Nothing as fun as that. I read Dutch fluently a little German and Danish but not for fun. But obviously to make sense to the native reader the titles do get changed a bit. Strangely it does matter who does the translation. Early Nikki French books are great the later ones have very heavy...

Im reading one of the Nikki French novels,Ive read it before but I didnt realise that when I picked it up. Thats the downside of reading in two languages sometimes the titles dont translate very well..lol.

I would also be in favour of a ban shortly followed by a ban on horse racing especially the jumps. I think while a ban for greyhound racing may be feasible because its not really as popular as horse racing nor does it involve the sums of money that horse racing does , it will still take a lot of...

Slightly optimistic post the vet did a needle biopsy today she said don't get your hopes up but what came out looks like fatty tissue there was no blood or pus but of course the samples have been sent to the lab and we hope that we will get the results within a week until then it's just fingers...

Yesterday was the last day of antibiotics. Sadly the lump is still very present it hasn't gone down much if anything since we were at the vet so he has another appointment tomorrow when we can decide the next step.

I once saw a border collie x Bouvier des Flanders. Imagine a bc with a head far too big for itself.. Frankenstein..

Reading Inspector George Gently collection. It strikes me that the George Gently from the novels has very little in common with the TV incarnation. Not much use talking to me about popular books I generally get mine from secondhand stores or community libraries along the side of the road so...

Hello

Ok so we were having this problem with George who is a seven-year-old beagle basically he was getting us up every morning at half past four just to throw up yellow bile the vets diagnosed him with billious vomiting syndrome. They prescribed omeprazol a better antacid than Rennie. However we...

Sheba our Battersea rescue was dark brown and smelly. When i first bathed her and the grime came off she was golden honey coloured with Cleopatra eyeliner. At first she wouldn't even walk across a room for fear of what might happen and crept round behind the furniture.. After about a year I was...

Oscar sat in the kitchen . My daughters friend went in and patted him then she put her hand out and asked for paw... Oscar promptly vomited into her open hand!

I suppose sensibly the car cover that goes all the way from the rear headrests to the front headrests and has slots for their seatbelts to fit through. But for Murphy I guess its his pool. Just 2 meters by 3 its enough for him to splash about in safe from algae/ broken glass/ bacteria etc...

Hello also two dogs and retired.

Ive been keeping a check on George's mystery lump. Fingers crossed it seems to be going down and not coming back up its now half the size it was, now about 1.5 cm and its receded under the jaw. Hopefully it was some kind of infection and the antibiotics will do the trick.

Ok so George was at the vet this afternoon. Obviously just by feeling the vet cant see with any accuracy but , he has no temperature, his is not vomiting or having any other symptoms and he has no other swollen glands that she can find. His heart and lungs sound fine and when he took offense...
