Hiya Pat :-D<3
Give them Cawl, followed by Welsh Cakes... ............. and then give them a Welsh flag to wave :-D ;-)
|
Husband from Essex, wife from London. She's not into sport and he's into football (Arsenal supporter). I don't think they'll be waving a Welsh flag.
We have a new TV, it's huge. Leigh will look huge. The dog keeps looking at people on it, she went crazy the other day a dog was running through a field towards her. She stood her ground and growled with her hackles raised. How do you explain to a dog that the other dog is just a picture :-S :-D
|
:-D :-D :-D
It's a pity they are not showing episodes of Lassie :-D :-D :-D
Pup will be chasing the ball Pat! :-D
