~☆☆~ΨΨ~The Night Before Xmas~ΨΨ~☆☆~ in The AnswerBank: Christmas

Sis called. The vet's been and it was all very peaceful. They allowed their other dog to remain in the room, which seems to have been the right decision. He's been walking up to her body a couple of times to check things out but he isn't in distress.

Robinia

oh Kit it's sad isn't it but I'm sure your sister's dog had a good life with her...someone once told me that when you have 2 cats & one dies the one that's left accepts it better if it sees the body of the one that's gone...I don't know how true that is. I've got a lovely poem somewhere that my neighbour gave me when I lost Mac, I'll mail it to you if I can find it.

mmm, no chslady for a day or two... I expect she's wearing her new handbag in...

erm, what's this Vincent? Biddies2 ...? I posted that song Sat night...why you no risten?

You cheeky monkey..ill have you know I wears one of them Australian hats.Erm..it must work cos i sent meself one earlier on..(:O)

DaSwede

do-be-do-be-do... ...we're all just waiting for Jude to come home and tell us what went down, aren't we. I think she slipped him a mickey, don't you?

Yeah I know what you mean Vinny (about the other dog being in the room too). It's hard to know what is best. But I think they were hoping for what Robinia describes - that it will give him some kind of idea what happened - otherwise one animal can just go on looking for the lost one forever. It's a big room (their living room) and my brother-in-law was sitting with him in the background as my sister was sitting on the floor with the vet. / I'm glad you like dogs - seeing as you're surrounded by a band of dog lovers, ha ha. Don't suppose a pig (like the adorable Mudsling) would ever jump up to bite you on the nose though...

Yes please Robinia I'd like that poem. / Chocolate too can give you migraines, they say. There's a Danish variety called Anthon Bergh's New Guinea that, they claim, has "a powerful flavour of smoked peat and malt" - bet that gives you a hangover.

Don't s'pose any of you are awake anymore - I went out for a late night walk. A man came up to me with some kind of unintelligible request and I looked at him - really just to try to make out what he was saying - but it may have looked to him like a stern stare 'cos he completely lost his footing and almost fell over to the left, ha ha that was funny.

cooder again

jno

tut, Kit out causing mayhem among the men on the streets of Stockholm in the middle of the night.... am I surprised??

cant wait to go to ikea....hehe..!
ooh jno zuperbug has had them in the warehouse since before xmas...and very nice they taste to.

DaSwede

IKEA is coming to Devon? Be sure to try this arm chair out, it's really comfortable: Po�ng (Or were you just hallucinating again about IKEA...? Or maybe I'm missing a joke, I'm not seeing the context.)

Yes I may be roaming the streets at night (the grocery store doesn't close until eleven and I'm a night owl anyway) but at least I do come home, which seems to be more than we can say for our Jude. This is going to be so interesting...

Overheard at the deli:

-Oh so you know her. How are the two of you acquainted?
-Uhm, we were together for a while. I think.

Jude123

Well good afternoon everybodyThought I'd better report in. I arrived home after refusing a request to go back to his place for coffee! I now know how an Agony Aunt feels. he talked non stop about a lovely woman he had met and wanted my advice on how to go about getting her to go out with him on a more permanant basis. I said he ought to ask her out for a drink and tell her exactly what he had told me hoping she would be bored to death and turn him down. Revenge is sweet.!! He asked me to go out tonight but I said I couldn't stand another night of being an Agony Aunt again. He did have the courtesy to apologise but I was glad to get home to watch my recording of Taggart which I'm afraid also turned out to be depressing.
Anyway there is light at the end of the tunnel cos I got a call yesterday from another chap I know who says would I like to go out and eat on Saturday night so I have something else to look forward to and I know we have a laugh when we go out together.
By the way thanks for the Sinatra song Vinny The guy's only saving grace was that he looked a bit like Sinatra when he was about 60.
2 helpings of Led Zep in one week brilliant!!.

See yer later 'gater(s) :o)

Robinia

oh bloomin' cheek Jude, he asked you out just to talk about another woman?! there's always one who doesn't know what he wants or hasn't got the sense to go for it when he does ....hope you pointed him in the direction of Backbones r Us, hahaha...

oooh, that sounds harsh doesn't it? ...... :o)

nobody wants a man who's full of it but I've met one or two like that. I had a similar experience with someone who contacted me via Friends reunited...I started to get the feeling he was trying to find out about someone else....so I escorted him to the deleted box, ha!
ne'er mind, enjoy your meal on Saturday...

keep smilin'

Robinia

oh look ^ ^ ^
still another month to Valentine's & we've got bloomin' hearts up there....tut...well, rub it in why don'tcha AB!!

Hi folks
Been miserable and bit down ..all my nearest and dearest are dropping like flies .I have a husband with the man flu ,a child with maxillary sinusitus .Plus my eldest brother (in Oz ) has had a stroke . My other brother is unwell too with severe oedema in his legs. So I have been dodging around a bit .
And my old friend in London has a gruelling time ahead of her .She has breast cancer and it has spread .We've been friends for a quarter of a century and I can't be there for her .
But as the old saying goes ..You can't dance at every wedding much as you would like to....
Anyway enough morbidity .....
I am sorry to hear about the pooch Kit ...give my regards to your sis ..I know what she is feeling like ...The one best place to bury a good dog is in the heart of his master.xx
Vinny .....Einem geschenkten Gaul schaut man nicht ins Maul !! We've had a ship aground off the Yarmouth Roads for a couple of days now .Luckily they got the crew off and they are trying to refloat her today .
As for that chapJude I would give him the spanish archer toot sweet !! B. Cheek !
Hope you are well otherwise xxxx

Jude123

Hi Shaney hope you are alright. I was so wrapped up in my 'affairs' I didn't ask how everybody was.
Let's all hope for some sunshine soon to cheer us all up :o).

DaSwede

Evening possums. Shaney I daresay that's a bit too much, poor old you, and your brothers, and your friend. You can still be there for them over the phone can't you. Don't stay away from the biddy threads, we'd rather have you morbidly murmuring in a corner than not at all. That goes for La Neti too - where is she?

Ah Jude if your date had taken place in a fifties movie the guy would have been going on about this woman and how to get her to see him every night and when Ginger Rog- ...er, you, would have gotten annoyed he would have said: But... don't you see...it's you, you fool...! / Hm but it wasn't a movie was it. What a jerk. But something tells me there'll always be plenty more fish in Jude's sea

Speaking of dates, Cracker starts again on Sunday, hope I remember to watch it, Robbie Coltrane is such a great actor. There was an American version made of it, did that air in Britain? It wasn't bad by normal standards and yet it was almost embarrassing to behold, knowing how it "should" be done.

how it should be sung
