the things that have marred my life up to now (all 52 years of it), so I'm looking forward to being able to learn how to deal with things so what ever is left to me can be enjoyed.
What a great and positive way to look on it. Sounds like you are on the pathway already.

Positive thoughts for Snows mum, It must be such a worry when you have plenty already with her being ill.
Good luck Steph with the SS.Its not coincidence they have these initials. Try changing tack and refuse to have your mum home. I bet they will spend all day persuading you to take her

Also plant potato skins rather than whole potatoes. The eyes that grow are on the skins so you get to eat spuds and still get a free crop.

I like your noo polytunnel
Never thought of chillis, hubby would be delighted but I'd have to watch him - he'd put them in everything
I don't think I could have pots on the ground as dogs wouldn't leave them alone. I really should have trained them better
but I might try carrots inside. Would love to do courgettes, had some last year and loved them. I think I already have lettuce seeds. No thanks to radish, aubergine and beetroot (I can still smell the beetroot being cooked when I was a child 
). I've never tried growing beans before so that's a maybe. Must do spinach also as I'm buying a bag every week for the chooks Try perpetual spinach as it grows and grows till the frost gets it
Thanks for all the suggestions

If there is a decomposing rat it is a health & safety issue, you can't be expected to work in that environment.
My auntie had a very difficult lodger who was a nightmare. Eventually she had a good reason to give him notice, as her son was moving in for a few months. Lodger was furious, and left her a present - a dead rat up the chimney, presumably from the yard where he worked. It was unspeakable.
This is my unexpected labrador Starbuck
At least, he will be officially mine in a week's time if his owner doesn't surface. Not for long though, as he will be signed over to breed rescue. He is starting to put weight back on and get a bit of confidence.Sweet little dog.
Snow It has to be a health issue which your employer cannot ignore. You do seem to get treated as part of the furniture. They need reminding sometimes that you simply sell them some of your time not actually your soul.

Ian had a 5hr operation on his back a few days ago.Apparently they removed a rib to use to repair his back
but fascinating! Anyway op went better than expected and the fantastic news is that Ian has already stood up with the help of nurses Hope missing dog is found soon
Brilliant news and of course the Angel works. We all need to have faith in something good and positive.

Fabulous photos. I love the look of surprise on the dogs faces when they find a lunatic with a camera in there already

Sad news about PC Rathbone to start March off with
-
some people have been spreading it around that ive put my dogs down, not due to old age and medical conditions, but because I was fed up of them and wanted to make way for a new one. if you hear anything, please let me know who they are,id like a word. and if they are saying this about me .....
People usually only start this crap when you are doing the right thing so let them show themselves up with thier spite

suzeanna Thats very sad news
Glad Ian now has a fighting chance

Seeing the comments about advertising signs made me take notice more.
I spotted a very flash and ornate car sign advertising amongst other things Riki and other such healing.
Im presuming its bad spelling and not a version of Reiki ?
-
So sorry it wasnt better news about Ian but at least they think its worth sending him to the UK. Thats promising in itself
-
Well done you. Fortune favours the brave !
-
Sounds like lots of people are having a hard time right now.
I hope Ian improves rapidly, I hope that mums brain bleed is small and temporary and I hope that things start to improve for you Jazz.
I wish sympathy and empathy and good things for all those going through the mill at the moment

A Chi puppy might be the best medicine of all. A new life and a new start.
Ive yet to find an end date on this virus. My neighbour has had it since October. The entire neighbourhood just seems to visit the doctor weekly for medicine to cope with this weeks mutation. Several kids have been in hospital with it. Its awful and debilitating. Ive had enough

Thats a brilliant solution

Has anyone had slapped cheek syndrome ?
