Happy New Year!

The first 3 hours of this year have been awful so far.

I got home (after a 3 mile walk) from the pub at 2am to find a note on the door. "Bramble (our dog) ran off when the fireworks went off and we haven't seen him since. Dad has spent ages looking for him but had to stop searching. Wake us up if he's by the door"

Sure enough, he wasn't So I've just spent the past hour and a half doing loops around the village looking for him, but to no avail. Looks like he's spending tonight in the rough

The village that I live in isn't very big so he can't have gone far, and I've searched it all top to bottom, twice, so I really don't know where he's gone. What makes it worse is that we just washed him and took his collar off for that, so he's currently missing with no collar. He's well known among the local residents, so I'm hoping someone recognised him in their garden and took him inside for the night. There's a road 200m away with a national speed limit, so I'm hoping he hasn't wandered that far...

Hope you all are having a better 2013 than me!

Crisis over!

He was found by a couple in a taxi on the way back from a party who enticed him into the taxi with pringles, then took him home for the night and phoned the police. We've just got him back safe and happy.

He was found in the next village along that's over a mile away, so he must have really hated the fireworks!

[boohbah]

thats lucky . poor wee thing.
glad he is safe.
i guess your familys new year resolution is to make sure he doesn't get out next year.

 

[tom982]

Yeah, it's such a relief that he's safe. He walked along a mile of pavement next to a 60mph road so I think we've been lucky this time!

 

[Carl Lawrence]

I'm glad that you got your dog back OK. I managed to take Gracie for a longer walk this morning.

We had a shooting in downtown old Sacramento where family and kids gathered for the firework show.
2 dead and 3 wounded.
Seems like you can't go anywhere without some idiot shooting at innocent people.

 

[A Guy]

Sadly, that is so true.

Happy New Year, everyone! May your year be completely BSOD free.

Major bummer about those shootings... I really do wonder if they've at least diminished in ratio to the overall population. There's so many more people around, that there's bound to be more incidents like this reported. I hope it's not on the rise, but instead just given more media attention.

I think I have another cold coming, I've been feeling blocked up and sneezing off and on all day.

Seriously though what's it called in the US? Not imperial surely

We were told we must move to the metric system, aawww ha, I remember it well, there was rebellion to that idea, so it never caught on here in the States., Thank heavens!!!:
