    Morning all, just checking the list while I have a cuppa, have to get dressed in a sec & pop to asda for supplys, then I'll make a start.
    Second load is in the WM, and first load is in the TD.

    Well after posting I thought I'd walk the poochie and have a sneeky look around the back alley, I noticed the house on the end had 3 bins! So I half-inched one, and it's safely locked in my yard until I get the paint out this week :rotfl:

    Will add to this list other jobs that I need to do today while I can.

    lol... I am such a bad influence..

    n.b. I do not normally go around suggesting taking part in criminal activity!!

    Bit of a p*** take though.. 3 bins!!! Unless the house is in 3 flats it's a bit out of order. We have 2 but there are 10 of us so we are allowed.

    *panic* will my doggy be ok?
    *deep breath* calm and assertive that this is the best thing for him like Ceaser says. He will be fine, will feel loads better without his manly bits making him want to find girly bits.

    He will honestly be fine - despite the incompetent paperwork incident first thing!:rolleyes: I can't believe how unorganised they were when you dropped him off......... I work in a vets and that would never happen when dropping pets off for ops. You need calm owners that can give you the info, like checking contact numbers, without getting too upset.
    He will be fine - it's a really quick op - literally twist and snip and a couple of stitches. It only takes about 15 minutes but we always keep them till they're around from their anaesthetic properly before we let them go. You probably know all the plus points already like he won't get old man problems or cancer in that area because the bits aren't there!! :D
    Let us know how he is later. xx
