hi there after not being not able to get on site for a few days its been fine and now trouble again. ive got though to my page just using firefox but its not showing pics.never mind at least i can leave you a message. hope you are well and the dogs. went to a talk wednesday hormones and sunday the tellington touch.we have a few talks done though our clubs do you get anything like that in your area.hows the weather Ash tells me hes getting hot out there.Hes still with his office but is fed up of hostels a lot of friends he has made are now travelling again so hes on his own pretty much.

hello there how are you. I was at a show sat not to good 2x3rd but she is now going out of junior into grad at open shows out of the age class. ch sh she will go into sp yrl but not at all shows meaning either open, p.grad at open shows or grad at ch shows. i had a few days unable to get on site again but it got right again a few days ago . never mind.#ash is still in sydney stopping at the central area there a railway hostel its called.

hi ash is fine he rang sunday to give us a update. hes a bit fed up of hostel life and wants to get a house to stop in but he said hes so fussy and there isnt much around at present hes still doing his little job which keeps him going.He has to go across the water via ferry boat or train to the place on the other side so he has a full day out.He gets back the hostel but at present none of his friends are there . Some have been making visits back at various times to catch up and that hes loved.He has stopped in a lot so hes able to save a little money but if he got a house share it would be more viable.He will have it hard once home as the atmosphere is so different here and with shortage of jobs the future looks bleak. #I dont know what will happen.We are having lots of companies now facing redundancy or long term hardship. Our local is JCB which is well know and of course wedgewoods they are all in a bad way.

Ive got a ch sh sat and one next sunday with willow. will take willow and erin next week.so will see what happens.I trimmed them up ready.The weather here is cold now and most have got there heating on.Good luck on the show front for you.

well as predicted i did nothing at our ch sh. i just dont get a look in to many people faces in our breed. Didnt know the judge either not that that makes any difference.,I dont know what finally won the day i just know willows dad had a 3rd.how did you go on. Today i went a talk with the goldies on behavour problems. the talk lasted a long time didnt tell me much i didnt know just confirmed things id suspected to be honest but it was interesting not many attended and questions off all so i never go mine answered so it was dissapointing.It went on longer than expected so it was a long affernoon after the clock change the body talkes days to get it right.

well i didnt get placed sat . luckily yesterday i got 2 x 2nd with willow.how as your week gone?Hows the weather we are freezing here off and on now. had a bad frost a few days ago and no deicer in the shops i been and finally got some now ready for the next burst.

hi finally seen pic of tara.how lovely a sweet little thing.didnt go any shows this weekend had a rest. got lots of rain. my son has gone camping so ive not spoke to him. It was our anniversay this weekend.

went the hospical monday to see about my arm as its dead on one side.They could help ive to see another specialist for nerve damage it seems my arthritis is nothing to do with it.

not expecting ash to come home until at least aug when his visa runs out.
Ive not heard anything yet from the hospical it will take at least a couple of weeks for the paperwork to get though, i dont expect a app until the new year.
we are now into im a celebrity over here which is over there .I went a show yesterday and got res bob with k . cory was 2nd to her and willow had 2nd.~it wasnt as good as it sounds the dog with bob was only just out of puppy but with willow not looking older and up against it with this well built dog.The dog is nice a irish ,irish. born there.
what sort of job do you do.?
ive found out from ash what job hes doing exactly apart from office work the type of things the company does.
we had a flitter of snow this morning and lots of rain since.

hello there, we are cold here with deep frost at the moment.Having to get my xmas cards done im always doing them last minute and then go and forget a couple.I like to send to all my babies let everyone know im thinking of them.Then all the family ones and friends i get though loads.I know some send email cards now but not everyone has a computor lets face it.
In the old days when i worked before children i did office work. Id been in the car industry my husband is also he works for merc but used to work vauxhall garage and myself i worked for british leyland lets say.Our local garage was at the time part of a group same as my husbands then he got made redundant it shut down completely he was last to leave then got a job with merc garage a couple of years later but we had to suffer before that at the time when the boys came along.The start of the 80s were a hard time. Luckily we came though it only to have this credit crisis now but we may be fairly lucky against others.So i know all the parts on cars ....

hi my site problems are back again so ive been unable to get into my page at all. so im taking this opportunity whilst having received another message on it to do one now. we have what i term as quiet xmas . my m i l does dinner we go there then bring her back up ours for tea. boxing day just the 3 of us then back to normal .sometimes go the sales , shows if ive booked ..
We will miss our ashley being over there , he rang us last year xmas day.
Ive been a few shows not done anything to exciting but ive got 3rd ...
My friend who has a pointer puppy got res bis puppy last sunday won a sack of meal.
The dogs are fine but the cats well i worry over spice hes been very picky, and just not himself since having to loose that tooth back in may time. He ate for a short while after having it out then he went picky and its been difficult and now hes been plucking his fur with constant grooming. i try all and sundry to get food into him.It used to be suger who was difficult but he takes the cake...
or rather doesnt. He used to eat currants out of my scones.

that must be lovely getting to spend time with the little one.i have visited little katie a couple of times thats the one who was ill and its so nice to see her.
when i went a couple of weeks back she is quite big now and is a handfull.
Its something you forget when theyre go up.ill have to put up a pic of her now ive got a couple of nice ones from our visit.#
Im due to go the hospical wednesday i was suprised to get to see the specialist quickly so ill see what they have to say .
Everybody i putting decorations up on our estate now.You can do what we call the blackpool tour if you have children .. Some of the surrounding estates have lights on the houses.We have never decortated outside. Enough putting up a little inside and its when you have to take them down again...
Ash rang us last week hes now in a appartment in sydney Chippendale 5 mins from the hostel if you know it at ...Hes sharing with a american couple till they go and see what happens next.Went of a show yesterday and my friend with her pointer got bis puppy last week it was rbis puppy.

Hi Marie
Well can you believe the Nome litter is 1 year old already (time seems to pass so quickly). Tara was very spoilt for her 1st birthday. Thanks once again for letting us have our little girl she is very much loved in the household.JO.XXX

merry xmas and a happy new year, put some xmas pics on board.

Merry Christmas to you too Marie. The present opening frenzy is now finished (kids and dogs alike). Tara is very well and much loved by all the family. Time does seem to pass too quickly. Love to Grant too and all those lovely redheads. Jo and the clan.

well its a brand new year we hope things improve for one and all.How are your dogs?mine are all well thankfully.Went ch sh friday but nothing doing im off to a open show tomorrow.
Had pics of ash by sydney xmas tree and with santa and in one wearing a santa outfit himself.

hi there hope all is well over there. Ash will have to finish his job soon as hes done 6mths there and im waiting to hear whats next in his plans. ~Only since hes been at a appartment theres no spare money so he doesnt save much ..He now needs something rather soon as he has to finish end of jan..

hi there we have snow at last some might say.otherwise we might not want it.It looks nice children sliding on our hills. Took willow and keely up but i had to leave erin and shadow at home i cant walk them together its hard on foot.You forget when youre used to the car.Had the car of the road a coupleof days last week so that was a pain and i had to walk them then.I took 3 but the frost it was again slippy.Hope all is well with you and your gang...

i was wondering how it was going with everything and i understand about watching the news it must be the hardest thing.It being so cold here we are waiting to have some sun and there its too much.
Ive been so ill this week and had to cancel lmy appointment at the hospical i had Gastro Enteritis and cannot remember beingso bad for a long time so ive seen the news quite a lot lying in bed.
The poor animals in that heat must be exausted and so thirsty.I hope you go on all right and keep on top of things.We are all thinking of you huggies for the brood from us all...

i went the hospical and hoped id find out more but my results have been lost so im waiting for them to find them at the present..
Ash is due to finish the job he has been doing this week im hoping he gets another lined up.hope things are improving out there after the fires..
