Great thread, designs. I love a lot of Lennon songs, with or without McCartney. It's such a shame he was gunned down by some lunatic - a terrible loss.

I love this song, Imagine, although I find it strange to see John singing 'imagine no possessions, I wonder if you can' at an expensive piano in his big mansion.

I also like Jealous Guy, such a beautiful song.

in an earlier thread, i mentioned that i wasn't a particularly doggy person but that my parents got a husky last year that i've come to regard as a kind of brother.. huskies superficially resemble wolves and for me it's been fun to compare and contrast husky and wolf behaviour.

huskies howl but rarely bark, and seem to have a strong prey drive and a strong pack instinct - a nod to their wild cousins.

this is why i love huskies, i think.. do you have a favourite dog breed and why?.

I could dig up a picture if you want - if it's not too much trouble, that would be great, thanks.

Smaller animals were candy as far as they were concerned - I can well imagine it, my parents' husky is similar.

Thanks for the photos lisa, they're too cute!

Thanks for all the responses.

Blondie - that last photo you posted is so cute!

Vanderhoven & talsin - rotties and dobies are wussies? Great, they go on my 'dogs I might own' list. I also like GSDs and border collies, too.

Great photo, kaik - the limb length vs body length proportion suggests GSD to me and the colour is obviously wolf. Beautiful specimen.

TD - how did your husky/wolf hybrids behave around people, other dogs, smaller animals? Could you walk them off the leash?

Pat Condell on Britain's Cultural Crisis

by cofty in

a scandal is brewing in the uk.

for many years gangs of asian men engaged in rape and torture of young girls who were in the "so-called" care system.

it is believed there were around 1,400 victims in north west england, focussed on the town of rotherham.. if reports are to be believed, social workers, police and the cpc knew it was happening and everybody failed to act for one simple reason.

Sorry, I was wrong, no Muslim Police Association, but give time ...

Interesting link, Ruby.

However, that article must be put into context.

The 2011 Tottenham riots saw widespread looting and arson - is this a typically British thing to do?

In recent years, poppy burnings by muslim extremists have happened. Is this a British thing to do?

Depending on which source is most accurate, between 500 and 1500 muslims have travelled to Syria/Iraq to participate in jihad, beheadings, buying of women slaves and genocide. Are these typically British acts?

In Britain, we have the Black Police Association and the Muslim Police Association. Is this arrangement British?

Do you have a favourite dog breed and why?

If you don't but love dogs anyway then your comments are equally welcome.

Thank you.

My dog just died.

by panhandlegirl in

i just buried my beloved poddle, little brother.

he died suddenly.

i know to most people that is not an important event.

I'm sorry to hear of your loss and I hope that time heals your wounds.

I don't really know what else to say. In the past, I've been guilty of dismissing peoples' grief over pets as overindulgance, sentimentality for its own sake, etc. I've never really been a doggy person but my parents bought a husky last year and I have to say, dogs are loyal to their owners. I've come to regard him as almost a brother.

In time, do you plan on getting another dog?

Take care

I agree with watson - I'm not gonna watch it. The photo is embarassing enough.
