    Evening all! Hopefully everyone has had a good and/or productive weekend :)

    Emma, I see you've already had lots of suggestions, but I thought I'd add that there's also the Operation Christmas Child shoebox appeal. Hubby and I do it every year, it's so nice to include a letter or a photo which the child may reply to if they are able. It feels really good to track where in the world your box has gone and to know that a child somewhere will have a box full of what may be the only presents they have ever had :o

    Thanks for this Arthien, looks brill. Local drop off points so really easy to do xx
    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.

    When BUBBS was a puppy I introduced to her to all manor of noises, from gun shots to fireworks - just sat him on my knee and used the laptop increasing the noise as we went along. He's not phased at all :)

    Have been looking for a short break away for me and the DW ended up on ebay for inspiration and thought this was a steal :money:

    Tweets the dog is picking up you are nervous when another dog

    Comes near so is trying to protect you ....

    I did exactly the same with my last dog

    He was to the word trained.

    But I got nervous of other dogs hurting him after a large dog went

    For him he wasn't hurt luckily

    But the dog walked on command but when I saw other dog He sensed

    my nervousness and his heckles would come up and he would bark

    So easier said than done but try to portray a strong character

    As you are alpha one dog to your dog and as for fireworks I walked

    Him out on nights when fireworks started and he ended up not

    minding fire works or the noise from them

    Love the pictures you post :)

    Do you like wearing stripes:D:D:eek::eek:

    The last time I was in prison, I was pleasantly surprised by the outfits. They had deep purple jogging trousers and a Hoody - it looked very comfortable!

    I was just visiting for work… not staying!

    tweets maybe poppy a bit set in her ways now, but would be good advice for a younger dog:)

    My first foray into the elite was on that thread too :D locarr and MKS first to welcome me in :)

    I'd posted something I thought was a bargain on grabbit and the grocery board, and it was carried across onto the elite with no mention of crediting me :(:o if only I'd known how things were gonna turn out :rotfl::rotfl:

    Lots of names I recognise on there, some of them I miss posting, others I certainly don't :cool:

    Tesco used to be so glitchy, what happened?! :eek::rotfl:

    this was a good one you got little thanks for. well you did post it in the wrong place :D

    Another tesco grabbit- Riemann P20 suncream
    at the direct store at cribs causeway- they had P10 marked up at £6 and P20 next to it which didnt have a SEL so i asked them to check and it was £4 :-)

    I recently bought one from Amazon for £8 something and that was the cheapest i could find so proper bargain

    Might be of some use to someone
    just as I started on mse
