    Wheezy, sometimes dogs can be un-nerved by strange movements. My lot are not very good with children, they aren't used to their sudden moves.

    Fair enough. I've had a bad day. My colleague landed me in it by accident I think. It'll cost me an extra 2 weeks in the office as a result.

    Does that mean you have to return to work after Christmas?

    What happened? you posted the other day that work had dried up andyou were browsing, what do they want you to do in the extra two weeks?

    unsurprised you are cheesed off seems a very normal response to me.

    Mine like children.

    Big dog just loves babies. Which borrowed toddler was borrowed babie she used to patrol around him. Now he's a proper kid she's good with him, but less interested. Kiwi loves kids, he likes running and playing balls and being chased and is quite happy to go off with out me into the field with kids. ( less closely but still supervised. supervised)Here its been all boys.

    Dog dog I don't ever relax so much about. But she does like kids a lot, she likes gentle ones. Thinking about it, and who she's interacted with I think she's mainly homophobic. Its just horrid. I don't know what it is. Its not like fir isn't kinda camp sometimes. So its not a camp thing. And she likes one of my gay friends. I dunno. She's just weird. The one she hates is probably one of the loveliest people on earth. He's the person that if I had kids I would seriously consider asking him to let us put him down as the 'if something happens to me will you have them' person, and he'd be a better more thoughtful parent than me. Of course, he's also a raving pinko, ( politically before anyone raves at me for homophobia) but nobody is perfect. :)

    I don't suppose anyone wants a gas fired Rayburn? It was in perfect working order until we turned it off two weeks ago. It doesn't go with the new home owners space age kitchen. :)

    Well I don't have earnings that would suit it perfectly. I have paler green earrings, but I don't know if they make matching earings, and that's how I'd want to wear it now. I do like it.

    The rule is, if you buy it for mater you get it back when she kicks the bucket.:eek: ( she's very frank about these things, I get it from her:D. So one is encouraged to buy things one likes and would wear when older :rotfl:. Likewise any thing blue stoned goes to the other side, anything green stones to me.

    But if it doesn't fit her I think I'll keep rather than return.

    Have you got to know any of the neighbours that could help off-load the filing cabinet?

    I think that is why I was successful as a forkie, I could read and write - put me some way ahead of the competition.

    According to OH, any forkie who can do a day's work without being stoned is at a distinct advantage. The ability to read "cctv in use" and understand that this means you could be recorded taking drugs then driving your truck around a warehouse full of glass bottles in a wayward fashion is advantageous. Also to know that "I wasn't drink driving, only took me drugs" is not an acceptable defence.

    List it on Ebay, I'm sure someone abroad would buy it if they could get their paypal to work. Seriously people travel miles to collect decent stuff.

    Ooo thanks for that bugslet! :T One of the things I was dreading doing was moving my filing cabinet from old home. With the drawers out it'll be so much easier.

    :eek::eek::eek: I must stop telling people I used to be a forkie, heavens knows what they think of me!

    You are welcome maggie - I find youtube useful for all sorts of minor tasks like that.
