About that fucking cesar advert?

[RhondaJean]

The one with the old man and the westie. And they visit his wife's grave. And then they sit in the sun eating lunch and you know that's his best and only friend.

Every time the bloody thing comes on I see DH after I am dead, alone and with only his little dog for company, except HE IS ALLERGIC TO BLOODY DOGS so he won't even have the dog. And I howl.

We are 37 and 35

It makes me cry too. And ds1 (he also cries at the water aid advert and the save the children one but tells us all he just has hayfever!)

I'd worry about the howling part RJ

Have you found yourself chasing tennis balls or licking your own arse in the last week or so?

How is he with fish? He could drop little bits of his post graveside lunch into the bowl.

He would be fine with a fish, that idea has cheered me right up.

I'm sending you the chiropractors bill for that one worra.

Did you see traffic cops tonight? There was a 91 year old man who was on his way to holland to meet up with his army buddies from ww2. He had no family. He had a crash on the way to the ferry. The police arranged for him to hire a car, he was going to be away for 5 weeks. I had a tear in my eye. The voice over at the end said he died in holland. It was really sad.

No I didn't see that. Oh jeez. I hope he made it and saw his friends.

AtAmber I saw that a few months back

The Police were so lovely and helpful to him

he might buy 100 guinea pigs and visit your grave with them all

Yes. It said he was with his friends. He was lovely, he was planning to do a parachute jump while he was there. At least he was with his friends when he died because he had no one here. (Sob). The police were great weren't they?

He is allergic to guinea pigs too

I know Amber. Finding a 91yr old a hire car and insurance to enable him to drive from Britain to Holland was never going to be easy!

RJ, how about a pet rock?

How about a furby boom?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexican_Hairless_Dog

Would this do him?

Ok we have options

-furby boom (might work but could be noisy in the graveyard)

-goldfish (hard work getting to my grave with it in a bowl)

• hairless dog (he needs to move somewhere warm)

Why is life so difficult!

Oh I missed the rock - that might be best. And cheapest.

He could bring a potato ......how would you feel about a potato?

He could plant it at your grave and it will provide chips for all your grandchildren

He wouldn't have to live somewhere warm. You could buy the dog one of these pet-family.co.uk/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=109

I'm not sure how I would feel about a potato but I am starting to think none of you are taking my distress seriously

Maybe a giant African snail? He would hVe to be careful with salty tears though.
