I'd just like to apologise to anyone that might have responded to a post I might have made - and I fail to respond in kind - I'm just too busy generally - although I do make an attempt usually to respond - but life and it's responsibilities seems to not give me enough time to get to everything I should be getting to - so it seems - 😊

Anyway - life goes on - and today I find myself at 6.15pm - getting kinda sleepy 😴 - since it's been a busy day - up at 4am to take this little rascal of a mutt pup out for a walk - then off to feed and pet Spanky and Smudge - my friends cats - who live a good mile or more away - so I always walk that - then walked home = another mile - had a coffee - and headed - off walking again up Surbiton Hill - to the Surbiton Medical Centre (another mile) - for my 9am 'Zipper Club' exercise class - with med professionals on hand to check my ticker (heart) - before - during - and after the class had finished - and all tests/checks proved good - then after hydrating with half a litre of cool filtered water - was off for another mile fast walk to the gym - where I did a good hour of weight training - then into the lovely swimming 🏊‍♂️ pool for another hour of swimming and aqua exercises - as a sorta cool down - then got showered and changed - and walked another mile to Sainsbury's in Surbiton -

- where I purchased 80 Twinings 'Strong English Breakfast Teabags' for £5 and change - then headed home - walking/marching another half mile or more to get home 🏡 - where I found my boy back from Army Cadets summer camp - and got a loud 'Hello Dad!' - and a big hug - he was most pleased that I'd managed to get the new mutt pup from my sister yesterday - and we both spent an hour or two playing with Loki - the new pup - with much delight - had a big chicken Madras curry with Greek Yogurt and fresh tomato's 😋 - my usual big meal of the day - and after taking the little ankle biter for a walk around the neighbourhood on his new body leash -

- I let him off the lead in the apartment gardens - and he got the 'Zoomies' - running about as fast as his little legs could carry him to and fro - over the lawns and around the trees 🌳 - he didn't run off really - and was quite good - till he saw a pigeon in the carpark and went after it - so I had to chase him down and put him back on the lead - once he'd done a poo 💩 - then had to carry him up the stairs to my 3rd floor des-res 😆 - because he refuses to go up or down stairs currently - being so small as he is - and only 5 months old - so will need stairs training - I presume - winding down now - movie time - and I'll probably fall asleep watching it - lol

Wishing the old and flatulent ones - a very fine day/evening - where ever you are -

Nice one GN... My wife has told me I need to kill my auto Zamaldelica soon, apparently it is stinking up the neighbourhood and I may be noseblind to it! :biglaugh:

I wouldn't worry about the dog learning stairs, just tell him he isn't allowed up them and he'll soon go "meh, what does he know..." and be bolting up them.
He is a bit cute though, even with the kitchen knife stashed by the steps.

This morning, I drove out of town to a Ford dealer trust to have them repair and replace the rear end of my super duty. This is the first time I’ve been out past my driveway to see what kind of water problems we’re having. Pons are over flowing into the street and there’s many areas where you can’t even see the street, I’ve got about a dozen decent size tree limbs. I have to resolve but other than that I remain somewhat unscathed. They gave me one of these hybrid pick up trucks to drive and I am amazed. They can get 430 hp out of a six-cylinder. I don’t care for hybrid, but it does drive Very nice .

My dog Maryjane won’t climb the steps either. Well three or four yes but not a flight of them like at her dog sitters house. She has to be carried up and down. We live in a single level house. I’m sure if we didn't, she would have figured it out by now.

Maybe if the police used the facial recognition cameras to help the police arrest the hooligans and the islamists causing the unrest, things would settle down. Or am I missing something?
They already are, over 400 arrests today and more to follow, the “protesters” first move of robbing the Tesco Express of its cigarettes and alcohol is more of an indication of their character

What happens in Belfast is totally different

How do you know they are the same three birds?
I don’t actually. I just know I have seen two females sparring with one another and have only seen one male at any given time. That is how the Audubon Society has you count during the ‘backyard bird count’. I should have said I have at least 2 females and at least 1 male. Thanks for keeping me honest…😂

Well I knew that you could tell the boys from the girls but thought you identified each one by individual markings or something. Do you and Mrs Fogey keep a log for all the birds you see?

Thats where Dog put out a rip roaring prairie fire and saved Montana and Big at the same time.
I didn't want to be the one to bring it up, dogzter and I are getting along, being the cool kids in class. There was never any evidence to verify the source of the fire other than it started on dogzter property. Through his bravery and determination Montana was saved, from surely the worst environmental disaster Montana would have ever experienced. He is more than just a care-giver to the animal kingdom. He is Montana's man.

How are you today my good man; surely this life would be less of a humorous place without your witty and charming ways:)

I am a bit of a bird brain and do participate in the ‘Big Backyard Bird Count’. If I did this a few million years ago(I am not THAT old), I would be a paleontologist…😂
