    We can't play Uno because it causes too much conflict in my house. I shudder to think of that variant! 😆

    What made you smile today?

    We had a really nice 11th anniversary dinner last night. Went to a local "fancy" pizza place and the food was delicious. It was nice doing the anniversary thing as a family for a change, especially now that Rowan can sit down for a civilised meal. 😂

    Run free Nelly

    Very true. And the associated sleep problems make everything worse as well. Hope you are doing ok Kate, and managing to be kind to yourself.

    Run free Nelly

    I'm so sorry Kate. Nelly was certainly a big personality in a small body and landed on her little feet with you and Paul. 💔🧸

    Mast Cell

    So sorry to hear this Emily. I'm glad Ella is happy and fine, but it's a lot for you and your OH to carry. ❤️ It's so tough as the dogs all get older. 😞

    Labrador Retriever or English Cocker Spaniel?

    Labrador Retriever or English Cocker Spaniel?

    I agree with others, I think Labs are the easier dog once they mature and are over being teenage hooligans. They are calm and steady (mostly) and have an easy care coat that mostly repels dirt (I imagine cockers trap a lot more dirt and leaves, burrs etc). The cockers I've met are mostly lovely...

    Thinking of all our Aussie friends

    The government is already talking about tightening gun controls further, because the older shooter actually had a gun licence and owned a number of firearms legally, despite his son being watched by ASIO (intelligence).

    Thinking of all our Aussie friends

    That said, the more I've learnt about Ahmad al Ahmad the more amazed I am by his heroism. He's a Syrian Muslim and from what I've read a refugee. He was unarmed. A regular dad with young kids. What a hero and Good Person. I hope people don't forget that in all this.

    Thinking of all our Aussie friends

    We are very, very sad here. How could someone attack innocent civilians, including children? And longer term, all this does is provided space for opportunists to try to divide us further.

    Sorry to hear you've been sick, but I get it about being ragers. Love a peaceful night in with the dog! I've turned down our street drinks tonight because I just can't deal with an overtired child after a full day of school and a bit of after-school care.

    Congrats and happy birthday Robyn!! My little boy lost his first baby tooth today! He was stressing out about the wobbling and then we were chatting and it just popped out. 😂

    Doggy brags

    Today we took Chewie to kindergarten drop off for the first time. He is a slow walker and at the start of the year we weren't sure if dogs were allowed into the drop off area (they are and the teachers love it). He was SO good. The duty teacher loved him and said he was very well behaved...

    Stanley is one!

    Happy birthday Stanley! For a one year old Lab to NOT disgrace himself is quite a feat, so well done.

    New collar and lead

    We have had the same Ruffwear lead for an eternity. It's one of the rope ones and is just fantastic quality. Though now that you mention it maybe Chewie needs a new collar...

    Poorly Nelly

    Fingers and toes crossed that she starts to feel better soon.

    What made you smile today?

    Chewie was like this. We did an "adolescent" training class and he always mastered everything really quickly and then decided to bark and lunge at everything and everyone like an over excited jerk. Good times.
