    We want pictures!! The dog is in the shed so you really have no excuse now as they have all gone home.

    If you cannot produce pictures then you are lying....!! Plus we want pictures of the empty pond.

    I am off to bed now and will pop in and see the pics tomorrow morning. If they exist of course.... but most of us know they don't.

    look, what can i say the dog didnt fit!

    I will try and take a pic in the am of the pond or what was the pond. though you cant see much as it looks like a pile of rubble and what was the pond liner torn to shreads.

    Is that supposed to be the pond? How would a dog not fit in there?

    i didnt really look. all i saw was the fur poking out the top of the boot and ironically a tesco bag for life over its head.

    Post number 21 holds the clue. It's a shaggy dog story.

    My niece has just rung me. She works at an estate agents and has just had an irate buyer on the phone. They are withdrawing their offer on 22 Acacia Avenue because the overnight rain has caused half the garden to subside !
    Instead of a beautiful garden and fish pond, which is what they found most attractive about the property, the garden is now mostly a very large hole.
    They are hysterical anyway because their dog has been missing all night.
    .................:)....I'm smiling because I have no idea what's going on ...:)
