  • He said that as he knew I spent all but £2 of the ones we already have on an English Heritage membership and pizza express vouchers the other night. She isn't going to give me the dog for £2, or £6 in deals. :rotfl:

    Is it wrong to hope no-one wants the one i want in the hope she might let me have it. :o There are 3 chocolate brown ones, but i like the black and white one that just seems to have more personality and intelligence to me. I have been avoiding going to see them a bit, as i know if i spend too much time there i will fall in love, and then i will be sneaking it home. I own a large handbag, and the cat has already pooped on it, so I know it washes well. :rotfl:
  • I have a large washable kipling bag if you need one!:rotfl:

  • I think I can hear the pitter patter of very tiny feet, arriving at my house around the 4th of October. (I have my own large washable kipling bag, aka my nappy bag. More than big enough to carry the little fella in.

    Now what shall I call him?
  • OMG really? Yeh, I'm so excited for you. George, I don't know why (but there probably won't many others out there called George!!)

  • Naughty doogys insurance is due up, went on TCB last night and saw that MORETHAN were offering £55.55 cashback on any new pet policy, offer due to expire yesterday. Got a quote for £99, took it immediatly as the cover appears as good as we have now, cashback has tracked already so £43.45 for a years insurance makes me a VERY happy bunny!:D

  • We may need to take out a second insurance soon, fingers crossed. We have a visit to a rescue dog tomorrow evening, about the same size as our naughty monster, another dolly mixture with terrier in:rotfl:

    If the two dogs get on and he likes us we will have to have a home check before we are allowed to take him on.

    I have done 3 mystery shops today, hoovered round (just incase the home checker rings at the last minute asking to see us:rotfl:) Although I think he/she will probably be more concerned with our fencing and garden than cleanliness....however you never know!

    PS. Cha, is your mother doing a home check on you:rotfl:
