mummyyof5 - that must be sooooo scary, good job you're quick thinking and level headed!
Hope LO's feeling better soon.
Right I dont have a froggy list but I have things that are deffo frogs. So I've done the ones that have been hanging over me a bit.
I called the vet for the six month check up... that's 3 months late! (We pay monthly pet club so it covers the injections, wormers, flea stuff and a 6 month check up) She wasnt too mean to meall three woofits in for check and wormer in 2 weeks time.
And then I called the council about discount leisure centre cards there, I didnt know the status and should have sent them a letter but forgot some time ago. But thats all sorted too.

Wiltshire huskies is looking for volunteers for "meet the huskies" beginning of next month. I'm trying to decide if it'll be too hot for our babies. (And if MiL will look after the beagle monster) Never done anything like that before, but I feel like I should do - Any of you guys ever done any fund-raising thing like that? I'm not sure I could talk to people, but then again the dogs are my fave subject :rotfl::rotfl: (you might have noticed :rotfl:)
