    Someone who has the time to be with him all day is going to get a great dog :T

    I don't doubt that they will, he is such a loving dog, he's just happy to have you there. Even when he gets told off all he wants to do is make it better but goes about it like a bull in a china shop :rotfl:
    We've been working on some basic training but he thinks most commands are 'hi 5!' and looks so pleased with himself. He thinks that 'paw' follows 'sit' every time so we're working on that by using hand gestures as well for sit, stay, leave it. Leave it is his best one because he knows he's getting food of some sort at the end :rotfl:

    I'm just glad it's not just me it happens to! When I get in to find them on the sofa he runs to me wagging his tail with the most stupid look on his face, he knows I'm cross with him but thinks that if he wags his tail so hard that I'll know he's happy and not get angry with him. I can hear his tail whacking on the sitting room door as soon as I open the front one :rotfl:
    The big puppy dog eyes also help him in his case, how can I shout at something so cute. He has me shouting and laughing at the same time! I can't and won't ever win.

    It's a long time since we had a dog but I remember so well these situations. Perhaps it's time to get another dog now that I'm at home all day.
    Awaiting a new sig

    He sounds like a daft pup :D maybe he has not grown up yet.
    Anyway what time you up in the morning :eek:
    Will see you here tomorrow to swap dog stories yes :D
    Edit: or should I say later on today :eek:

    I'm up at 7ish, at home most of the day apart from doing school runs then out to 'work' at 6pm which is going to be fun :cool: Big talk with the kids/teenagers as why it isn't on to film someone getting the carp kicked out of them and then MSMing it to everyone in school and causing said lads to have the same thing happen in school. They've cost themselves a great trip out over it :(

    Don't bother trying to smuggle it - your luggage/bags get x-rayed when boarding and bottles, cans etc are usually confiscated. Far better imo is to purchase a soft drinks package. They usually have alcoholic/soft packages to suit most people and tbh it means that you don't have to think twice about the cost etc leaving you free of the worry that you gonna get lumbered with a big bill. HTH and hope you enjoy the cruise.
    ive took a bottle of vodka many times in my case. and carried a 8 pack of coke through customs putting it in carrier bag on the xray belt.
