Your prerogative, but I found it really interesting. Try to preserve as much as you can.

I found it interesting that 5 and 6 were so different, but I guess that you can make any dog neurotic if you don't know what you are doing. (Not you personally, I hasten to add!)

We had a five and six too. I loved him. He was fab. My parents hated him, he was extremely protective of me to the point he would not tolerate me being disciplined. He is why I am pushy and don't have many limits I guess. He died when I was about three in a car accident when he was being taken care of my some one else. The horrific thing is, despite serious spinal damage the person was too worried to put him to sleep or to tell us where we were so he was kept alive for two days till we returned. I remember vividly going straight to the vets and seeing him drag himself across the floor, his bedding coming too, and my dad explaining why we could not let him stay in that state then I hugged him and my dad and I stayed with him till he slept his head in my lap and me wailing. ( not fair on him) My mother had to leave.

A very happy Christmas to everyone, and very good wishes for an excellent new year.

That's so sad lir:(. I find DPs very protective and extremely loyal. I think that's why they are so easy to train to be bad and viscious, I feel they will do anything to protect their (human) pack. That's the sad thing with rotties (my extended family had them) and staffies (other than the fact they are ugly), they are extremely loving and loyal and that can be focused the wrong way. That's imo of course, which is just that of a lay person and not as professional attuned as yours.

However Mr T Hatfield refused to sell me one of the 49 quid tablets as they are a boxing day special even though apparently they are being sold in Boreham Wood, Watford and Hemel T's today

What are the 49 quid tablets michaels? If I can pick up one that cheap I may just get one for the holidays.

The TImes have an offer where you subscribe to their digital package and get a nexus 7" tablet for £50.

Don't know if that is better or worse deal.

I do beleive I just heard reindeer on the roof.

Merry Christmas to one and all from a rather tired Michaels and his very over-excited family.

Special greetings to Lydia's kids and especially her DD who we all hope is feeling better for the big day.
