We've had a succession of rescue dogs, some only for a few years because they were too old for most people to re-home. We found the process rather fussy but were happy to go that route at the time.
We lost Ben the year before last to pancreatic cancer, rottweiler cross and as soft as putty. Our next dog though will be a puppy, I'm getting too old for dogs that are hard to train or have too many bad habits from kennels, with the garden coming round it's going to be a labrador puppy next time, trained properly from the start.
Well my 6ft tall, 35 year old, very good looking Italian Masseuse has just left. All you ladies should be very jealous. I feel like a new woman. As an added bonus because he's still training he can't charge. He left with instructions that I should take it easy, relax and drink plenty of fluids for the next 24 hours. I'm following his advice, not sure he meant S. Blanc though.
I have to visit mum in the hospital and do a couple of errands other than that the day is my own, so I'm feeling very lucky today.
Hope your visit to the care home goes well Verdun.
Just popped in for coffee, cloudy but has been pretty nice out. Came in to escape a very heavy shower, hope it doesn't last. Got a dozen hawthorn plants in, just another six dozen to go Nice to be doing a job that seems like gardening for a change, been too much this year that was more like manual labour lol.
I could always ask, he might even speak French, I know some of his family do. Mind you I'm keeping him this side of the channel until at least February. I need something to get me through these dark miserable evenings.
Lyn - that's awful - you need water! Can we do anything to help? Make a phone call for you maybe?
Its back now Dove, thank you, the problem we have is that we are on the end of the line from the ambrosia factory and they are busiest in the morning.
We have our own pumping station now, because we are high, and there was a problem with the pump, they have been and fixed it and serviced it, so sll up and running.
The problem with the landline was to do with the ext, phone, I dont know why, but it wasvaffecting my main one. I disconnected the ex and all was fine, but BT did get right on to checking the line.
Mobile phone signal is always naff, you would think stuck up on top of a hill we would pick it up from anywhere. Anyway, I am now sitting down for the first time tiday with a lovely fruit corner yoghurt.
Dinner on next.
Gardening on the wild, windy west side of Dartmoor.
Been out side till now sorting out plastic gh and shed tidying up ready to put gh down within a week or two slight damage to the plastic from the wind last night - some of the pallets got blown over as well - so was doing a bit of tray washing to made my hand really cold
Trying to store dahlias this year so drying them off
Lesley your seeds have been posted should be with you Monday

Hello all, was extremely windy last night and wet - looks ok today just really cold out
Yvie, does your Italian massage chappie fancy a holiday in France?
