    Aye, they're open.

    Shouldn't it be 'Pets in a Commercial Building?'

    Slightly off topic. I spoke to my ex-wife earlier, she and her partner and my son are at a holiday cottage in Perthshire, and took their two dogs with them. They returned to the house after going out on Hogmanay to find the living room wrecked by the dogs!!! They are now off shopping to replace the stuff that was wrecked.



    Was it wrong of me to laugh?

    Not wrong of you at all, anyone witless enough to leave 2 dogs alone in a strange place whilst heading out for fun deserves all the disaster and ridicule that they get.

    Well done dogs and Jox
    The box said, "Requires Windows XP or better"...

    ... so I installed Ubuntu!

    hope you are not in a hurry to be served in Pets At Home, seems they dont like serving paying customers -- I have waited so long to get fish that I have eventually walked out without my new fish!!!!!!

    I don't go their often, but when ever I have been in their I can't say I have ever had an issue with anyone and the staff have always been helpful and polite.

    At Christmas last year I was leaning on the rail looking at the rabbits in there pen, while I was waiting for Mrs M to get her vitals, when two like minded women started cooing over the rabbits. One of them turned to me and asked me "do you like rabbits" and when I replied " I prefer turkey" I was left talking to myself again.
