What a cutie! That over-zealousness is something she should grow out of*, and she'll get the hang of answering the door as well. Labs are really tractable but the attention span of pups dictates the length of training sessions as they grow. *The dogs that are bred for waterfowling and field trial competition are all relatively high strung, and some people kept them in kennels in the belief that they were faster than house pets but we found that an inside dog can have the same edge once they get in the field, and the kennel I worked for preferred to sell to buyers who would keep them as pets as well as hunters or field trialers.

Yellow Lab, right? Not a Golden Retriever... Dogs jumping up on you can be discouraged with a gentle knee in the chest. I trained hunting retrievers in a kennel for a couple of years and while we had almost exclusively Labs we did get the odd Golden. My dog was a black but his mother was a yellow, there were 8 black puppies and 2 yellows in the litter. If both parents have the genes they can have a rainbow litter with chocolates as well. Dogs that haven't moved all day will stir themselves out of the dust to come get a scratch and a pet from me.

I waited... aaahhhhhh.

..and I'm willing to take your word for it. Talked to a member of one of the other bands and apparently they didn't apply for the artist's visa early enough and the backlog of paperwork kept them out.

It's all about hate and frustration, [emoji49] the younger generation with nowhere to go... get with it man.... I listened to 20 seconds to get the address. [emoji3] Now they aren't coming so it doesn't matter, there will still be x number of bands screaming their hearts out. Apparently there was a "visa problem" so I'm guessing someone wasn't admissable to Canada.

Anybody know a deathmetal band from Hull called Black Tongue? They're one of the opening bands in our bar tonight. We've had metal bands from all over the world, but not too many from England. https://youtu.be/rqYE9kYYtkQ

And welcome to the forum.

I'm listening to The Doors, and the guys fishing in this boat are playing it. They're leaving now, and night has fallen.

A Kentish friend in Vancouver has recieved this for his birthday. Don't let the fact that the game pre-dates the common felt marker by several years dampen your enthusiasm... [emoji6]

I'm no good with either but will adopt them out to good homes. I can't even look at a football without jamming my finger. [emoji12] The soccer ball is a Coke FIFA Brazil 2014 souvenier ball. I've found both kinds up there over the years, plus innumerable tennis balls, the odd hackysack, phones, pipes, stolen wallets, packs etc.

Found these up on the roof at work this morning.

Unfair.

Looks like a baby fishing dog.

They didn't even have their nets over the correct side of the boat - needed a carpenter to tell them how to do it.

The sensible part thinks befriend the owner and explore it with him. My other hemisphere just has some bad advice.

If there's nice green grass growing in your swim just thread a blade through the loop and tie a double knot and trim the ends, worked for years before I knew what a bait stop was. 2004: Saskcarp: They'll be shy of the grass, won't they? Buzzbomb: They eat grass.

Those California quail are all over the place where I am, running around like they own the place. If I put out the most simple trap in the world I'd be eating quail every day, but if I got caught they'd run me right out of town.

Burgers were great, the CFL game went to overtime (my team lost) and when FIFA came on the US was already on the board. I'm giving football and beer a rest and sitting on the verandah with a vermouth and lime. Past the step and over the apple orchard and the Sikh temple you can see some smoke. 50 minutes gone, it would be a good game for Japan to win. And then it was 4 - 2.[emoji6] And the US answers immediately! High scoring game here... Vermouth -

I'll bbq a couple of burgers in between my CFL game (which we're winning at present) and the FIFA championship. What a life!

3rd place match now, England vs Germany.

Re: the game, things like uncounted goals, non-goals counted, own goals and unusual rules violations that cost championships are part and parcel of playing sports at a championship level, same as at every other level. Tears wiped, chin up... Better. [emoji106]

Geert Wilders is a doork. They want some evaluating, it isn't all beer and chocolate.
