I just want to tickle that tummy in picture two. 8) They become so much a part of the family that parting with them is heart breaking.

Lesley Anthony has just said they are part of our family and heartbreaking when we lose them. Teddy looks so lovely and to lose Teddy at a such a young age, such a heartache.  If I was near you I could give you a big cuddle. So instead I give you a  :-*

Sorry to read of all the lost pets.
Having lived here for 30+ years we have many roses and trees where dogs and cats are now blooming again.
The very hardest was the Corgi who used to chase the car - and yes I ran her over. It was such a s..t and then to have to say Yes put her down. Then to bury her as that was the last that I could do for her. Dogs and car never mix.

Now, just to state the claim! ;D I'm not sure Lancashire can lay claim to meat and potato pies (meyt and taty pah to give it it's proper name) the proper side of the Pennines has a far stronger claim in my view ;)

And he no doubt showed it as only a dog can. Irrepressible and irreplaceable.

David, I just meant Lancashire meat and potato pies as in "meat and potato pies from Lancashire". Not trying to start a war over their origins.  ;D
