Got to go get my beauty sleep now, nice talking to you Hairybeasty.

No glad I asked always good to know what other folks are up to make's one's own life seem more or less interesting depending..
Pups are deerhoundx collie lurcher at 6 weeks old...not for sale but will take donations for one...

Sounds like a nice mixture......if only I had the room. Already got four myself (two lurchers)

How is the big hairy thing doing??

Twist is fine now thanks being a woos and not liking the rain!
Hows you and yours?

Great ta apart from the snow .We've had it now for 10 weeks not funny anymore.Cant put horses out run the dogs or leave the farm. Tried to this morning in 4x4 but drifts higher than car so turned back. Better get the tractor out...

I've used Immodium on Murphy when he had it a while back. His was from the stuff they put on golf course greens to kill worms, it really upset him, I let it go for 24 hours, starved him, then gave him Immodium, or a cheaper version 99p for 6 tablets, worked brilliantly.

He had a bad bout about 3 years ago, I was working from home luckily, he went outside to pooh and it was like a red tap, awful, then the sicking started, he was shaking so took him to vets, he jabbed him an anti sickness and gave him 'doggy' immodium and it cost me £60, he wasn't even worried that it was bloody diarrhea. Sometimes the blood is from where they either sick or pooh too much and split linings.

Incidentally, I have had the stomach bug from hell this week. Daughter got it last Saturday, I went to work Monday, came home, popped a leg of lamb in the oven at 4pm and by 5pm was in my bed, where I stayed until Wednesday, have never felt so ill in my life. Every muscle and bone hurt and walking the stairs was like climbing Everest. Plus side, I have lost 8lb this week!
But would rather be fat than to be sick. Now the whole family has it, apart from the dogs!

Glad to hear you're back on form.

I must be - Chinese takeaway tonight!

Sorry, totally off topic!
