I love most animals. I have done RDA Dressage, but can't afford to horse ride now. I currently have one guinea pig, one dog and two rats. I volunteer at an Animal Shelter just one day a week. Have had extra training to be able to deal with more dogs. Have just finished a course and now have my certificate - Certificate In Pet Dog Ownership.

1 AnswerDrama6 years agoWhere do I write to John Nettles actor?
I went onto yahoo and all I got was a place that will give his agents name but I had to be a subscriber. I don't want to pay to be a subscriber as he is the only actor I want to write to. Does he have a fan club? Or can I get a letter directly to him. I am not a stalker or some sort of weirdo, I just miss seeing him on the box. They are running repeats of Bergerac, but I prefer him older as in Midsomer Murders. I want to tell him how much I like his work (what little I have seen of it) and maybe get a signed photo signed to me not just one with his name on it. Does anyone know where to write to, and not just to his agent as I will have to pay to be a subscriber. Thank you.

When I was selling some stuff in the Retail Shop I must have sold my net by mistake. They haven't got one in the shop and they don't have it in the catalogue. How do I get another net? Please help. There are loads of butterflies but I can't catch them without a net.
1 AnswerVideo & Online Games7 years agoI have been watching the space staion go over my garden?
I have heard with binoculars one should be able to see the shape of the station. I have 7x50 binoculars and I can't see the shape. Is this just my sight or are my bins not strong enough. If not, what strength do i need. I said when I bought them I needed binoculars for birdwatching and astronomy, and was told that these were good for both. I can't afford a telescope, so I thought binoculars would be a good 2nd choice.
4 AnswersAstronomy & Space7 years agohow does one trim a Lhasa Apso?
I don't want him sheared with clippers down to the skin just shortened a little without the scissor marks. A few years ago with my Shih Tzu I managed to do it so that people thought he was a puppy,ie they coulldn't tell he had been trimmed. But with my Lhasa one can easily see the straight bit where I have trimmed him, although I did just a few hairs at each time. I want to still be able to groom him but with the hair a little shorter..Can anyone advise please?
1 AnswerDogs7 years agoIs it possible to put buttonholes on an already handknitted sweater?
I have already knitted a sweater and instead of sewing on snap fasteners (press studs) I wondered if I could put buttonholes into the sweater. i know I can't cut it as it will unravel. And making another sweater, the band with the buttonholes is the one that i will have to cast on the stitches, and hence is made last and sewn under the other one. I will not know where the buttonholes need to go. Unless of course, I make one the same size as the one just knitted. And I need to make all different sizes. I heard somewhere that there is a way and i have gone through loads of sites and haven't found one that i like. There is one or two where one puts interfacing on the back or ribbon round the buttonhole then cutting it. I don't like the idea of cutting it and I heard that the French have a simple way, but I haven't found it. I just need a simple way without sewing material onto the sweater. the buttonband is just at the top of the back of the sweater - about 3 1/2 - 4 ins. Please help if you can, I hate sewing on snap fasteners.
2 AnswersHobbies & Crafts7 years agoI have just ordered a now tv box?
Once i had ordered it I was told that I had to join to be able to use it. I don't want a load of movies, or sport, just catch up tv, and the odd movie - one a year maybe or one in 3 years.I have seen one movie advertised that I would like to see when it comes to tv - the first one in over 30 years that I have really wanted to see. Why do I have to pay a subscription. I thought having the box was a way to get catch up tv without paying a subscripton. If I pay the suscription for one month, then cancel it, can i carry on using the box.

1 AnswerAbuse and Spam7 years agoI want to delete dogs and start again.?
I enjoy playing Nintendo dogs on my DS Lite. When I first got the game I could delete the data and start the game again, from the beginning. It will not do it now. I have another Nintendo dog game and that won't either. I can hold all the buttons as it says to do and nothing happens. Is there another way to do this. On other games there is an option to have "New Game", but I haven't seen this option on the dog games. One can "donate a dog", but not if you still have one left, and that is not starting back at the beginning again. I have just got a Nintendo 3D XL. The old game will work on the new machine, but it won't do it either. There is a "moveable button" but I just went for the other buttons, that are also on the Nintendo DS Lite, and again, nothing happened. Please help me, is there another way to play "New Game", on either console. Thank you.

3 AnswersHobbies & Crafts8 years agoI've learnt that daily garlic can damage a dog's kidney, is this the same in humans?
I have been using garlic (1200 mgs) as flea and worms preventative but was concerned when the vet told me that this can damage a dog's kidneys. So, on advice I am giving my collie it for 5 days then 2 days off, and my lhasa on Mon, Wed and Fri (as he is obviously smaller). Katie the collie loves it and takes them as her daily treat, but is puzzled why she only gets it for 5 days now instead of 7. I started taking it as a health benefit at about the same time. My dogs don't seem to have any symptoms, but I have. Is this usual for humans or just with dogs. I take the 1200 mgs a daily too.
3 AnswersDogs8 years agoI love grooming my Lhasa Apso but there are a couple of things I am having trouble with.?
one thing is the tail. He is trimmed so the hair isn't long apart from his tail. I brush it thoroughly and comb it and it looks lovely then he wags it a few times and it looks as though it hasn't been touched. The other thing is the "tear stains". I know one can't get rid of them altogether, but there must be something I can do. I've tried just water, I am a bit worried about using soap. It may just be to keep it trimmed but I have only had him 4 weeks today and I don't want to worry him by taking scissors to him so soon, although I have got some special ones for paws and face. There must be ways to sort these problems out, after all they look lovely when being shown. I don't want to show him, well, not in the "showy" classes, I may take him in one or two pet classes at small country shows. But I want him to look and feel as beautiful as he can be. Advice please.
2 AnswersDogs8 years agowhere can I buy knitting patterns for patterned cardigans with raglan sleeves for prem babies in 4ply or DK?
I can find plain cardigans, but I like knitting stitch patterns and I can find loads with set-in sleeves but I like raglan which seem to be out of fashion at the moment. I can find free patterns but not to buy and I would prefer to buy rather than sit at the computer to knit, as I cannot print off at the moment. I hope someone can help as I am getting fed up making the same things time after time. Thank you

1 AnswerDrama8 years agoTHIS IS VERY SCARY AND I NEED HELP?
I have coughing fits, at any time of day or night. I have to try to do several things at once : use my nebulizer, sip a cold drink, blow my nose and suck a "hot sweet" ie fishermans friends. It comes on so suddenly that when it wakes me up or if I am already awake makes no difference. It goes something like this : cough cough gasp cough sip cough cough gasp swallow cough gasp cough. And each time I wonder if this is the one to end it all.When I go to the gp for a chest related problem i tell them, when i go to see a registrar at the hospital I tell them too, but they don't seem bothered. Maybe they think I am exagerating as I am sitting there with them not lying on a slab. I have now started putting the phone handset on the bed beside me, but whether i would realize in enough time to call any one - I don't know. I need some advice firstly how to stop them happening and then if they do happen how to minimise the time and the toll it takes on my body. With the incessant coughing there is another unpleasant accident that may occur, so hope I am always at home when it happens.
2 AnswersPsychology8 years agoJust thumbing through some knitting magazines I saw some patterns but now I can't find the magazines.?
One patters was for knitted childrens mittens but they were finished at the top with an animal head, I think they just had dog and cat. The other pattern was for a log cabin styled blanket. I am not sure of what magazine it was or which issue. It was quite recent but the log cabin blanket was further back than the mitts, I think. Can anyone help please. Am willing to reimburse any reasonable charges. They were in two of the monthly knitting magazines.
1 AnswerHobbies & Crafts9 years agoI had one girl guinea pig left and I trained her to come when called.?
She was an older pig, at least 8 years old. She was on her own and I wondered if this was the reason that she could be trained. She came to the door of the hutch to get a treat or to get a fuss and sometimes to be picked up to put in the run. Now she has gone and I don't really want to compare them, but I now have two boys. Abyssinians quite a hardy and active breed. I wonder if these could be trained the same way or if it would make a difference in that they have each other. They are over a year old and very nervous. I could always entice my girl Sanderling with her favourite treat - dandelions, she liked the flower and the leaves. But after a while she would come to me with no bribery, I just called "Come on then " or just called her name and she would willingly run towards me. First i just gradually got her to come nearer for the treat, then I could extend my pinky to tickle her under her chin while she was engrosed in eating. Then after a while I picked her up and put her in the run and a few days later she was coming to me when she was in the run, even if it meant her going back to the hutch. My two boars Clover and Parsley are really nervous and when I do get hold of them they squeal "murder". This is odd for me as for years, my guinea pigs haven't squeaked. I had boys and girls but they didn't squeak. These boys have been with me for less than a week and they already know the rustle of the veggie bag. Is it possible to train these two nervous guinea pigs to come when called, or is the fact that they've got each other going to be a problem. They give me the run around whether they are going from hutch to run or run to hutch although the former is easier as the run is more open than the hutch.

2 AnswersTiVO & DVRs9 years agoI always knit a lot, but have started having pain in my right wrist?
I have a gel to put on and I use a magnetic wrist strap and I can take Paracetamol Plus tablets (paracetamol and caffeine). I also crochet, and do a little cross stitch and very occasionally do a little tatting. I didn't sleep at all last night so I have done a little more knitting and playing on my DS. Can anyone give me advice on how to keep wrist pain away or is it just my age (just a little over 58 1/2 yrs)If I try to stop knitting I am so bored I don't know what to do other than eat, and I'm fat enough as it is. From time to time I have pain in my little fingers and have been advised to keep knitting!! I have tried the continental style of knitting where the right hand takes most of the work, but usually stick to the traditional english way. I can't take any thing with ibuprofen in it. Hope someone can help keep my needles clicking.
