Better tell them then!   [:D]     

Excellent !  

Come alive man ! http://www.shopswiss.com/Default.aspx?tabid=95&List=1&CategoryID=10&Level=1&SortField=ProductName,ProductName [quote user="woolybanana"]Perhaps some of us might consider these for our cows, especially, in my case, the big cow at the top of the road. Christine, if you put them on your dogs you could create beautiful music, rather better than Shopenshower, anyway. http://www.shopswiss.com/Default.aspx?tabid=95&List=1&CategoryID=10&Level=1&SortField=ProductName,ProductName[/quote]

He has to have a bell on each cow to differentiate them, by the ding-ding or the ding-dong.  Why doesn't he just put their name on their collar!?   [6]

Thank you Hoddy, such moving stories.  I think Rocky has also gone to live with the daughter or the niece.  

On Sunday, 11th November an elderly man from Narbonne went looking for mushrooms with his Cocker Spaniel Rocky.  As they never returned neighbours alerted the police who searched but found nothing.  Three weeks later by chance a chasseur came across the car down a track with a flat tyre and the man's body lying nearby with Rocky still at his side.  They think the poor man must have had a heart attack trying to change the wheel and that Rocky, very thin, had survived by drinking in puddles of water.  But if that chasseur had not come along, he would have let himself die not to leave his master. http://www.midilibre.fr/2012/12/03/il-veille-le-corps-de-son-maitre-durant-3-semaines,605220.php  

Rescue dogs are sooooooo clever.  Everyone should have one! Dogs Learn to Drive in New Zealand The whole story :  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VKMOUwUugtI "I think sometimes people think because they’re getting an animal that’s been abandoned that somehow it’s a second-class animal,” SPCA Auckland’s CEO Christine Kalin told the New Zealand Herald. “The dogs have achieved amazing things in eight short weeks of training, which really shows with the right environment just how much potential all dogs from the SPCA have as family pets.”

Loved that Brian.  So it's not only a recipe, but a restaurant!  There are a couple who have been banished to a trou on the roof. There are also a couple of spelling mistakes, can you spot them?  

                                        A N G E L A !  

Crapaud dans son trou. (recette de sorcière).    

[quote user="woolybanana"] Anyway, good to have you back whoever you were; put a little fresh blood into the forum as some barrel dwellers are getting distinctly raddled! [/quote]   Ca doit être la saucisse !  

Luckily the German police are a little more efficient !  

"Why keep changing all the eating irons and generating all that extra washing up?" Yeah, just wipe the plate and knife well with a piece of bread!   Why are soup spoons round anyway, so you just sort of sip it off instead of putting the whole spoon in your mouth?  In France they don't spoon up soup away from you either, just do it normally.   [:D]  

Happy Birthday Norman !   Did you really manage to eat it with that fish knife and fork ?   [:D]       

That's really great news.  Looks like there's another lucky one on his way too !  

Amazing.  What a shame they demolished it after it travelled safely all that way.  It could have been placed somewhere as a sort of "souvenir".  

No didn't see that one Chancer, but saw her in a snake restaurant kitchen in Vietnam joining in (not for the squeamish) !  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBx2OeRJOHc   That's funny because not long ago you said there wasn't much on French tv and I nearly said "but don't you like Fourchette et Sac à Dos?" as it it seemed your style.  Also you say Julie is maybe a good actress and perhaps you're right as her mother is Nicole Courcel, a well known French actress.   P.S.  Just seen, there's one of her in London.  Must watch that later. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CwYnUJTAUXA&feature=related Just watched a bit, the jellied eel kitchen is as bad as the snakes!   [:'(]  

This is a programme I really enjoy where Julie travels to different areas showing us the local traditions, food, recipes and way of life of the people there.  Yesterday's was in the Pays de Sarlat, Périgord Noir which should interest some of you.  Some of her other interesting and very pleasant programmes are further down on the page. http://www.emissionreplay.fr/emission/42723/france-3/les-carnets-de-julie/l-emission-du-samedi-27-octobre-2012.html  

Oh that's just lovely Jouals.  The comparison between those last two photos!  Isn't that just what it's all about.  Whoever is taking care of her, they are marvellous people.  Beautiful story.

It does appear to ba a country practice when someone is in the way Un renard mort déposé chez un militant anti-algues The plot thickens as we wonder if it is due to the flashy white socks, his locked up wife or his frequentations with an eccentric British neighbour. But, as you say, poor fox.  

Orange can be proud that it was maybe one of their mobiles that filmed that !   [:D]  

Jolie chanson     http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6eWPVJf8g2I   And here's the 1974 film I think John (you have to connect, but I havent tried, saw it back then though) http://www.youtube.com/verify_age?next_url=/watch%3Fv%3DM2J0oZB1grE  

I saw in July that she was not well and felt very sad today to see she had died.
