Hello
I hope all is well and had an enjoyable Christmas?

Christmas day I decided to take the dogs out for a long walk in the woods, as I was walking along I noticed a suitcase, when I opened it there was a fox and 3 cubs inside so I immediately rang the RSPCA.The woman on the other end of the phone asked, 'are they moving'? I replied 'I never thought of that but that would explain the suitcase!'

I sat at home all evening studying animals after that, Did you know thousands of Kangeroos die on the road in Australia every year? This really does not surprise me though as there arms are way to short to reach the steering wheel.

I love watching nature programs, you learn so much from them. For instance the duck-billed platypus is a mammal that lays eggs but it also produces milk. This must be the only animal on earth that can make its own custard!

Anyway I wish you a great sober New year and speak again soon!

Take care

Houstin

Happy New Year Houstin

so...If a child refuses to sleep during nap time, are they guilty of resisting a rest?

Well I laughed Dee!

***Happy Sober New Year Everybody***
Last night was rather strange (being sober New Years Eve) I never once thought about drinking but for some reason time seemed to really drag.

I've taken advice from some of my family to 'listen to my heart' in the New Year. I do feel rather daft walking around with this stethoscope all the time though!
And judging by the amount of yummy goodies laying about the house the 'New Year Me' isn't going to start until around March. All joking apart though I've been thinking about joining the gym again this morning, I've had to have a sit down and hoping the feeling will soon pass.
It's a funny old life, last Friday I got told I had a sexy bottom, I haven't have that said to me for a good few years, though it did make my prostate exam all the more awkward! I felt like I was at school again and when My German teacher told me I had failed My German exam, 'Sacre Bleu' I said.
Did you know that 99% of people in this world are stupid? I didn't know this either until I researched it, I'm so glad I'm not in the other 5%.

Have a great day and thankyou all again that have took the time to reply to this thread, if it wasn't for you I would never of faced the real problem of what lay deep inside and certainly wouldn't be here now posting all this stuff, everyone here are pure angels! (((HUGS)))

Take care

Houstin

Love you Houie.

In honor of the New Year and your illustrious comedic presence here, and to counter Dee's gawdhawful pun, I make a humble offering of my very favorite lame joke:

A termite walks into a pub and says, "Is the bartender here?"

ba dum bump

Hello,

Sorry for not writing for a while, things have been pretty hectic here.

My daughters cat has been missing now for 2 days. It's a six year old Ginger Tom and extremely intelligent.

'TIDDLES' if you're readin this please come home!

I like cats and dogs, did you know 99% of people who talk to there cats are mentally unhinged?
Well, that's what my dog just told me.

When I was younger we had a puppy greyhound, I got quite fed up with people at the park asking if I was going to race him. I would take a deep sigh and say, 'I would never win', he's way faster than me'

How have you been anyway? I hope you and the family are well?

It's really cold here now, very icy. The car is covered in frost every day.
My friend rang me ealier and said, 'Windows has frozen' I replied, 'throw some hot water over it that's what I do' he then rang back 10 minutes later and said his laptop didn't work at all now!
The boiler stopped working earlier as well so I called British Gas and said, "My boiler isn't working and my house is freezing cold, even my poor dog is sitting in the corner of the room shivering."
"Okay," he replied, "How long has it been like that?"
I said, "Ever since the boiler stopped working."

Anyway take care of yourself and stay sober. I will write again with more gossip soon.

Houstin

(((Hugs)))

Hi Dee,

Sad to read in the news about the fires in Australia.

Hope you're ok!
