That people can transmit sick building syndrome to people who haven't spent time in the building themselves?

More than likely kids pick up bugs and some of the time it makes them quite ill. The more people you know, the greater the chance that you will know someone who has an ill child.

That's true. It doesn't take much to start a health scare. The flesh-eating bug was so rare a typical doctor's practise wouldn't encounter it but a large regional hospital might get a small number a year. So one year if you get 5 in the same hospital instead of say 2, it looks like the start of an epidemic, exspeciaaly as it's so rare it's unfamilar and therefore more fearsomw.

It hit a "sweet spot" between being really rare and unusual and also just common enough to start to look worrying.:o

I weighed curly dog today and in looks like his adult size prediction ATM is forty percent smaller than he should be:(. Midget.

Still, so long as he is healthy I don't really mind. I wish he liked eating more. He is not skinny, but I wouldn't 't mind him chubbier.

I will Weigh him again at the vets because the scales are more accurate than trying to get him to stand on a breadboard on my kitchen scales.

We need pictures.
Normal small pet weighing is to weigh yourself, then hold curly dog and weigh both of you together. The difference is curly dog. Do not do this though if it means you have to stand on the breadboard on the kitchen scales. I am sure that is not good for elf and safety.

Yeah, that's how we weigh the cats, (human cpsclaes not on the bread board o the kitchen scales) but he has hit the 'I don't want a carry' stage and wriggles, so would be as bad tbh.


He also takes great delight in cocking his head then turning and running the other way when I call him:rotfl:

Pink whistley cat is resigning herself to him now, Right now he is asleep on my left foot, and she came in, built a 'screen' by dragging my jacket on to my lap so she doesn't have to look at him, and is sitting on mups right thigh.

I want a shower but am too soft to move either of them,:rotfl:

DD has just come back from a hack. At the yard she exchanged pleasantries with another rider who she is on nodding terms with.

DD "hello. Good Ride?" expecting a yes fine thank you response.

Response was " Not really as Horse was surrounded by 'bad people' " DD was alarmed and concerned but the rider went on to tell her in some detail that they were from the spirit world and that she had shouted at them and banished them. It turns out she has special gifts and powers.

Maybe, however my DD is sceptical and has decided she is as mad as a box of frogs.

Ha ha ... that's what you get when you speak to people. Top tip: avoid people.

Spirit, (haha, we're you around the horse with your user name?) seems harder and harder to avoid with horses........

I don't mind so much as I am an adult but I would be concerned if I were on a yard with kids, or impresionble young adults, or vulnerable adults...by a lot of the horse people I meet. Dh keeps telling me to join riding club here, but I am trying to AVOID horse people!

Mad as a box of frogs! Oh. My. Lord. I love that one and will steal it and use it shamelessly.

Lydia, makeup everyday? I am seriously impressed. Months ago, I had one of those makeovers in HoF and spent a fortune on foundation which i was promised was perfect for me. It is still in the bag and still lying on the back seat of the car where I flung it.
