cant quite remember where i went in ireland. think it was killkenny (is that a place). we were cycling on tandem. it was hilly and very beautiful..... and wet. went to the most gorgeous campsite on the coast (prob my favourite ever) i must check my old diaries and see where we went). i think we turned off at the 2nd leprachaun on the right and kept going till we reached a pot of gold. only had one pint of guinuess on the whole trip, and no other AL. that was the good old days before the beast bit me on the arse.... talking of which the arse is a bit tender after my calamity with the sun lounger yesterday

ah beautiful, does the springer cross shed loads of hair. the labs are terrible for it, i could make a cushion a week out of the beasts.

Springer sheds more hair than lab/ret. Even though I brush them regularly if he rubs off of your trousers you get white hairs not so with the other guy. We dont let them on furniture or in bedrooms etc though, just as well too.

Ours is a runt and if he lies on his side looks like roadkill.

Greyhounds make fab pets, most people dont realise. A friend of mine has had several over the years, purely as pets. Off to google.

Noo, IG's are small. He chases the odd monitor lizard, and could maybe have a go at a love bird, but couldn't manage a cat....
