Diabetics R Us

Spooky but animals I think have personalities and character so why not spirit what happened could have been your imagination but I think in a world where all things are possible why not have the spirit of your beloved friend return to check up on you and see how you are doing.

Morning all

Just been prepping the veg for Sausage Cassoulet, going in the slow cooker. New recipe, sounds scrummy.

Alan got home from his work trip (jolly) last night with tales of €50 bottles of wine and €50 glasses of cognac, lots of food (so much that he couldn't eat last night ).

Have a good day.

Sausage Cassoulet sounds yummy. If it turns out to be so, will you post a link to the recipe please?

 

[Guzzler]

Or you could get a goat!

Yes, yes, I should go to bed! Bit giddy because of the sudden new dog next saturday

Lol visions of this trundling around Sainsburys.

 

[SaskiaKC]

I just sent the link for that to my friend who raises goats!

@Guzzler if you go with the Husky you could try Urban Mushing:

But seriously, for some unsolicited advice, I would NOT advise getting a Husky. This story confirms what I thought--

Thanks for the links. I had already decided against a Husky though because of the barking, I have elderly neighbours and it would not be fair.
I will probably come home with a Heinz 57 (57 Varieties = Mongrel) but if I do see a Shepherd I will put dibs on him/her.

Exactly what my brains presented me with when wheelchair and new pet merged in my head

Shepherd? A German Shepherd? Or a man that keeps sheep?

Only if he can tackle a blocked drain too.

 

[JohnEGreen]

Had a look at my test results A1c up to 41

 

[Antje77]

Shepherd? A German Shepherd? Or a man that keeps sheep?

I'd go for both.

 

[Bluetit1802]

We had a gorgeous German Shepherd many years ago. Very well behaved and loyal, but OMG she shed her hair, especially the undercoat. I could have knit jumpers out of it all, and was still finding hairs long after she died. They appeared from nowhere. We have since had fine haired breeds that shed very little. Boxers, and now a Boston Terrier, but I wouldn't recommend either of these in your situation - far too boisterous.

 

[Antje77]

Thanks @Bluetit1802. Now I have a picture in my head of you keeping a well behaved, very pretty, but very hairy woman with a funny accent locked up in your shed with your goats.
And I'm about to go to sleep. So don't blame me should I dream of you and your funny ways.

edit: And yes, I know you said sheep. But my brain insists it's goats in that shed with the loyal woman.

There was going to be a witty answer but I changed my mind and go to bed. It's been a pretty rough day.
Still sniggering about all the witty answers I could've written though Goodnight, sweet dreams! (about goats or dogs or pretty shepherds or such )

 

[Guzzler]

Night night all.

 

[SaskiaKC]

Shepherd? A German Shepherd? Or a man that keeps sheep?

The latter would be nice to have around provided he came with a flock.

And a Shetland Sheepdog. And a Shetland pony.

Or forget the shepherd and the sheep and the dog, and just give me the pony.

We had a nanny goat as a pet for years when we had a house with a bit of land. We called her Lilian for some unknown reason. She was free range within an enclosed area and was rather a useful lawn mower and nettle remover. We loved her to bits but not when she came in through the back doors to the kitchen.
