Morning all, heavy snow here last night, we got caught out in it, then as we were out daughter called to see if we could pick her and a couple of friends up to take them home as they were stranded , good job we were in the 4x4

Hope everyone is OK today, dogs and their owners

If you have to go out , stay safe, the roads are lethal round here.

P.S.........

at calling your dog Piglet as a nick name I can imagine it but surely it can't of been its real name can it

My friends chihuahua is called "Piglet"

I'm really worried that this is going to keep happening - he can't keep having it re-done every month. He managed his breakfast and drank milk through a straw so I'll see how he gets on today.

Loki is surprisingly quiet today. I will take him out and hope we don't both go flying - mind you it's melting! Yay!

Have a lovely day everyone.

Morning Linda sorry to hear about Michael lets hope he can hold out till Monday.

Davie and his friend had a sleepover last night, they were quite good but my goodness they were up early today. Hoping they will go out later and I can get some more sleep.

Today is just some housework then some study. I'm a wee bit behind with empire and need to catch up. So kind of relaxing day no running around involved. I'll take Davie swimming tomorrow. Today though I refuse to rush to get out of bed.
Morning Lorraine I remember the sleep well, late to sleep early to rise us needing matchsticks.
Enjoy your lazy day.

Luke got us all up at 7am by stamping to the bathroom which started the dogs howling for brekkie So I asked him to sort them been as he woke them which in turn woke us all up.

Had to de ice my car,we had heavy rain last night and it froze during the night so it was icy this morning,all the snow has nearly gone

Popped to Tesco for my veggies and bits I needed,got back and Tom had sorted the kitchen out for me and had a bath

Currently have a load of washing on and hopefully going to peg it out later.

Have a good day all x
Morning Sal Naughty Luke.
Glad to hear Tom has been helpful. Hows OH today ?

Nothing much to report, we were going to lunch with our son and daughter in law but d-i-l has injured her foot and has to stay off it until Monday when they will xray it So I have told her to do just that and we will come another day.
Have a good Saturday everyone.
Morning Jenny we have sun too and its nice to see it.
Sorry to hear about your DIL I hope the foot is better soon.

Morning Pat. The warmth sounds lovely and sunbathing on the balcony.

O/H is doing ok,still pretty much immobile and is still struggling with these crutches,he is scared he's going to fall
He didn't have a great night last night and he's really worried not only about the break but the damage done to his knee,but I have told him not to worry until he has seen the consultant on Thursday and take it from there.

He's getting pretty fed up of been stuck in the house but there isn't much he can do about it

Thanks for asking

Oh dear it isn't going to get better quick is it due to how long it was left before it was seen.
Being in pain all the time though is no fun and worrying it might not be the same again.
Hopefully Thursday will be more positive.

Come across a few strange names in my time, but I think the weirdest was Henry. Not really because the dog was called Henry, but surname was Cooper which, in itself isn't all that weird, but then to call your daughter Minie I thought was a bit thoughtless as that kid is bound to grow up with a lot of ribbing from her friends.

A lady used to come to agility training with a sweet little collie bitc h called Dave, but my favourite had to be the dog I was seeing on a one-to-one and when the owner asked if she could bring Raymond along with her the following week, I encouraged her saying all the family should be involved in training. Raymond turned out to be a JRT.

I'm not good with names

"Some people do have strange ideas on names don't they. I always try to imagine them out and about and calling their dog to them. You'd think, 'here Piggy, Piggy' would have been enough to put them off that particular name wouldn't you "

My first Siamese was rehomed from a family. He had a great bend in his tail so the child in the family had called him.... Kinky..What can one do! His pedigree name was Beta S'u Vana thankfully..
