I know this sounds a bit alarmist...but it feels a bit like snow here, not earlier it didn't, but were it to snow later I'd not be too surprised at all. Temperatures have dropped a lot this afternoon. Hmmm.

Thinki might turn dog heater up tonight!

CK, we are still waiting to find out the name/breed/age of the pup - it's urgent.

There was also quite an interest in lady CK's nail polish as well!

Hahaha, he's a Lab Retriever called Lasha, and is 3 weeks old.

Nail polish is MAC, and yes, nails are fake :eek:

Awww, three weeks - I take it he isn't home with you yet. I hate the waiting bit before they get there - and widdle on your floor/keep you up all night/chew modem cables.

He will be a chewer of the highest order:eek:

My posh alert is this week's greedy, unnecessary, treats ..... things that make me go fat

I went into Lidl and got a little bag of their Xmas choc barrels, a bag of their Peanut-Choco bars and 3 mini blackcurrant cheesecakes. So there went a posh alert £3.18 of totally unnecessary, indulgent and greedy buys

For proper food I got some 22p Tesco pittas, cheapest Lidl spuds, cheapest Lidl mature cheddar, cheap Lidl Weetabix and a bag of sugar (for the weetabix). So about £7 on "real food".

In my day a dog heater was when you got the Labrador to sit on your lap so that it kept you warm and you could avoid putting heating on for an extra couple of days. More recently and sans dog, I have used DH for same purpose. The dog never complained when I used it as a foot warmer though.

We don't have Ny heating remember. The dogs have an electric heater which is the main source of heat for the whole house. By keeping 'their room' warm I'm also keeping part of the house warm.

We had kennel dogs too, In the past, but they had heat lamps.

This is of course one of the main purposes of pets

I know how cold it really is, as compared to whole cold I feel, by where on the bed the cats sleep....tonight I should think they'll be under the duvet as soon as I get in bed.
