[quote CoffeeBeansGalore]@NeedToKnow101 Enjoy your week off! Hope you get better weather than we've had the last 2 weeks. I'm back Monday. May just have to make a chocolate cake to ease us into term 😁[/quote]

Ah thanks @CoffeeBeansGalore - hope so too, I've got a couple of Autumn walks planned so fingers crossed!

@Honeyroar

LOVE your gorgeous St Bernard💕. *@NeedToKnow101* it was Charlotte Sometimes!🌟

When I flew, Elton was on the list of “difficult” celebs. Never met him, thankfully. His husband was even more of a diva, apparently.

I can imagine Elton John being a complete nightmare tbh..

@FlouncerInDenial & @Honeyroar thank you, she was beautiful, fantastic nature & loved everyone. So clumsy as a puppy, she would trip over her own paws as they were massive 😄.

The cat isn't an alcoholic... but is a cold-hearted killer, he's even been known to kill a magpie! (One for sorrow I suppose 😢)

My friend had a st Bernard. He was clumsy too. Got his head stuck in the park gate once and had to be cut out by the fire brigade (basically ran round a corner and into the gate, the gate was usually open and he couldn’t stop in time!)

CoffeeBeansGalore · 23/10/2020 22:04

@NeedToKnow101 Thank you 😊.

Listen as your day unfolds
Challenge what the future holds
Try and keep your head up to the sky
Lovers, they may cause you tears
Go ahead release your fears

There's some folks they got money &
Some folks life is sweet
Some folks make decisions &
Some folks clean the street
Now, Imagine what it feels like
Imagine how it sounds
Imagine life is perfect and every thing works out

00?
Sorry I'll go bed in a minute

(Sorry for posting a lyric before commenting on the puppy, just annoyed I didn't see joy division in time).

Coffee - awwwwwww!!!

You're talking past tense. Is your st b no longer with you?

Needtoknow, I think that's 3 of us regulars who are affiliated in some way to education

Correct @Honeyroar - it's by X-press 2 featuring the legend David Byrne

@FlouncerInDenial Unfortunately we lost her to a stomach torsion 4 1/2 years ago when she was 8. Was heartbroken. Wasn't going to get any more but our remaining dog started pining so we took the plunge & got a puppy (we knew she wouldn't accept an adult) . . .
