    Lol Mike, you’re not wrong there

    The programme was Leverage - it on Fox and very lighthearted

    I've not watched that in ages! It was very strange seeing Jane from Coupling being intelligent!

    Frustrating, irritating. And I’m feeling it a bit - far too much stress for my mind and body to handle recently. Still, Katie had a telephone interview today and they’ve asked her to go in at 10am tomorrow for a face to face interview, which is fantastic.

    We had a good family talk this evening about getting another dog. We’ve decided not to - Polo will be 12 in April and it wouldn’t be fair on him to have to cope with a young dog. There’s a particular greyhound at the kennels that has been with them for 18 months and we’d have loved to give her her forever home, but we have to put Polo first

    Could you not take on this young greyhound for a trial period to see how Polo got on with him/her they may get on like a house on fire, just the thoughts of a cat person miaow

    Edit: Just read this young dog is a her so Polo might love a young lady to look after

    Lol Mike. We did think of that but at best Polo’s got probably 18 months, he’s got severe arthritis in his hips, nerve damage to one leg and is basically a grumpy old man. Any younger dog wouldn’t get the walks she needs and her playmate is unlikely to want to play

    We weren't sure when we had Casey, but she just trained every other dog we ever came into contact with! I can understand why you wouldn't want to, maybe they have a middle aged one who might be a better fit?

    Tbh, at the moment I don’t want to fall in love with another one, itms.

    I got to work earlier, my boss (and friend) asked how I was and I promptly fell to pieces on her shoulder

    Anyway, brighter news! Katie had her face to face interview this morning. The Sales Director told the recruitment consultant that Katie’s a superstar. She’s meeting one more person Monday, but it’s looking really positive. She’s chuffed to bits.
