    Have a great time there, Will.

    By the way, if you were to wander onto the Ducati stand and there's a slimy looking grey haired knob head on the clothing stand - give him a kick in the nuts from me!

    Two guesses who that might be!

    Sad times

    Some of you already know via other social media threads, however just to put you all in the loop after getting home after the last bash, George the spaniel had to be put to sleep. During the time emptying the van he managed to do something to his back leg which looked like a possible severe sprain or dislocation.
    Monday morning saw no improvement so it was a case of whipping him down to the vets for a once over. The outcome being that he was in pain from other conditions like kidneys and liver that it was decided that at almost 15yrs it would be better to let him go and have the long sleep of dogs.
    Will we get another, not sure have to see how things are after Christmas.
    Never argue with an idiot. He'll drag you down to his level & then beat you with experience.

    Very sorry to hear that. The last bash of the year's been followed by some really crappy goings on. Best wishes to all concerned.

    So, so sorry to hear this, Papa.

    Having lost my beloved Brem just 3 months ago I know exactly how you must all be feeling right now. And I know you have been through it previously also. Like Chris, Baldinio, has said a couple of times recently, it's so sad that our best friends' life span is so much shorter than ours. And I know we never truly get over the loss.

    Having met George a couple of times it must be said he was a lovely dog and his little face was so full of expression and so much enjoyed a fuss. And I enjoyed talking with Mrs Cleary about George's exploits.

    My heart goes out to all the family at this very sad time. Rest in peace, George. Your pain is gone now and you can look down on the family who you meant so much to and who gave you so much love. The pain will subside and the happy memories of good times shared will be forever treasured.

    That's a shame mate, I spent a few minutes fussing him at the bash, lovely old spaniel, I've got 3 springers myself and I would be devastated if I lost one, but I know it's part of owning a dog and you definitely did the best thing for him, I bet the house seems very empty at the moment, it's amazing how much of your day they occupy, I look forward to meeting your new puppy at the next bash, atb Daz

    Spent an interesting evening wild camping at the weekend, tried hammock camping for the first time. Of course it would have been better with a bigger fire lots of beer and 30 or so boingeratyers
