Public Service Announcement

I had a bit of a shock of late, people are actually reading this, which I find unexpected. Which is a bit silly as that is the whole point, my sibs and some friends. I got my very first comment ….

** Dance scene from knight’s tail, such a good film **

… ok, back with you now, it’s on to adverts. So to the public service bit, if you want to post a comment you can, (Click where it says comments, not the envelope) if you choose other you can put your own identifier in! However there are a few “Safety features” in place after the whole “MySpace – porn cam” debacle
One – you have to type in the letters for the screen to prove you’re not a bot. quite cool is the fact that if you cant read the letters you can get then read out and you just have to type the sounds

Two – I get to read it first, just so I can check you’re not some one about to catch their death from cold!

Check Up

I seem to be a little fixated on my dogs, so here is another post on them, well him to be precise.

He had his first annual check up with the vet today, which was nice. He’s in near perfect health. His lungs, hips and teeth are good and he’s in the middle of the recommended weight range, but now to the purpose of the post, his weight

Which is: 45 kg = 99 lb = 7 st 1 lb = 1 heavy dog!

Hero Quest

It rained all day, it’s cold and wet. It took me two hours to get home, a 100% increase in time taken, rubbish

First Day at School

Not quite school, more training, dog training in fact. EMB and I took Ulrick to a training class. He was so excited! To be technically correct it’s the second class he’s been to, but the first one they were mean to Ulrick, not letting him join in. It was a GSD class and they called him a devil dog (which to be fair is a name sometime applied to Akitas), after which he was home schooled for a while, EMB was quite upset by the whole thing to be honest.

Anyway they let him join in; although they did spray him with water when he started to bark (normal for training) he did enjoy it, licking the hand of the lady who sprayed him. There was also the most barking I’ve ever heard from him, which was a lot. He only went seriously off track once, when he was let off the lead, he ran towards EMB, and then veered towards everyone else, & their dogs. Sniffed some bottoms and then EMB got him back.

Made me anxious but we ended up ok. Going back in the New Year, paid up front. It’s something to make a Sunday afternoon.

The Morning After The Night Before

Ok, so last night I went out with work which leads to 3 points of note

I got I.D.’d!

Bartender asked me for ID, I laughed said I was 30 & didn’t have any. He then settled for having a credit card waived at him. I think this is worth mentioning, as a (probably) never to be repeated event.

I danced like an idiot

Ok probably not shocking news but it was much fun and as such worth mentioning

I got a taxi home at twenty to 3

I shared a taxi back with two friends, it took a long time for me to comprehend that it was that stupid time in the morning, we didn’t quite get to a big hand little hand description, but we were close.

All in all a superior works party - now I'm going to bed
