Rusty had the stitches out today-he has healed well.Took him for a short walk to the castle,he was off all over the place!!When he has next blood test in December(for liver !) vet will check him over to see all is well in that area!
Sorry your mam is leading you a merry dance-must be very hard to keep your cool at times eh? Have no advice or tips to give on that score,but I can fully empathise with you:)
At the moment I am only dipping into WAB as I still have problems sometimes when trying to reply to threads.I either get timed out or it freezes.I am hoping that as time goes on it will be as it was.Any other website I have no trouble with!!!If you want I can pm my email address,to keep in touch.....

I knew I'd seen a message somewhere but then couldn't find it! Glad to hear that all is progressing nicely but poor Rusty - what a place to have an op - ooh I bet its sore - the poor little dog - give him a big sloppy cuddle from me ...... I dare not look at Facebook or Twitter - I have enough problems and rows here caused by coming on wab - if I started any other place Ian would walk out! Mam is dragging me around by the nose - she's having all her own way and a bag to put it in ..... I keep trying to stop her from being in charge but I can't - she's a little b****r by any standards!!!!!

Hi Pauline,yes I sent you a private message a few days ago...
Mum is ok and been finishing off painting the fence(although I have got to get on hands and knees doing the bottom of the panels:)
Rusty is recovering from an operation to remove a tumour from his ahem-anal region! Thankfully it wasnt nasty and the stitches will hopefully be taken out wednesday.Cant wait to go back out on my regular walks weekend-all we have been doing are road walks!
Its been a hectic few months and thats why I havent been on here so much-that and I have to admit going on Facebook to sort out my nieces farms and fish tanks(games that are addictive lol).That in itself takes up an hour of my time,honestly the things I have to do for them!!!!
Hope you had a good time on your last hol and thank you for thinking of me-its nice to know I am missed:)
Hope your mam is ok,take care
Ellen x

I don't think I've dreamt it but I'm sure I've seen a message from you somewhere ellen and now I want to see it I can't?! I suspect you're still having probs with the comp and may not get this immediately but simply to say despite Clumber and all that razzmatazz I've still got you on the back of my mind ..........

I'm missing you and your friendly messages - is all ok ellen? Just busy? Stilll having comp probs?? All ok with Rusty and your mum? I should be packing (not again? where now I can 'hear' you saying!) its off to Clumber at the weekend for the WAB fungi meet - I was going to say this is the last break of this year but then I've been thinking about a break at the caravan in Nov. . . it will be our last year we think since the site fees went silly - we will pay just one more year and then that will be it - so if I don't go and make use of the van in the next 18 months then it won't have been worth it ......

Still having problems-getting better tho.Hopefully will be back to normal soon. I am on holiday this week and helping mum paint the garden fence!!!! Not with the spray I hasten to add,pretty good to use but wasnt as good as slapping it on with the brush-hoping we dont get rain this week,tho we desperately need it for the garden!Havent had a good downpour for a few weeks....
Rusty is to continue with his tablets for 3 months as they seem to keep the liver stable,tho vet found a lump when I asked her to check his anal glands.She is monitoring that as could be something and nothing-as we say down here!!

I did wonder ellen where you were - its a nightmare when the computer decides it doesn't want to work!! I know how it feels - esp this morning - as I sit surrounded by jobs ............ but I'm not doing them today - I'm still on holiday!!!! More later!

Hi Pauline,just to let you know I am back-had hell of a job staying on site!!!!Hope I am able to stay on WAB for longer than 5 minutes now....
Hope holiday has gone well,speak to you on your return
el :)

Will read up on you hol after this then... Hope your mam is having more good days than bad then.It must be really difficult at times to keep your cool-not easy eh?
Rusty seems a bit better in himself,he has actually gone ahead of me on our walks,something he wasnt doing a few weeks ago-then he was trailing behind me.Ok he isnt as fast as he was but he seems more alert at the moment.Hopefully the tablets will help....
I dont like this sort of weather either.I always say I can get warm when its cold,but cannot get cool when its hot! Its been murder at work too-really hot and stuffy! I have next 3 days off_hooray!_but 2 of them days we are having my nieces to stay.Needless to say they will run me ragged,but its fun too...as long as they dont start bickering,then I tell em to go out in the garden as I cannot stand the sight of blood lol

Finally got down to writing hol account up and as for mam - well she has good and bad days - when she's good its a delight and when she's bad I could cheerfully kill her ......... I don't know anyone else who can get me upside down quite as good as she can! Hope Rusty a bit better now tho I don't suppose the weather will be making him feel sprightly - its certainly doing nothing for me - I gramace when I hear folk saying how nice it is - cos nice and being too hot and sweaty don't sit together with me!!!
