    He is gorgeous. Is he local?

    Well done on your massive overpayments, I really don't know how you do it!

    Shame you missed the torch, I went to see it in Northampton, was great. Really good atmosphere, despite the rain! The route is strange though, took a week to get from Northampton to Milton Keynes, going all over the place in between. Doesn't seem to be logical at all!

    He is in Tamworth so about 90 mins, but only half hour away from where my family are so can keep popping in to see him when i am over that way :)

    The kids said the torch was good.

    OPs are done by my ebay sale :) and thrifty stuff lol

    'IF' we do get him, then I will ask if I can have an earlier than planned unpaid week off work, so will have 3.5 weeks off with him and then he will be 12 weeks once kids are back at school and we'll be able to go out on small walks by then.

    puppy looks so cute. We want one but no-where near ready financially to get one yet.

    Well done on all your OPments. It doesn't seem like that long ago we were evenly matched in figures but you have really stormed ahead.

    Not very MSE but more family friendly, we went to see the puppy as mentioned above and we fell in love with him and will be collecting him in 3 weeks. I had enough money saved for me to afford to have an extra week off work unpaid :)

    We have called him Scooter :D He's a mini labradoodle.

    Oh and OP'd another £100 today, wont have anymore for the month as we are on hols next week and have no ebay stuff on then.
