Misha - just a name my husband always liked and she was named as we drove back in the car... Ben - we were not planning to keep him (he was a stray) and I thought if I called him Ben he would respond well to a new Spanish owner (ven aqui = come here).

Kids definitely see the obvious things we've forgotten, or never looked for........***sniff****

Aww, thanks Grammy!! Very true about owners and breeders!! I also think Airedales also can get nippy if they get bored, and they certainly like to show their teeth a lot - sometimes I feel like we live with a crocodile, lol. My sister has one living next door to her in the UK and it just...

Congratulations on getting your Airedale! I agree with everything you've said, they can be hard work, but wonderful too - I don't don't know what we would do without our girl....unfortunately in Spain I've only met one other Airedale owner - thank goodness for the internet!

A Clockwork Orange is my vote - I studied both book and film at uni although I've not seen the whole film version as it was withdrawn in the UK at the time.

We set up our own business and we don't have a shop - the internet is our shop front -so we've managed start up with very little overheads. Because of this scenario we have spent our money on a good web design and more importantly optimisation - trying to get our website at the top of the...

This has been and interesting thread - I've been away too long and missed the meaty discussions!! For me sex is not just about the body - it's all about the mind too - and I wanted to be sure I could share both physical and mental intimacy with someone on a really deep level before I agreed to...

Hey BB, what an awful day - I'm keeping my fingers crossed sargent turns up <<hugs>>

I'm really sorry to hear about Willow, glad you've forgiven Buster though, hugs.

Right now you'll be saying "never again" but you know you will (the drinking I'm mean, not the vomiting!) Anyway, hope you feel better soon, I can't take drink anymore so I know how you feel!
