Miss P, hugs to you and your family, I am so sorry to read your sad news.
Losing pets is an unfortunate inevitability which comes with being an animal lover and yes, the fact that you love them so much makes it all the more difficult when they go. Try and focus on the good things and the lovely life your parent's dog had and the joy he brought to you all - THAT's what makes owning pets worthwhile and wonderful (speaking as a cat owner, where our cats are definitely "top dog"!).
Jo - Giraffe's are my most FAVOURITE animals. Ooohhh I just love 'em!
Thanks for all your helpful words following my disastrous Tuesday evening drinking binge by the way. You lot always make me feel better:A
Hugs,
Caz

V. V. pee'ed off at the moment.
Somebody knocked on the door this morning at 7.30am very loudly and didn't give OH time to answer, woke him up (not me though) and by the time he got to the door he was running off down the street. OH recognised him as being one of the rubbish men. Another bang at the door at 9.30am (I was up this time!), but as I wasn't dressed grabbed some clothes and again he was off before I had a chance to get there, saw him running off down the road. It's bin day today so half hour later when he was coming down the road I collared him. He apologised and said he was after the neighbours fish tank that was in her garden and thought it might belong to me.
He's just turned up again and taken the fish tank. He was with an older bloke (looked like his dad). They put the tank in the car, he took a stella can out of the door and put it on the road, opened another one and started drinking from it, 'dad' drove off, over the beer can on the roadHE'S A RUBBISH MAN!!!! :mad: I feel like ringing the council (blimey I sound like my mum :rotfl:)

Jo,
I just clicked on your jukebox and my internet connection crashed. Probably coz it had to go so far back into the archives for my year of birth that it couldn't handle it.:o
As you can see I am VERY busy working . Boss is on holiday;)
