It is how I treat all my Girl Friends, doesn't everybody?


Maybe that is where I'm going wrong then.

There is a small old tin oven dish,which probably came from the same place,tech screwed in front of it for my bits and pieces.

Cleaning out sheds isn't really my go,mine needs a good clean out as well.Although i have gradually been giving any work stuff to the boys for storage in their sheds.

Surprisingly,the van goes so much better,and uses less fuel now it has had a clean out.

Yes I agree, losing a dog is akin to losing a friend or close family member & grief can last for a while as you realise they are not there to get under your feet.

Yep, I'm only at the point now I reckon where I could get another dog.
It's only been 10 years

Oh, and regardless of the NSW Govt contacting me a saying I need another license, apparently my Fridgie supervisors ticket covers whatever I have to deal with when (if? ) I go back to work.

I am sure you are aware but it is worth mentioning anyway that since Covid, heaps of people went out & bought dogs for company I suspect so they became scarce (a bit like Toilet Paper if you like) consequently there will be animals out there that people rushed in & bought which already had problems, my daughters Collie being just one but, fortunately she had Previous Owner's/Broker's Guarantees on the dog's health & when something minor arose the saw the vet, got a report & went back to the previous Owner. This turned out ok in the end, she was reimbursed for Vet costs & everything is now hunky dory. It wasn't anything serious but it can happen & the seller was genuinely honest. Re your work experience. So they bloody well should look after you, what would they want otherwise want you, to do your apprenticeship & attend Trade School yet again? Yeah roight. Good days maybe, but you are bit past that stuff these days a bit like many. Could we do today what we all did when we were sweet sixteen.Yes there is such a thing as Canine Broker ffs. Who knew?
