We usually only have around 2 hours per day together during the week, with her working shifts being 16 hours. It was during one those 2 hours that we discussed the research. June, might I suggest an English Coonhound? They say a dog takes after its owner; which is your buddy breed?<br /> From Wiki - “Like all Coonhounds, English are generally good natured and very sociable dogs. They are strong willed, if not stubborn, and require more patience in training than other breeds”. </p> http://www.anorak.co.uk/forums/topic.php?id=3824#post-24865 Wed, 25 Nov 2009 13:08:32 +0000 Bat E Bird 24865@http://www.anorak.co.uk/forums/ <p>This should cheer you up then Percy</p> <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tgbNymZ7vqY&#38;feature=player_embedded" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tgbNymZ7vqY&#38;feature=player_embedded</a> </p> http://www.anorak.co.uk/forums/topic.php?id=3833#post-24864 Wed, 25 Nov 2009 12:39:05 +0000 Bat E Bird 24864@http://www.anorak.co.uk/forums/ <p><a href="http://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/news/4758387.Hollie_Steel___s_single_a_hit_for_Christmas/" rel="nofollow">http://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/news/4758387.Hollie_Steel___s_single_a_hit_for_Christmas/</a> </p> http://www.anorak.co.uk/forums/topic.php?id=3824#post-24863 Wed, 25 Nov 2009 08:52:16 +0000 Percy Stilton 24863@http://www.anorak.co.uk/forums/ <p>Thanks for that Cheryl, I could'nt help wondering as I was watching Freddy perform on this video how original,exciting and electrifying he was and how ,by comparison, Cowell's corny,contrived, karaoke style, sterile acts can never compete with this... like SuBo &#38; Simon...they leave me feeling cold.... simply said...they have no seX-Factor.... </p> http://www.anorak.co.uk/forums/topic.php?id=3832#post-24862 Tue, 24 Nov 2009 19:02:01 +0000 June 24862@http://www.anorak.co.uk/forums/ <p>Forget golden retrievers?????????????????? sod that </p> http://www.anorak.co.uk/forums/topic.php?id=3824#post-24861 Tue, 24 Nov 2009 18:40:34 +0000 Cheryl 24861@http://www.anorak.co.uk/forums/ <p>That one is not playing.

However, I think they are that way because of their upbringing. Mother takes care of them when little, mother cleans the house, mother fixes the meals, mother buys their clothes...in essence mother runs the house and mother waits on them and Dad 24/7. They grow up and expect every women to be just like Mum and wait on them hand and foot and take care of the house and children. Today with high costs the majority of households have both parents working. Who takes care of the children? Mum does, she drops them off at daycare, school or whatever and off to work. She picks them up after work, goes home cooks dinner, does the dishes, helps with the homework, gets them off to bed. After his day at work, the man sits and reads the paper, watches TV, has a beer or martini or whatever and his day is done. I use to listen to the young mothers at work all the time talk about their homelife and watch them rushing from work off to their second job that was just beginning for the evening. </p> http://www.anorak.co.uk/forums/topic.php?id=3827#post-24854 Tue, 24 Nov 2009 15:29:26 +0000 Charlie.chivers 24854@http://www.anorak.co.uk/forums/ <p>Money-Money-Money, Its a rich man's world. </p> http://www.anorak.co.uk/forums/topic.php?id=3831#post-24853 Tue, 24 Nov 2009 15:27:39 +0000 June 24853@http://www.anorak.co.uk/forums/ <p>Oh I thought it was the Pits..... </p> http://www.anorak.co.uk/forums/topic.php?id=3827#post-24852 Tue, 24 Nov 2009 15:20:57 +0000 Yampster 24852@http://www.anorak.co.uk/forums/ <p>The one's who shot him did a good job.

I awoke this morning not feeling well, with what could be described as flu-like symptoms; headache, nausea, chills, sore eyes, etc. From the results of some initial testing, I have unfortunately tested positive for what experts are now calling *Wine Flu*.<br /> This debilitating condition is very serious - and it appears this is not an isolated case.<br /> Reports are flooding in from all around the country of others diagnosed with Wine Flu.<br /> To anyone that starts to exhibit the aforementioned tell-tale signs, experts are recommending a cup of tea and a bit of a lie down.<br /> However, should your condition worsen, you should immediately hire a DVD and take some Nurofen (Nurofen seems to be the only drug available that has been proven to help combat this unusual type of flu).<br /> Others are reporting an English breakfast fry-up or a McDonald's Happy Meal can also help in some cases. If not, then further application of the original liquid, in similar quantities to the original dose, has been shown to do the trick.<br /> Wine Flu does not need to be life threatening and, if treated early, can be eradicated within a 24-48 hour period. *</p> <p> *NOTE: If you find you are complaining a lot, it may be that it has mutated into Whine Flu. This is particularly common in men. </p> http://www.anorak.co.uk/forums/topic.php?id=3827#post-24836 Mon, 23 Nov 2009 16:48:02 +0000 Yampster 24836@http://www.anorak.co.uk/forums/ <p>If you are going to kill the wrong man, make sure he comes from a poor country</p> <p><a href="http://uk.reuters.com/article/idUKTRE5AM2R520091123" rel="nofollow">http://uk.reuters.com/article/idUKTRE5AM2R520091123</a> </p> http://www.anorak.co.uk/forums/topic.php?id=3826#post-24835 Mon, 23 Nov 2009 16:42:00 +0000 Yampster 24835@http://www.anorak.co.uk/forums/ <p><a href="http://web.orange.co.uk/article/quirkies/santa_clauses_demand_swine_flu_shots" rel="nofollow">http://web.orange.co.uk/article/quirkies/santa_clauses_demand_swine_flu_shots</a></p> <p>So that's two mince pies, a glass of sweet sherry and a box of Tamiflu </p>
