Afy

She is a hooligan.. that is going into training.

Yup. I believe she was jusdged very promising at a dog show. Too bad she is getting sterilised next month.

Fidji is finally home.. and bored. Will post more pics when I actually get home tomorrow. [img]http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh178/afy08/IMGP1380.jpg[/img]

As a third class immigrant to the UK and a second class one to France. I miss home where my life would probably be better.

A new priest at his first mass was so nervous he could hardly speak. After mass he asked the monsignor how he had done. The monsignor replied, "When I am worried about getting nervous on the pulpit, I put a glass of vodka next to the water glass. If I start to get nervous, I take a sip." So next Sunday he took the monsignor's advice. At the beginning of the sermon, he got nervous and took a drink. He proceeded to talk up a storm. Upon his return to his office after the mass, he found the following note on the door: 1. Sip the vodka, don't gulp. 2. There are 10 commandments, not 12. 3. There are 12 disciples, not 10. 4. Jesus was consecrated, not constipated. 5. Jacob wagered his donkey, he did not bet his ass. 6. We do not refer to Jesus Christ as the late J.C. 7. The Father, Son, and Holy Ghost are not referred to as Daddy, Junior and the spook. 8. David slew Goliath, he did not kick the sh*t out of him. 9. When David was hit by a rock and was knocked off his donkey, don't say he was stoned off his ass. 10. We do not refer to the cross as the "Big T." 11. When Jesus broke the bread at the last supper he said, "Take this and eat it for it is my body." He did not say "Eat me" 12. The Virgin Mary is not called "Mary with the Cherry,. 13. The recommended grace before a meal is not: Rub-A-Dub-Dub thanks for the grub, Yeah God. 14. Next Sunday there will be a taffy pulling contest at ST.Peter's not a peter pulling contest at St. Taffy's. (Got this in an email.. thought I would share it. If anyone finds it offensive I will happily delete it)

The best thing about Macclesfield is the train to London.

Well I never said I supported hunting foxes with dogs. That is a little stupid, but I can see the point of riding around the countryside. I do support hunting per se, with a gun and do own a large number. I dont personally hunt, though I love eating game when I can. In the UK a combination a lack of common sense, Health and Safety and the pure apathy of the common man has led to a situation that for even me as a foriegener is not acceptable.

Cremated and ashes down the toilet. End of story.

Well its not just Fox hunting, but hunting per se. In southern england most deer species can be classified as vermin. Foxes are not an issue in the countryside alone. My sister lives in harrow on the hill, which is anything but the countryside and even that area is over run with Foxes. Rabbit, Deer, Foxes, Pigeons et al. Hunting is a means to control populations, since there are no real predators other than man.

Asking for trouble...

What do you call Black Hair dye in the Nordics? ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; Artificial Intelligence.

If you think Manchester is bad, try Macclesfield.

Human beings are the most dangerous animals of them all. Rape should carry a sentence of mandatory castaration.

Christine, foxes are nice animals but still do create havoc. Just look at what is happening in the UK thanks to the hunting ban. While I dont hunt, I do understand why people might do it.

Hasnt started in our area. Which is strange.

Christine yes last month, on the 13th of August. The bed feels so empty without her snuggling up and fighting for the blanket and space, that I have trouble sleeping. I am back to the UK until October, and Fidji will be here when I get back.

Laila had a bloat episode in 2008 and wasnt expected to survive, so the doc didnt attach her stomach to the ribs during surgery. She had another episode in August, and was doing fine after surgery. They removed her spleen, and she was fine. On the third day after surgery her poor little heart gave out. Nathalie has been devestated by this, and which is why we have now gotten Fidji. http://geantsdebourdoux.chiens-de-france.com/site_eleveur/index.php?rub=portees&page=detail&ID_ELEVEUR=12962&ID_SITE=14448&ID_PORTEE=57938&avenir=0 Christine we did look at various dogs and options for adopting, and the wife finally decided to get Fidji. We get her home at the end of the month.

I will happily take the gun books.. just let me know what the shipping is. Will happily pay for it. :D

You do know buying guns is easy in France. You can shoot your own foxes..

Lol.. Yes dogs and cats do get confirmed.. but I do think that wombats are atheists...

Unless you count in Alderly Edge as well. Plus the best thing about Macclesfield... is the train to London. Alos have found our most likely dog: 1. 12 Month old Bringle who can not be confirmed due to having a single teste. 2. 6 month of dougette who is at the breeders. So tomorrow will finalise on one of them.

But I am only there during the week and live out of a Premier Inn.. trust me nothing premier about it.

Well if you're working in Maccelsfield there isnt even cr*p to post about.

Christine I have been lurking.. not posting since have nothing worthwhile to post about. :)

Well wife is French, I am Indian. Work in the UK and commute. Anyhow have tried some of the UK organisations, No go. In our case one house checker came with his two beautiful Dane's but no further progress. So This week since I am on vacation will probably get a six to nine month old pup from a breeder. It really is sad.
