    3Dogs, how anyone can even contemplate let alone go through with these horrors is beyond me, so so inhumane.
    I try to be an advocate for all animals. My 2 darling border collies (rescues) are part of the family, jokingly my fur babies. I honestly feel like they are my children although I do not humanise them too much. They are definately dogs so are made to go outside after dinner, sleep in the kitchen, never eat from plates or beg at the table and all the other things that dogs do and not humans. But I would protect them like my children, I know their quirks, their likes and dislikes and wouldn't, for example, leave my youngest dog alone with children. This doesn't make him a bad dog, it would make me a bad mum to him if I put him in that situation. We have to stop dogs being made to fit in with us, they are individuals like people, and if you want one who will fit in with you you will more than likely be disappointed.
    Woah, look at my rambling! Anyway 3dogs, you and your team are doggy angels. Keep up the good work.
    I sometimes find myself with a surplus of dog treats or leads and collers, please drop me a message if I can be of any help.

    Previously we always gave our dogs scraps, always left a piece for each of them from our meals, and they plenty of their own treats. But when I fostered my first Rommie, Oxy, he just wasn't interest when I was eating so I didn't encourage it. When I adopted Berry Bear, he again had no interest, so has never had human food from me, and Noela is the same. Millie being a UK rescue and a little spoilt terrier, came looking for my food but soon gave up when I didn't give her any

    We are always looking for donations of collars/lead, food etc. In fact we have a lorry of aid going out at beginning of December and I am picking a car load of bedding etc from Essex in a couple of weeks time and then adding my donations and taking it all up to the depot in Rochdale ready to go over

    Good Morning :)

    3Dogs your post :cry:

    Poppy was found wandering the streets of Manchester so the Manchester Dogs Home knew nothing about her life before she found her forever home with me :A.

    I know she lived in a place before me where they had a baby and young children with a lad around 20 . I know this with how she acted when she saw heard these people when I first got her. Poppy still looks and runs looking if she hears a baby cry on the tv.

    We went to bed at 9pm last night after X Factor .
    Heard no more fireworks apart from the ones when I got back from mums. But Poppy wouldn't settle and she had no tea again and had to be taken in garden for bedtime de wee wee's.

    Glad there weren't any more fireworks last night tweets. Glad you rescued Poppy from MDH, she is such a lucky woofer to have you, but I know that you are the lucky one to have her :A

    Morning all. Very foggy here too - take care any elite who have to drive in it.
    Could I ask a favour please? Our broadband is pitifully slow and we are thinking of changing to Virgin media. We don't know anyone who has it so can't get any opinions of it. If any elite are Virgin users or former users I'd love to know what you think, both in terms of performance and customer service. TIA. (I'm pretty sure DM uses it but I think he's still away)

    Morning mad squad,

    Virgin is the best broadband provider by miles, don't be fooled by other companys claims, when it comes to speed they can't compete with virgin, check ofcom, the end.
    I do try to keep up but sometimes life gets in the way.
    I'm just a penny short of a pound. Peace and Love.

    I've joined the 5:2 club cos mrT made me eat 1p chocolate.

    We are very happy with Virgin Media. I haven't had any problems with customer service. The installation didn't go quite as planned and we had to wait an extra few days for the landline to be installed correctly, but other than that have had no problems. Broadband is particularly good if you have lots of devices on it.

    Multipacks of seabrooks are 50p in Morries (don't go after an apg for them until wednesday at earliest)

    Shame they aren't still on cashback

    Alpen back to £1 but apg should continue to match at 50p today/tomorrow

    Hoping FC is OK, anyone know? Just tried to PM her but no space left, and she was last on this site on 22/10.

    Morning E:D

    I remember Scamps going AWOL at one point and we were having a debate over how we could contact him. FC posted that ......in her opinion........we should not try....that is......everyone should be able to "disappear" if they chose to without someone knocking on their door......not quite like that but you know what I mean:)
