herbie67 Hi there, I too have smelly dogs! However I have found that bathing them is not enough - I also need to wash at the same time their bedding otherwise they get smelly almost instantly after a bath.

herbie67 Yes! I have clothes that I have never worn and have been hanging in my closet (in some cases) for a few years. And it is not that I don't like them, it is just that I don't have anywhere to war them. I am trying to get out of the habit of buying stuff I don't...

herbie67 I would give a young child a mobile phone so I could call them and be able to contact them at all times, however it would have limited credit or be 'locked' so that it could only phone a couple of set numbers - definately no texting!
