    Gorgeous dogs mate with the most wonderful temperament and highly trainable. We were lucky as when we still worked my wife worked a lot from home and I was allowed to take the dog to work....like me though he didnt much like the going to work days <laugh>

    I've never heard of them they really are stunning. I hope you get to pick him/her up soon mate. I know you said in your earlier post it isn't a major thing but a dog gets a new home and you and the missus get some happiness. And in what has been a particularly ****ty year for yourself, losing your father and your dog any joy can be considered major.

    Good luck stick. Very therapeutic, couldn't be without one and I know what it's like to lose one. Heart breaking

    There's been some sort of mix up with the transportation of Stick's dog. This little fella arrived on his door step.

    Stick has complained no end. The breeder has agreed to come to the party and has sent him a second dog as a two for one deal. Stick's wife is over the moon, but he's really pissed.

    The dog doesn't seem to care too much about it at all. As long as the weed is free, he's happy.

    Just imagine getting pulled and having to say i'm going to see a man about a dog. It would be difficult not to laugh but then a €€€€ fine would soon wipe the happy face away. Best o luck Stick

    I loved the first 2 series Reebs but kind of lost interest in series 3. Somehow I liked them as underdogs but in series 3 I just got the feeling they'd made it so what's left to do? My dad loved all the series so maybe I have missed out, might give it another go.

    I thought it tails off too mate. Its hard to keep the standard of writing up at the same level for so long. Still watch it but not as good as early on. Breaking Bad I didn't enjoy. Gave up something like 5 episodes from the end. Might revisit it at some point and give it another go

    This is much more like it from Pie - excellent assessment of the US Presidential Election <applause>

    Well, to each his own, I find him a crass vulgar boor, Jonathan Pie that is. He is telling me bugger all that's new. Democracy has reached the depths. I often think of the millions who lost their lives in WW2, and WW1 too for that matter. I wonder what they're thinking up there right now? Probably something like: "Why the hell did we bother?". :emoticon-0101-sadsm

    I sometimes wonder what the older generations would think of all this political correctness? And all the snowflakes....:emoticon-0102-bigsm

    <laugh> Not a lot! Was a bit harsh with this Pie fellow, but he just gets my goat. As for Farage, what a **** twat! Well, I guess Blair did the same thing supporting George Bush, so Farage is not the first one, to be fair.
