    Close, apart from all of it.

    If you want a fighting dog, or are into aggressive dogs, that’s up to you. BMW 3 or 5 series estates are good for carrying them, and if you google manhood extensions, you might find some help there too.

    Another bit of advice - take a few photos. A friend of mine and his husband have a maltipoo, when they got it as a pup they sent us a picture of it beside a bottle of Hendricks gin. A few months later we get a photo of the same dog beside the same bottle, it’s grown a lot.

    Mrs V is up the hospital with the FIL all weekend, so I get childcare + club runs and providing cuddles.

    At the same time trying to make some sense of the various outstanding tasks and fit a few in the spaces.

    But whatever you do, don't accessorise the dog - no sparkly collar/lead (or skull & crossbones) Train it well so that it walks to heel, etc, and introduce it to your local pubs as soon as possible.
    Also good if you can introduce it to other dogs, so that it gets on well with them. Nothing worse than a yappy dog when you meet other walkers.
    And if it is off the lead and jumps up at my kids, I will kill the dog while you watch and then kill you, and I don't care how much it's a lovely dog really and loves kids. On lead, I'll congratulate you on your nice doggy.

    Heading down to London for a rumble.

    Arsenal v Man Utd tonight, and IPSE AGM tomorrow, will let you guess which is most likely to kick off

    I wanted a german shepherd but got out voted.
    Ah, a Rat on a Rope

    No way you are going to look cool or macho with one of those, although a red spotted bandana might lend it an element of rogiish charm
