19170_1432331165.jpg A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself.
When you rescue a dog, you gain a heart for life.
Handle every situation like a dog. If you can't Eat it or Chew it. Pee on it and Walk Away.
"No amount of cajolery, and no attempts at ethical or social seduction, can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred for the Tory Party. So far as I am concerned they are lower than vermin. " Anuerin Bevan:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_19170.jpg |

| I read "The Night Before Christmas" every Christmas Eve. My Grandparents sent me the book for my first Christmas in England in 1974 when I was 2 years old and its been read every Christmas Eve since. I don't have any kids to read it to, so it gets read aloud to the dogs

| How about Christmas traditions you miss? As a wee lad I used to love taking the dog for a walk with my dad late on Christmas Eve. My mind's eye tells me they were all cold, crisp, crystal clear nights and I could hear distant sleigh bells in the stars.
Mum sneaking in a few hours after lights out to fill the stocking at the end of my bed with silly, cheap trinkets. The moment you went downstairs in the morning in your dressing gown and first saw the presents by the tree. Always one 'big' present and a small pile of smaller ones. Never too much, never too little.
After opening the presents, making toast and a brew for breakfast and all sitting round in our pyjamas and dressing gowns chatting and watching Christmas morning telly while someone put all the wrapping paper in a bin bag, and glancing outside desperately hoping for snow.
Grandma insisting we all be quiet for the Queen's Speech. "Merry Christmas, ma'am."
Waiting for the big afternoon Christmas film - ET, Wizard of Oz, etc.
Good times. Very, very lucky to have a great family and once my little one arrives it'll be time to make some traditions of my own.
