    Copper has already ingested too much and is completely hyperactive and anxious. He needs to be kept in overnight, vomiting is to be induced and then he will be kept on a drip overnight and given charcoal....

    So i came home without him and cried like a big baby all the way home.

    Im off to phone them and see how he is...

    Then I will start flying and keep myself busy x
    Jo Big hug for you, and healing vibes on the way for Copper.
    Try not to worry; I know easier said than done.

    I'm losing the will to live now - the conservatory looks great but I've still got stuff everywhere else and everywhere else was tidy and now isn't. I don't really know where to put the stuff though - that's obviously why it had been chucked in the conservatory.

    Sorry for missing yesterday, short story (bearing in mind the children are around this week) AF arrived, toilet, menopause, emergency trip to supermarket for even more items, toilet, washing, washing machine, nightmare. You get the drift, and before you all start nagging, I've been before xmas to the dr and phoned him today. There is a long version but it is even worse!! enough said,.

    Piggers you have a pm.

    I hope all the doggies are recovering from the choccies.

    No flying done what so ever, I'm just not capable at the moment, except for the WM, even that trip to it was bad............................................FTMI.....................

    Hugs to all, hi to the newbies................normal service in a day or so, I hope.
