Can you cope with 3 mini pinschers who love to bark and drag you down the road when you are leash walking them (and you can only walk them one at a time because they misbehave so much)

Blimey New Leaf, I would take Bast up on her offer pdq (as soon as current employee retires of course) before someone else snaps her up:j
Great new re NY trip, however selfishly I admit to being somewhat disappointed as your room mate's behaviour would have provided fodder for this thread for days:rotfl:
Is the audit set for tonight or are the (fav swear word) bleeping with your mind again? If it is, stay calm, remember who you are - the woman to stood up to THEM - and you will sail through it I'm quite sure. Now I know that you assured us that you don't have a gold lame cap, however I think that you should invest in one for just such occasions, it would bring you luck. In fact, I am quite sure I have a gold lame bomber jacket in the loft that I bought to wear for a 70s party I attended in the noughties. I don't think I could fashion a cap out of it, but I reckon I could knock up a pretty good shower cap. I would imbibe it with secret magic powers which would protect and empower you, and you could wear it when making or taking difficult telephone calls. I could post it to you and
you would just have to explain to Mrs NL and your lovely housekeeper exactly what it is:rotfl:0 -
