Re: General Chit Chat
Not planning on getting my own hair cut like this but if any of you fancy a new haircut for charity (and have enough to do it which rules a lot of you out
) i'd pay good money!

I remember seeing him live in last seasons goalie kit. My eyes haven't recovered yet. Perhaps lilac would be more your shadetruewhite15 wrote:I'd look fecking weird in pink. I bear a passing resemblance to Adam Bogdan, so picture him in last season's goalie kit, and you get the gist.

Pink is a colour that can only be worn by a guy who is confident in his own sexuality. Or so I like to think, seeing as I have 3 pink t shirts.......

Re: General Chit Chat
Good for you Bob. 
Anyway now I am back from holiday - will bore you with some pics later - I am turning my mind towards a new dog. For various reasons I don't want a huge gap between Milo and the new one. Milo can never be replaced but I hate living without a dog, just feels wrong. we don't want to take on a puppy particularly but an older dog - which probably means rescue dog - and there may not be that many around that are good with children and cats so am guessing we may have to wait a while.
I'd like something medium-ish sized. Preferably a gundog or gundog cross, spaniel, retriever, setter, Labrador or some mix of. Don't mind whether it's a dog or bitch - though am used to dogs. Are girls easier anyone?! Age wise probably between about 2-8. Anyone recommend any other breeds I could consider.
I am home a fair amount during the day, can offer a medium ish amount of exercise, 2 walks a day. Can't have anything that likes to chase as cats and chickens around.

Re: General Chit Chat
Bugger! I was going to recommend a whippet or a Greyhound. There's loads need homes and they don't need much exercise other than short bursts. I imagine though that they have a very strong chase instinct. Since you can never ever replace Milo, save you worrying about a new dog living up the old one - why not get 2?Gooner Girl wrote:Good for you Bob.

Re: General Chit Chat
Yeah, Bish has a greyhound with chickens but his are in a very secure run and he doesn;t have cats. As for the 2, i am working on Mr GG. Have fallen in love with these 2 who have to go together...Harry Genshaw wrote:

Re: General Chit Chat
See, you've made me want one now. Gus would love getting caked in mud whilst doing the three rezzies. Trust me, I can tell, I'm an expert.Gooner Girl wrote:Can just see twins and dogs flying down the high street!Bruce Rioja wrote:

Going to phone shortly and at least enquire whether they would be suitable...

Re: General Chit Chat
They are gorgeous. I like the two Tripods as well (never knew that was the term for a 3 legged dog) that want housing together. They shouldn't need too much exercise?Gooner Girl wrote:Yeah, Bish has a greyhound with chickens but his are in a very secure run and he doesn;t have cats. As for the 2, i am working on Mr GG.

Depending on how steady on their feet they are i might not be able to manage both of them and a double buggy!Harry Genshaw wrote:They are gorgeous.
