[merciasounds]

Shotgun on the lobster? Er what does that mean? I aready almost had to chase the begger round the kitchen to get it into the freezer before i could cook him!!!

[mccfluff]

dodgy tum today, just some toast and tea please

[Dris]

Blush pear etc salad,Lamb and toffee pud -lovely :)

[merciasounds]

Poor Fluffy!! Try a glass of tonic water (On it's own!!) that's a good tummy settler.

[bobjugs12]

Shotgun means that I called for it first, so by law, it belongs to me.

[merciasounds]

Lobster bisque? Oh, yes ... NOW you're talking !!!!!!!

And the crispy duck sounds fab.

As usual ... the cheese.

And, as usual ... "bleeaagh and poo" to the vegetarian options.

I think I fancy a pear cider today. It's that sort of weather.

Hello mercia and 4-legs. Have appointment this afternoon so may I please have just the blush pear, stilton & walnuts and a pot of your finest? Thank you

[merciasounds]

I'm a bit worried about Lotte ttfn - I don't know if it's the weather but she's...I don't know - she's eating normally, but...there's just something I can't put my finger on - she seems a bit 'clingy' - like a child - won't run off with the others, she sticks by me, comes in and goes straight to her basket. I know she's getting on in doggie years....the vet said she was fine last month when she had her annual check up. It might be just me!

[ttfn]

Mercia - are you sure Lotte is not in sympathy with you and the pain you have at the moment? We know they can do that, they don't want to leave our sides for a minute. Just a thought, but I am glad she has recently been checked out by the vet. Hope her behaviour is soon returned to normal ♥

My boys (GSP x weimaraner) are quick to pick up when things aren't right and will "cling" to the person who has the problem.
