Good luck with it, I hope its a great success, but I have to say I wouldn't be happy if my yorkie got so cold and wet while I was away Lol !

The picture of the snow covered yorkie on the 'scale of charges' page. Well I assume it is snow - might have suddenly turned grey at the prices!
You can spend, minutes, hours, days, weeks or even months over-analyzing a situation; trying to put the pieces together, justifying what could've, would've happened - or you can just leave the pieces on the floor and move the f**k on.

Hi scampicat,
Good to hear you're up and running.
If you want a snowy picture as the caption says.......get one of a Husky.......people associate that breed with the white stuff. :D
All my best learning experiences start with a problem I need to solve.

People seem to think it is my agency? It is not, we have just been taken on by this agency as sitters, although a picture of my husband with his favourite Hound will be going on the website soon. :D

Wolves hammered by the Baggies in the black country derby today

Looks like Mick is on his way out.

Shame, as he's a top bloke IMHO

Mind you my Villa didn't do much better.

Did you mean me Country?

Wolverhampton Wanderers lost at home 5-1 to arch rivals West Bromwich Albion

As anticipated Manager Mick McCarthy was sacked yesterday

Aston Villa lost 1-0 at home to Manchester City.

As Bill Shankly said to his wife when she said he thought football was a matter of life or death .... "No love, it's far more important than that."

Or as the Liverpool supporter said to his wife when she complained that he loved Liverpool FC more than her. "Listen, I love Everton more than yous"

UPDATE ON HOUSE SALE: (not sure where all the football stuff has come from on this thread!).

The new paperwork has been completed and registration is now complete.

The sale contract has been signed

Now all that has to happen is for the bank to value the property (for the third time ) and make our buyer his formal mortgage offer. His informal offer is still in date. Let's hope they don't change their mind.

I feel sick with anxiety/excitement.

We have also had four house/pet sitting jobs offered by the agency.

FURTHER UPDATE

Buyer has been verbally offered his mortgage. We are now awaiting the formal written offer and then completion .

I know it's not over till the fat lady sings, but she is in the dressing room having her hair and make up done and practising her scales.

Let's just hope she doesn't get laryngitis!

We are in Lady Wulfrun's High Town, given to her by King Ethelred the Unready in the 10th century.

Best of luck with your sale.
