Hurrah for Annie the Wonder Dog!
On the doggy theme, we've just returned from Taylor Park where DD1 was kindly relieved of her chocolate biscuit by a dog the same size as she is. People with the dog - man, woman and toddler - seemed unconcerned and carried on stolling along (about 20 yards away) even though I called to them asking whether it was their dog. When their second dog made a move towards DD2 I shouted at it and was then told I was a "moody b*". Both DDs were crying as soon as the first dog came uncomfortably close. Why on earth didn't these imbecciles call their dogs away? I know my DDs are almost unreasonably scared of dogs but I am quite fond of them and was still shaken. I expect people to have the same control over their pets as they do their children when out and about. DDs were terrified. This, in St Helens where 4 yos don't have a great track record with family pets. Sorry but I am absolutely fuming!

Browny - wow on the scan piccies. Even the 2-D one is really clear for 12 weeks. Glad everything is going ok. Hope you are feeling a bit better.
BLs - surely you mean £25-30 on petrol each way to Cardiff. I used to do the trip all the time with work so I know how much it would cost to go by car. Unless you made the journey in 1985, there's no way you could do 400 miles on £25 with petrol costs these days. Obviously I'm trying to find the cheapest way, National Express or whatever!
Sightseeing not a problem, as I've said, it would be a girly night out visit with ex- colleagues. It's just getitng there that's the problem.
A-ha, Ei, I've just spotted that you said it was £32.50 return for you and DH...wow. Might look into that train thing again, it would be just me travelling. If you're headed down again sometime and want to share petrol costs, give me a shout.
Hope everyone is raring to go for Bingo. I will be getting stinking drunk as just found out that I'm not pg again (though AF kept me waiting for nearly a week).
