Happylittlegreensquirrel Posted January 29, 2015 Report Share Posted January 29, 2015 day 8 of the mass vaccination drive and we are now at 1631 dogs rabies vaccinated , I am bloody exhausted I have just seen the Imitation Game with Benedict Cumberbatch giving a amazing performance as Alan Turing and its truly an amazing film even with the bit of artistic licence they used , its shocking just how within my parents lifetime that people were criminalised for their sexuality and imprisoned or forced to undergo chemical castration. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owl Posted January 29, 2015 Report Share Posted January 29, 2015 Doglost has repeatedly checked the info about markings with the police but we have not been able to find a single record of a police station putting this warning out. We have a fair bit of snow. very heavy this morning, made brief trip to local shop and windscreen wipers had a job to keep up. Brighter and thawing this afternoon so we had a walk in Clumber Park (at Wispa's insistence) but it's all freezing over now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griff Posted January 29, 2015 Report Share Posted January 29, 2015 awww Jazz, how big are the dogs? could you use a couple of small crates to pop them in with some of those incontinence pads or newspaper..just for whilst you take the other one for a walk,we got a small puppy one off ebay quite cheap and it was easy to put up and it was quite compact when folded up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merledogs Posted January 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 Moaning Yesterday was knackering. We had proper snow yesterday morning but the roads through Warrington didn't seem to have been gritted at all so it was horrendous getting to the hotel. Coming back last night was fine as it had all thawed. It's obviously snowed again overnight and stuck on the lawn but not on the driveway/patio which is just wet. I'm WFHing today but going out in Manchester tonight so am hoping the weather is going to be okay for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yantan Posted January 30, 2015 Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 Again no snow here even though the weather app on my tablet assured me that it was due, was falling and there would be snow later. No! Wrong! Naomi rang to tell me she was desperately behind and still in Cockermouth right around the time she was due to pick Archie up so now she is coming at 11.30ish. She had him up Latrigg again yesterday so he could play in the thick snow at the top of the fell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazz Posted January 30, 2015 Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 I love lamb but have never thought to get it minced. it was £2 for 250g, loads in the slow cooker, that' with potatoes and veg has done 3 meals not bad and sooo nice. ill be getting that again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yantan Posted January 30, 2015 Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 I was buying minced lamb to make spicy lamb burgers but just found there was waaaaay to much fat in it. I hope the one you got turns out a lot leaner Jazz. The Archibald has left the building. Naomi is taking him up Walla Crag which is one of his favourite walks so his tail will be going at double speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merledogs Posted January 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 I've been to the doctor about the possibility that I'm peri-menopausal. I've got to go to the nurse to get some blood tests done. She's given me some sleeping pills because I keep waking at stupid o'clock (3am this morning). I'm not going to be taking them because apparently they are addictive. Going out in Manchester tonight for a late birthday do with some people from work. Not looking forward to it but I'm sure I'll enjoy myself once I'm out (if I manage to keep awake). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzeanna Posted January 30, 2015 Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 Chesterfield really was hammered by the snow yesterday, the whole town was gridlocked...it took my OH two and a half hours to drive home, a journey that should have taken 15 minutes! Lots of people had to give up and leave their cars and walk. It's thawing on the main roads on our estate, but the side roads are very slippery. I'm hoping to make it to the hospital this afternoon for my mammogram, assuming the council gritters have cleared the road. A hospital at the top of a hill, with a busy A&E department, and yesterday Hady Hill (you'll know it Owl) was closed because of the snow. How they expected ambulances to manage I don't know.
