Ignore her she's probably checking if Beeglies treats have any sugar in them. My money's on Beeglie to win the fight . Actually i wonder if she can type I bet she wouldn't go round threatening innocent people.pollyx

Hang on a sec.....*accesses D reamies website*Nope, no sugar in those either.

Oh you can't mention the D word Wolfie . Youngest had to wean her two off them. The vet described them as crack cocaine for cats. They had terrible withdrawal symptoms Big Ginger Boy used to be clawing at my shopping bag his Cheese Ds used to arrive in his little sister just stared at me with malice. It took months. I found packs of sticks in the Coop that help their teeth Magrat likes the fish ones and Stimps the meat ones they've now forgotten the D word and no one must mention it in front of then again. The Ds were really expensive compared to the soft sticks from the Coop.Have you any doggy guests?pollyxIt is better to light a single candle than to curse the darkness.

I've sacrificed a whole ten minutes of my life just for you Mar. Tell the RV you need to go somewhere urgently. Fix your best poor wee wummin who's ever so 'umble look on your face and get in the car. You're heading to Ollerton in Sheffield the home of Bassetts makers of Jelly Babies.197.8 miles from Borders via the A1 so you might want to see if you can manage to jam your recliner into the car. Journey roughly 3 hrs 45mins.I did try to find if you could make your own Jelly Babies. No proper ones online but some hideous things my eyes will never forgive me for.So there you are,your choice. Whatever you decide but if you whinge again about bluddy jelly babies I'll be heading up the A1 and it wont be pretty. It isn't easy you know having a friend who from time to has homicidal tendencies towards you.Just go and whinge at the door of Bassetts factory with a large begging bowl. They might decide to send you a weekly supply just to get rid of you. Pity we don't have a filter ilke the swear filter on the fence we could block certain words and never see them again.If they aren't sympathetic at the factory just walk away silently if you can do silent . No threats the courts are busy enough and no one likes to see a desperate pensioner in the dock or listen to them. To stay honest if I'm asked to give evidence I'd have to appear on behalf of the prosecution. If asked has she ever threatened to kill anyone? I'd have to say yes me I'm not sure if she's done it to anyone else.Anyway time marches on. Roughly 3hrs 45min journey means if you're going you'll just about make it before the factory closes for the day.As a prepper you might consider if with the fuel shortages that long two way journey is worth it for sweeties.pollyxJust had to edit this post. Noticed I'd typed Homicidal Tenancies! If there are such things I'm glad you aren't a landlady Mar. No you can't be one before you even consider it.It is better to light a single candle than to curse the darkness.
