Happy Birthday to your little one Starnac :j:j:j

We always had carpet picnic tea at home on Sunday's, it was a real treat not to have to sit at the table and one of the few things my Dad joined in.

I can't tell you how amazing Rodders is! In three nights we have had 20 minutes total of whinging before he settles down, he is fantastic in the car, paper trained (except when too excited playing) and is a real Mummy's boy. Shook a little at the vets but not even a whimper when they took his temperature or gave him his jabs.

The only real problem is he is a bit scared of different surfaces and it took him a while to come in to the kitchen (where his favourite place is curled up between my feet).

Took him in to the garden this morning for the first time and he loved playing on the grass and even pooped

This is the photo my niece took last night when she came to meet her new cousin


Sorry, I am turning in to a puppy bore!

Oh he's so cute!

Glad the cordial is still going down well Pippi, thought we'd finished our stocks but found a bottle with some of last year's in - a fine vintage :rotfl:

Red, oh does it last that long

Just made a £100 pad to captain - trying to keep battering that card.

strawbs you can tuck them in somewhere now and let them get through the winter - or I can coddle them for you and post them in the spring - when you can put them where you want them!

I'm glad she's having a great day carpet picnics rock.

best let you coddle them than me. more chance of them making it through winter

how long is Mr F with you this time??

Maty, Rodders is sooooo cute! Glad he is becoming toilet trained so quickly, well done!! :T

Pippi...if you have loads of strawbs, then I wouldn't mind a few winging down my way. I am happy to have them before the winter...they can live in the greenhouse if I can't/don't get them in the ground.

Took DS2 back to fracture clinic this morning...and the cast is off, after only two weeks!!! It turns out the scaphoid bone wasn't broken, and the fractured wrist is healing nicely. So he has a sort of velcro wrist support thingy he's to wear for a week and he can start rugby training in two weeks time :eek::eek: Methinks that is asking for trouble...but I am "only" his mum!! He is ecstatic ofcourse...boys!!

Need to get more tidying up done today, have a friend visiting tomorrow, so need to make it a bit more presentable . Also want to get some more sewing done befoer tea, as I am off out to my quilting group tonight...a busy day!!!

Enjoy the rest of today, see you tomorrow sometime x

To be fair, his breeder has a LOT to do with this. She started them on paper which I have carried on. Just need to move him from paper to outside now
