Hi Polly, well that was a fun day, Sarika timing her illness (both ends) with Mrs Davidmh being out and me being almost immobile. As I wrote in the forums I had to laugh (although I admit it was verging on HYSTERIA) and my attempt at clearing up would have made an interesting picture!! Anyway my gorgeous Princessliness seems a bit perkier today so hopefully she is on the mend but it is still OUCH as far as my back is concerned. Allowing for canine illnesses, my disc problem has its advantages as my domestic goddess days also seem over, at least temporarily, so no hoovering, lifting etc....I still can do a bit of dusting though if I get withdrawal symptoms .....WE WILL SEE. Anyway we shall continue to sing “ALWAYS LOOK ON THE BRIGHT SIDE OF LIFE” and, as usual, the girlie gundogs and dobes join me in sending cuddles and kisses. And finally, Two cannibals are eating a clown. One cannibal turns to the other and asks, "Does this taste funny to you?" xx
Hiya Polly, sorry I`ve not been to visit you lately, but it`s a very busy time of year here at Rainbow Bridge. Organising all the angel `elves` etc, baking mince pies, stuffing turkeys, not to mention the occassional swig of festive champers! I`m sending you a wee tot of whisky to keep you (or Mum) , warm on your walks. Stay warm, love from your friend Angel Mikey----Chief Rainbow Bridge Elf and wearer of reindeer deely boppers.xxxx
Hi Polly, tip to self(1)....be more careful when lifting and turning with a full bucket of water. No, I didn’t spill it on the floor, in fact I rather wish I had....instead I have ended up with a prolapsed disc in my lower spine. And yes, it was OUCH (amongst other words) then, OUCH now and OUCH for some time to come. At least the doggies are all “in the pink”...well, actually the girlie gundogs, the Princessliness Sarika and Purdey the Poomonster, are in the not surprisingly MUD COLOURED BROWN (the paths and tracks round here being filthy at the moment) and Max, well Max is in a bed which I suppose could be pink but is actually BLUE. Anyway they join their injured slave in sending their regards. And finally, one for the anglers.....Two parrots are sitting on a perch. One turns to the other and says "Can you smell fish?" xx
Hello gorgeous - excuse the smell, but I managed to find a dead hedgehog to roll on this morning - mum was not impressed! Then she let me on my 26ft extendable lead - I love it, I could chase the birds and everything but mums arms are a bit longer now! Yoikes! Leaving you a pink hot water bottle with a heart on it today - hee hee. Love from your hunky Tobes xx
Hi Polly sorry i've not been around for a while, how are you my friend, not finding it too cold I hope and it looks like it might rain all weekend according to the weather, leaving you some vegetable soup and a mug of hot chocolate to warm you up. Oh yes and Bally being the cheeky girl that she is says if you have the time could you please vote for her as Laydee of the year by sending a private message to theshadow kennel, thank you xxx
Hiya Polly. Well it's been a rotten fortnight so forgive me for not visiting. I've had ANOTHER bout of gastroenteritis, mum had a bad reaction to antibiotics and now gran has to go for an emergency appointment at the hospital on the 10th December! So we could do with some hugs.....Love Kim. xxxxx
Hi Polly, today a tip for the humans. If you decide to ponce yourself up a bit with a quick squirt of Armani Code (men’s version, he added quickly!!!)....well you never know who you might meet on a “walkies”, it could be one of those SIMPLY GORGEOUS LADIES FROM DOGGYSNAPS.....anyway, to continue....make sure that the NOZZLE is not pointing at your eye. Because BLOODY HELL, ARMANI CODE STINGS!!!! (Note to self....must wear glasses when applying aftershave). TYPICALLY the girlie gundogs and dobes, who are all fine, were no support to their aged human slave in his time of need but were seen sniggering behind their paws at his pain and, in particular, his use of the English language! So it is love to you lot from them and the currently partly blind but actually now also very fragrant me. X
Hi Polly, pleased to meet you! Thanks for dropping by to meet our new little brother. We think he's ok most of the time, but he can be a handful. He's lovely at the moment, 'cos he's asleep! Here's some ice cream as a special treat...shhhh! Don't tell your mum! Love Honey, Etty, Sandie and Bos xxxx
Hi Polly , well it's another wet and miserable day in Manchester. Granny is poorly with another bad migraine, mummy sent her back to bed and is worried about her, she'll go and check on here later, shes leaving her to sleep for abit now. We enjoyed a nice and quiet weekend, the sun was out yesterday but it was still very chilly. Jinx ws abit better on her walkies yesterday, but still quite nervous, poor thing, we had cooked chicken for tea last night, we all waited and watched patiently as mummy demolished the carcus for us yummy, and none of us lifted our heads out of the bowl until it was all gone yummy, we saved some for our doggysnaps friends, so enjoy :) love Dinky, Jinx and Frankie xxxxxx
Hi Polly. Sorry I've not visited for a while but the reason is: NOTHING'S HAPPENED!! Yep, has been really boring here, just rain, rain and more rain. Luckily it brightened up today and mum & gran took me for a lovely long walk beside the canal. I had great fun jumping around in all the leaves!. Leaving you some treats. Love Kim.xxxx
Hi Polly, so the walk went really well. The wind was blowing a gale and seemed to have dried up most of the tracks, despite the recent torrential rain. There were some nasty filthy puddles where the muddy water was black but otherwise all was great. My gorgeous Purdey (I absolutely adore her really) was a darling, a paragon of virtue, a simply well behaved girlie, no noxious things were subjected to her backstroke, no none at all, it was a MIRACLE really. And as for the Princessliness, well Sarika was as always “mad as a box of frogs”, full of beans and fun. She always sticks close to me on our walks unless there is a leaf, moth, butterfly, JUMBO JET etc to chase. Wonderful. So I bent down to give them both a kiss (yes, I know I am a soppy old sod) and was immediately engulfed in girlie gundogs. Their paws were round my neck, they were in my arms, everywhere, and I got subjected to the treatment, licks and kisses. I love those moments, they are so very precious.......I am not sure when I remembered that they both had spent a bit of very recent time in one of those “nasty filthy puddles” previously mentioned. Was it before or after I noticed the condition of my clothes? Suffice to say that Max is currently watching the washing machine do its thing. AND THAT BEGS THE QUESTION..is watching it hypnotising him, it is on so often, so he is not really asleep he is actually in a trance? Hmmmmmm. I wonder how you tell. AND FINALLY...A man went to into an hardware store and picked up a can of fly spray. "Is this good for wasps?" he asked the assistant. "No, it kills them" was the reply.
Yoo hoo Polly, if it`s been a bit breezy of late, blame me. I do love a good blow, it makes cloud racing so much fun. Sorry if it ruffles your fur!! Mum went to Ikea yesterday, so I`m sending you a spare allen key and some screws that `seem to be left over`. love Angel Mikey.xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Hey Polly...that was a really nice weekend me and dad had, lots of extra walks, treats and guess what.....mum wanted to know what my quilt was doing at the side of the bed upstairs....hee hee, dad said I could sleep upstairs because I'd been a good lad. Mum's back now and she got me some nice treats from the dog deli at the Discover Dogs show in London, yummy! Leaving treats for you, love Hunky Tobes xx PS mum was really impressed they had the KC good citizen display team there, I know you can get to gold! xx

Hi Polly, so there was this pile of deer poo. First the golden sand coloured hairy east European girlie gundog, she of royal lineage, looked at it, sniffed it and then decided that the leaves fluttering in the wind were of much greater interest. Then the silver grey coloured hairy east European girlie gundog looked at it and sniffed it AND then decided that the leaves were more interesting too. PHEW went the aged human, rather smugly, knowing that Mrs Davidmh was at the stables so any “stinky” washing and “desmelling with tomato sauce” duties would be down to him. He started to whistle. So engrossed in his whistling was he (it was a complicated tune with REQUIRED changes of key AND descants – the aged human interestingly being very good at them when they are NOT REQUIRED but not so when they ARE) that he failed to notice the silver grey one doubling back until it was too late. He turned around just in time to see her, all four legs in the air, actually wriggling her back in the aforementioned deer poo.......next time I had better stick to easier whistling, Young Folks or Colonel Bogey! AND BY POPULAR REQUEST... A pair of cows were talking in the field. One says, "Have you heard about that mad cow disease that's going around?" "Yeah," the other cow says. "Makes me glad I'm a penguin."
Hiya. Well I was apparently a good girl last night with the fireworks. I did bark (a lot) but then settled down next to mum or gran for a cuddle and didn't bother when the little ones went off - which I usually do!. I think it had something to do with some liquid gran has been putting on my food...... Mind you, I didn't want to go into the garden to do what I have to do and got mum up at 12 o'clock when the fireworks had stopped. Gran then got up too but they didn't mind - until I came back in and wanted to play - hee hee! Love Kim. x
Hi Polly, today the girlie gundogs and dobes, who are all well if a bit muddy, are delivering a joke. It is probably an oldie but I have only just heard it and it made me laugh..... A doctor says to his patient, “I have bad news and worse news”. “Oh dear, what's the bad news?” asks the patient. The doctor replies, “You only have 24 hours to live.”“That's terrible”, said the patient. “How can the news possibly be worse? ”The doctor replies, “I've been trying to contact you since yesterday.”....Ho Ho....right, I am off to power wash the patio x
