    Dogs Helen (bless em) can get to anything if there determined, cassys 11 and still jumps the front fence for her walks.. even though the gates open :rolleyes: when tammy was in season a dog jumped over a 6ft fence (didnt notice)to get to her, the result was a trip to the vets and an expensive spaying..

    Helen,

    I was going to say it was me and i had come to Yorks but couldn't find a tent pitch so slipped in and covered meself in bark (there's a joke in there - dogs-bark :D )to keep warm.

    Pepsi sounds like a really bright spark bless her [​IMG]

    No David not squirrels just a little porker of a Yorkshire Terrier.... she hasn't been for a repeat performance as yet because I keep watching her and because she is a little deaf I can creep up on the old girl the look of amazement in her eyes is a right scream! :D

    Well HELLO stranger!
    Thought you had moved on to pastures new Ste didn't know you were working away. :confused:

    Anyway it's great to have you back and I'm sure your happy with plenty of that money in your mole skin pants! :D

    Just a thought if we have freezing temperatures and lets say your outside doing some work in your garden and of course wearing your famous mole skin pants as you do.

    Would they freeze onto you?
    Would you need to use de-icer do you think?
    If so you better get down to halfords and buy a couple of cans bfore the weather turn nasty! :D

    Anyway Ste nothing changed still got the pain in the bum although at least now I have an appointment to see a spine specialist this friday, so fingers crossed I'll be able to have a merry christmas and get cracking in the garden once again! [​IMG]
    Helen.xxx.

    I can't believe it next door's deaf cat has now got wise to the berberis cuttings I laid out on the borders, he side swipes the sticks too and as for the sonic cat scarer well the cat's DEAF so that doesn't work....the only thing I'm getting any enjoyment out of his daily doings is that I'm still throwing cat poo over the hedge into its mistress's garden.

    Poor Bob's getting really fed up and is now thinking of going comando and placing the doings right in front of her side door which her-next-door always uses!

    Why she can't make a little poo den for her cats is beyond me after all she does have four cats, thank goodness all of them don't use my borders for a toilet! :mad:

    Ste maybe I should print that pic out and place it around my borders....do you think the cat will get the idea?

    More than likely the blooming cheeky thing will knock on our door to use our toilets!
