lol! re puppy! At one time we had three in the house awaiting adoption. Three JRTs... As soon as I sat down when I came in, there were literally in my face, licking..

Great idea re the island. I say that often about the youth here; we have Great Blasket which would be perfect. Sorry re the photos but given what the Gardai find in the collections of paedophiles i think it is wise. These creeps are attracted to this kind of event. You can take photos at home...

Or you could swap them for round ones, that's what we had to do many years ago when faced with similar problem

Good to be home.. all critters fed etc.... even me partly fed. I am at the end of the food queue of course.. A highly successful and enjoyable day... first time out since the floods and the land is half drowned. Chatted with the man at the big hardware where I get the coal and one of the roads here opened mid morning Sunday, too late to be of any real use to me and from Killarney to Tralee was bad too. The Christmas shopping orgy and price war are in full glorious swing! Tesco and Aldi are literally next door to each other; I refused to buy them at tesco at E1.19. In aldi they were 49 cents...the big containers of Roses and Celebrations etc are finally down to E5 so I have stocked up well... and more than usual in the reduced counters i rely on... too tired to put it all away..Kind ladies bought me coffee and cake at Muckross....even collected my regular prescription. We now have a weather warning for the weekend; heavy rain and flooding. Heartbreaking and the land is heavy and saturated already. Maybe even snow. Still uncertain which areas are going to be hit. Dreading if I have to miss the last two Fairs. We can only wait now and I have two clear days here. Met so many lovely people today too..Love Killarney. Oh got tree lights. One of the ladies told me re Pennys and a shop nearby that have them very cheap .... Great! E1.49 for a set of lights..Everything there is E1.49.. will go there again!

Oh great idea! Dog here is fine with doors but one of my cats is adept at opening windows...Can you imagine the dogs face when he sees the round knobs!

I'll look that one up on Google maps tonight, this was discussed about five years ago on Dogsey and I made a similar suggestion only to be told that the law says a convict must only go to jail in his (or her) home country, so English prisoners can't be jailed in Scotland, Northern Ireland prisoners can't be jailed in English prisons etc. etc.

Something to do with the relatives having too far to travel. I just gave up at that point

Now that is very tempting Rosebud

Ok here is a peek at my favourite star! Don't the trainers go well with the outfit?

Just had to look it up even more perfect would be Inishnabro and for the real nutters how about Tearaght Island I imagine the wind and rain would really rattle through the cells on that place

Well we have PLENTY of candidates here anyway! TWO of our TDs ( MPs) have been in jail this week for non payment of fines after scaling fences at Shannon airport protesting re US planes refuelling there. Great Blasket would be ideal for them! They both boast they intend to do so again.. Never heard of that law though. Are they sure of that? Surely a person convicted here in Ireland even if from the UK? Oh Lord; new weather warning out for Saturday.. deluges and flooding. Off to sleep as need extra codeine; dratted raynauds getting its revenge for the walking I did today.. Well it was worth it! Two cats are abed with me too.. bliss! Have a wonderful evening..anyone with a spare cake...thanks! But the choc cake they bought me was a HUGE portion so I have half of that to finish..
