    God’s dog poem
    When God had made the Earth
    and the sky, the flowers and the trees,
    He then made all the animals
    and all the birds and bees.


    And when his work was finished,
    not one was quite the same.
    He said,’I’ll walk this earth of
    mine and give each one a name.’


    And so he travelled land and
    sea and everywhere he went,
    One little creature followed him
    Until its strength was spent.


    When all was named upon the
    earth and in the sky and sea,
    This little creature said,’Dear
    Lord, there’s not one left for me.’

    The father smiled and softly
    said,’I’ve left you to the end,
    I’ve turned my own name back
    To front and called you ‘dog’,
    my friend.’

    That's really sweet. In light of tonight's posts, there may be a few tears spilled though :(

    Sorry to all who may find themselves, or have found themselves in blondynurse's position :(

    Received my free royal coin today so many thanks to the OP.

    Had a wonderful day scanning everything. Tried loads of old style pantene but still scanning at full price. As i was putting them back where i got them from, there was a new sel for 49p, so kept them. Was either going to get them at agood price or dtd, scanned at 49p through till so still happy.

    On a much happier note, i got a dual portable dvd player for 50p:T:T:T:T

    One with guy on. Hovered around ss until lady was called to one of the tills for a problem, then scanned quick as and popped pennies in slot.

    They are still out there. Sel said £119.

    :T:T:T:T
    Well done you - hope it was at f@@@@@@@dge after they confiscated all my mini eggs off me!!

    Well, the vet agreed that it was time for us to say goodbye to our little Bonnie, and we stayed with her till the end. She looked so peaceful, just asleep, and relaxed. To have put her through investigations, scans, possibly an operation, meds etc would have been cruel at her age. Still we have so many great memories of her over the 12 years she's been with us. We got her from Wood Green animal shelter on 9th July 2000, when she 'chose us' and they said this was her last chance of a new home as she'd been out twice before, but I can honestly say she is the best dog we have ever had in so many ways

    They called her the 'ball dog' at Wood Green as she absolutely loved balls/toys of any kind, but especially football - she could dribble and head the ball with such skill, all the kids were astonished at her. And she loved swimming, even in icey water. When we stayed on the Ring of Kerry about 8 years ago, she had a daily swim in the river at Kenmare, and when we stayed near Tipperary a couple of years, she swam in the river at Cashel, climbing up onto a rock, diving in, swimming round, then out and back onto the rock to dive in again, and again - with a big smile on her face :D Such happy memories and 16 is a good old age

    This pic is of her when she was at her healthiest, top weight of 7.5 Kgs. She was underweight at about 6.5 Kgs when we got her, and 6.6 last week
