houndzrus Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 Morning I hope Wispa, Timmy and Mouse feel better soon. I just had a bit of a panic. I updated Jack's Facebook page with the comment "Just had my first cuddle of the day, so now it's time for a nap" Trouble was, for some reason, the iphone updated it on MY status and I couldn't delete it!! A quick run downstairs to the laptop ensued and I deleted it. I could imagine the comments I would get if I hadn't noticed! RMF: Strictly starts tonight 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merledogs Posted September 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 (edited) I know I am v excited, although I just know Fern is going to get on my baps Had a lovely walk - went to see the girls (cows) instead of the boys (bullocks). They aren't quite as brave. Mostly baby cows who are very inquisitive and sooooo sweet I did get some pics on my phone so will download them later.

Oops I wouldn't have commented (much) honestly RMF: Marge Simpson is just the nicest person on the planet. The world would be a much worse place without her and people like her That's all I'm saying.

griff Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 i hope wispa and timmy are soon better...poorly dogs are not fun! Jazz, glad to hear you have found someone for mouse. Merledogs i agree Marge simpson is a luffly lady! been to the undertakers and settled the bill for my nans funeral.... they weren't open but gary (one of the directors) was decorating and came down and opened up for us, they did a brilliant job of taking care of my nan and were lovely people to deal with. now we just need to try and finalize what happens with the headstone so dads family can't wriggle out of any money that will need paying on that..... although they will have a damn good try (except for his little sister) i can't believe i have the misfortune to be related to such a bunch of skanky horrible people! they haven't paid a penny towards her funeral, not made a donation to the hospice that took care of her and are currently removing things from her flat which most of the family had agreed should be left to the charity who own the flat, i am so glad that i have been brought up properly and taught to appreciate the kindness people show you and repay that kindness if you can..... i might be a bit of a chav but i am a chav with gratitude! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
houndzrus Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 Alex. Well done Griff, at least you and your family can hold your heads high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merledogs Posted September 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 Wot Marge said griff I have had a lovely day - walked the dogs, mowed the lawn, moved some plants around, had a nap (and a nice dream for once). I've fed the cats, dogs and birds, who are now flitting around the garden and am about to go and have a bath and then make some tea (rigatoni with wild mushroom and marsala sauce, washed down with a spritzer or two), then settle down for the night's viewing, which comprises Total Wipeout, Strictly, Dr Who, X Factor, Casualty and possibly a bit of Jonathan Ross depending on who he has on (can't stand the bloke personally but he does have some good guests). Guess that's my evening planned! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loo Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 Hey Griff, it's what they say - you can choose your friends but you can't choose your family!! x (although I have to say I have been very lucky on both counts 'cepting for certain x-in-laws but they are of no consequence anymore!!) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griff Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 Merledogs i am with you....jonathan ross gets right up my nose! i am not amused with myself at all...managed to drop a chicken into the pan it had cooked in so all the fat/juices sprayed up my favourite hoody, i am hoping that as i chucked it in the wash immediately it will come out. you are all right unfortunately we can't choose our families..... i have decided my decision 22 years ago was the right one and will have nothing more to do with them except my aunty, my fur family are a lot better than my blood relatives..... even if dex cat decides to bite and scratch me! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snow Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 ((hugs)) Griff unfortunately or perhaps fortunately death can bring out both the best and worst in people, since mum died I have experienced both so have a real good idea of what you are dealing with, concentrate on the good ones and stuff the bad ones - thats what I'm doing. My labrynthitis flared up today worst one for a long long while, managed to bump into every single wall and door on my way to the loo this morning and then threw up antihistamine has now kicked in a bit so as long as I concentrate (not easy with labrynthitis) then I am no longer feeling like I'm on a boat in a storm, hopefully this will pass fairly quickly. Didn't stop me from going to PC World and buying myself my new super dooper net machine - I have yet to get it out of its box and connect it up as my new desk doesn't arrive for a few days yet though I don't know if I can resist temptation for that long lol we'll see....

owl Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 Not surprised you are glad to see the back of that lot, griff. Have fun with new computer, snow. Looks like I have found the cause of Wispa's upset tum. She has been nicking the birds' fat balls. Seems that some birds can pull them out of the top of the holder and then they drop them on the ground. She gave herself away by hiding one in my bed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merledogs Posted September 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 Moaning Owl - at a guess, could it be the magpies? Snow - hope your Labrynthitis clears up soon Griff - there are only two family members I like and one is in Maesteg and the other one is in New Zealand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

houndzrus Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 (edited) Morning all I woke up early as usual, so have been using the time to make bread, (Dough currently rising), and salmon and brocolli quiche. I am attempting a new boiled fruit cake recipe later, I am awaiting delivery of these two paintings, done by a very talented person called Julian Wheat, who is on a Lab forum. He is so, so talented! First Cherry and Spike and Jack I can'rt express how pleased I am, even though I don't have the originals yet. Next job will be finding a framer.
