We managed to amuse ourselves at the Car-B-Q




At the Car-b-q

Hooligans!



I hope it all went well - I spent the entire afternoon fast asleep, thanks to jet-lag...

Not sure you could eat those doughnuts. Sorry we missed out but the mutt was in a lot of pain with a grass seed imbedded in his paw , not for the first time either. At £300 a pop I think I'm in the wrong trade or use the wrong vet. He's back to his normal self now which I suppose is the main thing.

When we had a dog we used to call it "paying for private medicine". Every little thing got charged for - a bit like the American health system!

I had my old Doberman for over 14 years , he cost us a fraction of what the Westie has cost . Think it was the 4th time he has had a grass seed removed from a paw in 6 years . Think I might shave his legs and paws in future ?

So you think vets are expensive.

Yesterday I had a checkup at the dentist. She suggested that I should have one of my teeth built up.

"How much will that be" I asked.

"I charge £250 an hour and they can take 4 hours, but usually I just call it a round £1000".



I'll suck soup through a straw before I pay that.

Paul G

Eeek! Does the work involve diamond dust or something?

I've never had to pay more than a fraction of that, even for crowns (white and gold).

Can't you make a set of maher so from titanium Paul? We could call you Jaws then.
