    I had to take my cherryade next door to see if he could get it open. I was going mad trying to get the top off and looking up the price of Bullworkers .. We ended up having to use an adjustable spanner. :D

    Nut crackers work every time for me :D

    Can't believe Lewis got Pole, going to be good tomorrow.

    Missed it myself, will look to see if i can find it somewhere.

    Edit.
    It's on at 1pm

    i Just watched the qualifyig rerun, was surprised that Hamilton got Pole, but not as surprised as Vettel not running in the last session and Webber stopping on the track in session 2 :eek:

    does your neighbour know thats what you call him :D

    i once couldnt get the cap off something, i wedged a knife under it, not a good idea..i nearly sliced my knuckle off....needless to say i havent done it again

    I wedge mine in the door frame, or put a spoon underneath the lid and it works well.
    Fray bentos pies are a different matter. Nothing seems to open them and they destroy can openers.

    It will be absolutely fine i promise. Cans dont really go "off" unless they are dented. All you need is a sledgehammer to open it. :D

    Good Day Fellow Lurkers :)

    I hope whoever is watching can move quicker than a meerkat.


    Weightwatchers meals? I wish I could ban this bloody brand.
    The only thing that makes it low calorie is the tiny portions, and they are fattier and more sugary than many, with not enough protein or other nutrients.
    Who in their right mind would serve up a tea-spoon of chicken in a home cooked meal? Yet some of these ready meals only have that amount and nobody thinks anything of it.



    I think you handled the shoving in woman exactly right. I often use the "did you mean to" routine because it gives them a chance to back down gracefully (otherwise i might smack them one )




    Salt water might help it. Eye licking is a chihuahua feature but i think its revolting.
    Oh dearr... Actually after a diet of oats twice a day I find them rather filling! I usually add a mixture of mushrooms, yellow peppers and courgettes to the basic meal, yum.
    Blossom, my soul mate and a very important dog in my life is now on antibiotic drops - the v e t was very impressed with the eye which had got a lot worse over night.:(

    You just knew what was gonna happen.
    I had a cat once who used to sit & watch tennis, he would run round the back of the TV looking for the ball every time it went out of shot. :D

    They wouldn't be watching them 24/7.......would only take seconds for the others to turn on him. :(

    Ignorant cow! Good for you.
    I'm more concerned you're buying weightwatchers food. It's been proven these items have a higher content of sugar than ordinary foods! :eek: HERE

    :confused: Why constantly go to the vet for minor ailments, the vets must be rubbing their hands with glee when they see you! Make up a saline solution yourself & bathe her eyes. Make sure you use a different piece of cotton wool for each eye (to avoid cross contamination), you can keep the solution in the fridge & use it as required. 3/4 times a day should be sufficient.
    very true Sr :( I didn't think of that...
    Trust me, I don't rush to the vet for minor ailments. It's just that 5 dogs, 4 of whom are not in the first flush of youth tend to get more significant things wrong with them, and physical disability prevents me from being able to cut claws etc.
    I once tried the salt water treatment on one of my Yorkies, and vowed never to do so again when he developed a massive corneal ulcer.:( which took weeks to clear up. Blossom's eyes are very, er prominent, and I didn't want to mess around just before the weekend.

    Oh poor blossom. What happened? Was it a scratch from a claw?
    How old are they all? I didn't know you used to have yorkies apart from the legendary and sorely missed Arthur. :)


    Me three for Lakeland. :cool:

    Lewis did amazing, getting them pole, first pole for a long time.
    The tyres seem to be a problem, you can only get 1 test run, something wrong surely.
    One had a fuel blockage, tough luck, should be a good race tomorrow.

    I have done that many moons ago, we have some gadgets for removing lids off various items.

    I'm not sure - the whole thing was swollen up and appeared very red when prised open. She probably transferred something from her paw to her eye. The vet checked her for a corneal ulcer, which she didn't have, thank God!
    The oldest 3 are all much of an age, and will be 7or 8 this year I should think, without looking it up, and Phoebe is 5. I had 3 Yorkies before the chihuahuas and a few other dogs in my youth:)
    It just wasn't possible to find any chihuahuas for sale locally. until the arrival of the internet, but Yorkies have always been available.:cool:

    I was thinking of Phoebe as a puppy, but the time has flown. I wonder if JoJo's family have their Pomeranian yet?

    Good evening folks :)

    Sam and our friend Bill are jointly laying the trail for the run tomorrow so Bill's wife, Pam came here and then we all went out for a meal at a fish Taverna.
    We had some amazing salt cod, Kalamari and whitebait.

    They were an hour into trail-laying when they found themselves on top of a cliff which was impossible to scramble down so they had to redo the whole trail and Pam and I had plenty of time to catch up.She winters in Florida so I havn't seen her for 4 months.

    I am just enjoying a cappucchino and about to watch some T.V.
