I'm sure she will grow out nicely to fill her boots.

Or just explode upwards.....lol

I’m reminded of the Morcambe and wise special with Brutus the dog behind the curtains.

I love a good long walk and I love my dogs, but we've always had whippets which don't want to go the distance. A couple of miles and they wanted to go home, less so if it's cold!

About 16 months ago we lost my best whippet mate, and a couple of months ago we got this nobhead from a rescue thinking that she "was mostly sighthound":

A tiny, meek little thing when we got her, 4.2kg!

Turns out she was just hungry, not a sighthound at all 😂 DNA says she's mostly Collie, closely followed by German Shepherd, and some other stuff that's keeping her small. Nowt like any dog we've ever had, and absolutely not what we'd have chosen, but she loves to walk. Walk for miles!

We reckon she's 7 or 8 months old now so I can take her for a good mission:

This is her after 12 miles walking today - took her off lead out and about for the first time, and we did a couple of miles, she kept close by and was no bother.

Sorry to bore the non dog people, but I'm proper happy to have a new walking partner. 

The best part of walking is going with a dog

Not something you expect to find on Marketplace...

Unrelated question, but what do you use for browsing Bulgarian tat? I tried cars.bg and olx.bg, and this doesn't look like either.

Not so much the joke but that Pinterest has taken to serving up all jokes in Swedish.

 

[Rightnider]

Yes, I used to live in Sweden, but Pinterest should not be aware of that.

Watching my youngest son play the piano in front of hundreds of people at his school Advent Carol service tonight, certainly made me grin. Note perfect and a proud Dad🙂

How old? I did stuff like that when a kid, nervous to start but repetition got rid of most nerves over time. Ended up semi-pro.

He’s 14 and hated every minute of it. He’d love to get to your level though.

Anyway, now we have to gang up on @hairnet for continuing to diss Donegal😉

He loves playing just very nervous as it was his first time with an audience other than family.

My first public performance was aged 11, in the Town Hall. After that, stages were a piece of piss, from our bandstand to Kempton Pk and the Cafe Royale

Fair play, that’s impressive. My Dad used to play in pubs in Dublin, even recorded a record, so I’m hoping he’s got his talent from him.

You need to go back in the spring/summer/autumn and get out of the car/ off the bike🙂
