1. I have been alerted by those lovely people at Fuelmyblog about PAW.
I hate buying presents for kids. Not because I hate kids – some are quite nice, from a distance – no, it’s because I never know what to buy them and I hate wasting money. Actually, I hate spending money, it doesn’t grow on trees you know – except the very rare lemon flavoured dime that can be discovered in as yet undiscovered places north of the Thames.
Anyhoo, check out the PAW site for a great way to solve a LOT of problems – very clever!
2. I know that there are a few deranged avid readers who hail from across the pond and that they live in lovely areas.
Check out the Fresh Air Fund who arrange holidays for kids who live in New York City to try out different environments and give them a break. They still need some hosts for this year. Obviously I would take loads but luckily I live in ‘Old’ England *phew* [followed by a quick tee hee just in case somebody doesn’t share my sense of humour*].
3. The DP Retirement Fund does not yet exist but any donations are very welcome. I need teeth, a spare spare wooden leg, some llama fodder and a never ending supply of shin pads – thank you.
*Please note the correct spelling of ‘humour’.

(I see the PAW site features Bumblebee Conservation… is this a consequence of the activities of a character featured in the 6th History lesson? Lo, TG Ed)

Tis Sunday, and all who read blogs,
are ‘minded to help kids (and dogs?)
DP’s post is a good’un,
he wants a leg that is wooden,
and help building new homes for frogs

I want a frog party!!! [so long as there aren't any kids there - tee hee]
you sound like a demanding child DP ‘I want’?? tut
I can stamp my foot and pout …. if necessary ……
…and dogs
yes! thank you
Quite right Nooter – doggies need a break as well ….
very good old chap….
I believe you have loads of room at the cliff top residence to accommodate heaps of kids …. I am sure that there are plenty in the UK that would love to see the sea at such close proximity …
leave it with me I will sort out the charas.. its ok no need to thank me
Unfortunately I’m out …… whenever necessary …. [what is/are 'charas'? - Spanish maids?]
it’s ok just leave the key under the plant pot!
[chara short for charabanc]
I used to call them ‘toast racks’ [the open topped variety] ……. ah, those were the days ……
Spanish maids! You had his hopes up then 70s.
hee hee it doesn’t take much lol
I think he dreams of working in a gingernut factory staffed entirely by Goddesses and managed by Uma, hang on a moment, that sounds quite good!
Exactly ….. I could be the taster ……. ahhh, heaven …….
@ 70’s – The resident child couldn’t take the competition – he hates sharing his toys, and never lets other kids play in his tree house.
Children never play properly ….. including yours …..
well i went to that paw site and it was not at all what i was expecting. talk about bait and switch
Do you sometimes get the feeling that humans aren’t that switched on to the needs of the canine population? ….. you’re the dog that can change all that!!!!!
Makes me wonder what YOU were like as a kid. Or perhaps I’m better off not knowing.
You can have my kids. They’re very well behaved…especially when they’re asleep. ;-P
Or I can just get you some awesomely cool shin pads. You’d probably look even better in them than she does.
I was a delightful child ….. full of charm, warmth and cocoa ….. the b******t arrived later – tee hee. I’ve seen your children – they look quite nice ….. from a distance …… Mum’s quite nice as well …….
I contribute daily to the health, care and well being of a little 5 year old girl and a 2 year old boy. Granted, they are mine, but doesn’t that count for anything???
I’ll let you know in a few years time …… they last for ages you know ……. mine are a mere 41 and 42 …. and still a delight ….. in many ways ….
[Gawd - I'm depressed now ......]
There’s no way yours can be 41 and 42. Why, going by looks alone… that would mean TG was a mother at like, 8 or 9 or something like that. For shame DP… I’m sure that’s illegal even if you are across the pond!
The TG creates her own speed of time …… unfortunately it hasn’t affected the toll on me ….. *sigh*
If you pawse a moment, you will find a little pressie for you on my blog.
Archie!!!!! ……… whooooooooooosh ………..
Would you say I’m quite nice from a distance. Or am I the spawn of Satan!
You might be both I suppose ….. still, your Mum’s very nice [although her obsession with Hugh Laurie is a tad unsettling]
You think Mom’s nice? Try living with here for almost fourteen years….
Is that a hint it’s your birthday soon young Evan? ……..
No. It’s in about 5 months…
Must be near Christmas then ……
aw DP said the ‘C’ word!!!
I’ll be saying another ‘c’ word in a minute …… censored!!!!!! – tee hee
Yeah. It is near “the C word.”
Your must get a lot of presents all at the same time ….. or not ……..
No. My mom gets me the things then gives me half on C-word, then the rest on my birthday.
Why am I ‘across the pond’. Makes me feel like one of those distant relatives you talk about behind their back at family reunions.
Oh…Eurlways doing that though. (gigglesnort)
I have no idea John – why don’t you move over this side? ….. it’s quite nice in many ways ….. the TG lives here for a start ….
I could…consider doing a ‘blog like a hermit’ site. Has TG ever had a hermit on her property before? Are there chickens for the extra egg to be bartered for my services?
Oooo …… there’s an idea – tame hermits are usually reserved for posh people …..
I’ll remember not to use starch on your sheet-shirt, sir.
You’ll have to keep your feet clean as well if you come into the house …….
