  1. You are not alone, my friend…. Greetings from the sickbay. Lilibeth has pulled off and eaten two dressings after blood test this morning where she won an Oscar for screaming, howling and screeching, and that was before the first attempt to insert a needle… finally owners were sent out and veterinary reinforcements were called in., shameful
  2. No matter how great the trip groceries (and laundry) always are waiting….. A great few days for our heroes.. Another very good read. Thank you!
  3. An interesting day…. 09.00 trapped in lift with the weinerdogs. Managed to escape after 10 min as one dog started to cry. Technician came out and put out of order sign up (holiday here in Valencia). As we carried dogs up flights of stairs we found out that power was off in most of Spain. Nine hours later it’s on but patchy internet. Hundreds were trapped in lifts, train tunnels etc etc. uff.
  4. Yep, I stayed awake! Now for the read. Thanks @Mark Arbour 🥰 Is it just me or is everything going too well at the moment, relationship wise? I’m nervous…..😬

    Hospital

    I’m trying to stay awake but I’m sleepy 🥱
  6. I totally agree, a delightful chapter and a reminder of my visit to Chatsworth many years ago. I wonder what they would have thought of the Lucien Freud paintings! Not quite what I expected …
  7. “Despite the unfamiliar surroundings and a bed they’d never slept in before, the two fell asleep promptly.” The sleep of the just!
  8. A lot of good things packed in here. V enjoyable, indeed!!
  9. Ummmm. They know what they want, that’s true!
  10. Once, and I spent three hours crying my heart out and then slept like a log whilst my bf couldn’t sleep for worrying about my reaction.
  11. “Obstinacy” - a defining ‘quality’ of Dachshunds (weinerdogs) such that mules etc. are compliant in comparison.
  12. Fun chapter but even funnier exchanges, especially those involving @Lee Wilson! MVP this week!
  13. I did and it’s really good.
  14. Very, very clever piece of writing. Well done. One thing could have increased my pleasure, by explaining what the object was after the poem, thereby letting the reader speculate as they read about what the object was. Not a criticism of a delightful piece of poetry. Thanks
  15. I suppose I had better read Lee’s now…… 🤗
  16. About to start…. 👏
  17. Never have I ever been on an Easter Egg hunt 😢

    Date Night

    As I was reading this last night, the end music of a series came drifting in Cass Eliot singing her wonderful “Make your own kind of music”. Rather apt for the characters here, I thought, not quite so for the serial killer in the series El Jardinero on Spanish Netflix. Weird.

    Date Night

    This story goes from strength to strength. Wouldn’t mind being at a nearby table at the pub! 🤭

    Aftermath

    Ummm Gray is playing for high stakes here… Is Vince the type of guy who likes people saying, “Surprise!”? I’m not sure….🤔
  22. Poor you xxxx
  23. Are you better, Chris?
  24. Me neither but then I’m totally, and violently allergic to any type of cheese. When I went to live in Italy decades ago, I had a list of phrase to be translated: no cheese, please; a gin and tonic please; can I get you a drink? …. I didn’t need anything else, except for 🍀
