Apologies if I have missed anyone. Let me know if you spot any omissions.

My stepson went travelling to Thailand and Cambodia after his first year of uni and came back quite alive. Is your DD generally sensible (or like her mother?!)

It was Flea. Half points to you and the rogue.

And love, love is just a passing word
It's the thought you had in a taxi cab

70s

Shiny, native new yorker, is it Randy Crawford?

Was going to watch the Serpent, but don't think I'll bother now 😂

@shinynewapple2021

Is your DD at university *@MNerGoneRogue* ?

She was due to be, shiny, but she deferred for a year (so we got to keep her for another year. Yay! An unexpected corona benefit!)

She's not going to be a million miles from honey, so popping by for a bacon sarnie next academic year is not an impossibility

What type of dog FlouncingB?

Somewhere in my Heart was Aztec Camera.

@Honeyroar

Oi. Flea doesn't care about points

Wow, popped off to put the dogs to bed & you are already on page 4!

No, she's nice. Much more like dh than me

@MNerGoneRogue

What type of dog FlouncingB?

That’s the problem. The dogs we really like are completely unsuitable for our lifestyle. I do love a lurcher and we would both love a German Shepherd. Neither entirely suitable given DH’s mobility issues.

I know! And only a few songs posted 😂😂

Is that an adequately sized bed, coffee? Unlike your chair

@Fleamaker123 correct with Native New Yorker , sung by Oddessey.

I think it's been very hard for that age group Rogue, missing out on independence and being with people their own age .

Most of them guessed by me needtoknow

as per

FlouncingB, don't know if this would work for you, but retired greyhounds don't need much exercise.

They're quite high maintenance though rather like your good self

Wise to defer for a year though. I really feel for 1st year uni students.

@FlouncingBabooshka if you are looking for something smaller, I've known some lovely Jack Russells. There was a miniature who was an absolute sweetie. Or if you want bigger maybe adopt an older calmer dog?

Yes, @MNerGoneRogue they are all suitably accommodated.

Yes. I really feel for this generation. The one good thing is that they all think they've got loads of time ahead to do it all.

I do love having her around though (not that I see very much of her. She's either working or doing online chatting with her mates)

Anyone else on here have kids at a similar age/stage?

@CoffeeBeansGalore

Yes, *@MNerGoneRogue* they are all suitably accommodated.

Rather doubts this

A lot of her peer group went, shiny. I would describe their experience as mixed!

We have a Jack Russell. He's a very friendly little dog, clever, but can be naughty.

(Sorry, that was needtoknow not shiny)

My horrendous pup is part shih tzu. Freaking nightmare!

Not bright!

And VERY different from her predecessor, who was a boxer. Don't ask!

My DS is 19. I think he's fared better than a lot of his contemporaries . We have an empty property in the family following death of elderly relative last year, so when it became apparent that lockdown was going to be more than just 3 weeks, we said that DS could move there with his GF . They are both working so have been able to support themselves .
