I had a long haired GSD. She brought home next doors kitten and adopted it.
Never bothered about rabbits or squirrels.
Saw a deer once while walking her and Dammed near pulled me over to get after it

No doubt his Snowdrop was sat tucked up the stores with his feet up enjoying a contraband fry up while Rex was entertaining himself  :smiley-laughing:

SSAs were the one place you ran the dogs free, even the duty RAFP sgt or orderly officer had to confirm both dogs were on leads with handlers before they could enter  :bounce:

The Table-Top Railway is an attempt to create, in British 'N' gauge,  a 'semi-scenic' railway in the old-fashioned style, reminiscent of the layouts of the 1930s to the 1950s.

They seem to be on to pasta and painkillers today. At least that's slightly more sensible.

Painkillers would be very sensible if you're going to resort to wiping your backside with pasta! I'm sure there are better methods than using pasta though even if the bog roll has sold out  :o

In any supposed "Crisis" like this, the two things that are actually the most contagious and do the most harm are Hysteria and Hypercondria...  :uneasy:

Hypercondria - now I've had that...

@Trainfish - when I went to India I was initially surprised to be confronted with a brush and bucket instead of loo roll   :worried:

At Tesco this morning virtually no pasta apart from fusilli (why? ???), only a few rolls of bum wipe and the cold remedies had been decimated. This after we have been assured on TV shelves would be stocked and there was no issue with the supply pipeline.
And finally............................

When we had an initial panic buying spree a couple of weeks ago here in Italy Fuselli and Whole wheat pastas were strangely deemed not required for the forthcoming apocolypse.

Luckily all is calm now shops fully stocked but then in these parts most foodstuffs are from Italy, ans seasonal.


Keep safe you lot
