3:29 am
lynxxx

Just started myself Andree
3:29 am
loredana

andree the grid is delightful the last leg looks a little doubtful for me though
3:30 am
Andree

you are right ofcourse haz, silly thought
3:30 am
Haz1558

Even though shocked by the suggestion that you could find better things to do, so far the grid is okay. Think lady's underpinnings and you're well set.
3:34 am

4:02 am
lynxxx

Very happy, just placed order with online Vetshop getting 6 months supply of Stew's Flea/Worm stuff for same price as 3 months supply normally. Love my vet but their medicines etc cost a mint
4:03 am
Atalante

excellent!
4:03 am
Haz1558

Poor vet. Sitting down to butterless bread because lynxx wouldn't buy his wormers. Violins playing in the background....
4:03 am
loredana

well done pays to shop around these days
4:03 am
Andree

excellent lynxxx
4:03 am
lynxxx

I do feel guilty but....
4:04 am
Haz1558

Yes, butterless bread, holes in the sheets, shoeless children.
4:04 am
Haz1558

A wife in rags. (Louder violin music)
4:04 am
Atalante

how much markup do vets actually make on frontline etc?
4:05 am
Atalante

a dog in a kennel outside, with no food
4:05 am
Haz1558

I have precisely no idea. But in context, we haven't had a wage increase for at least 5 or 6 years.
4:05 am
lynxxx

My other excellent online buy is to buy direct from Bendigo Woollen Mills. 200 gr pure wool for $11 - paying that price for 50 gr in the shoops
4:05 am
loredana

Oh poor Spangle lets pass the hat around
4:06 am
Andree

i hope you aren't fighting spangle for dinner
4:06 am
Atalante

I've always wondered. It's so expensive.
4:06 am
Haz1558

Who says Spangle gets any dinner? As if we have any money to feed a dog anything other than scraps from our butterless bread.
4:07 am
lynxxx

It must be 100% Ata
4:07 am
Andree

i buy from them all the time lynxxx, usually stock up at craft fair, they have 8 and 10 dollar specials
4:07 am
Atalante

she has to eat rats
4:08 am
Haz1558

But don't forget that part of that markup will be going to pay for premises, staff and the provision of advice etc that your online supplier isn't able to give.
4:08 am
lynxxx

Lord - I feel so guilty. I'm sorry !!!
4:08 am
Haz1558

The most galling phone call I took was from a woman who had bought stuff from the chemist during the day and then rang us about 10 in the evening to ask for advice on how to use it.
4:09 am
Atalante

oh yes, I'm not questioning that vets do an overly large mark-up, but I'd love to know where the expensive bits come in - is it expensive to buy from the manufacturer etc etc
4:09 am
Andree

that is so true haz, but once you know what you need nice to save some $$'s
4:09 am
Haz1558

lynxxx - I'm teasing, don't feel too guilty. A bit guilty but not too much.
4:10 am
Haz1558

It's your choice to buy supplies where you want - the vets probably can't compete on price because they have other factors to consider.
4:11 am
lynxxx

I do know Haz...I didn't begrudge the $10,000 (min) I spent on our previous dog in 3/4 years one litte bit. But now on a limited income my spending habits have changed
4:11 am
Haz1558

I understand. It sounds like you've provided plenty of butter for the shoeless children over the years.
4:12 am
Haz1558

The volin music is fading to nothing.
4:12 am
lynxxx

lol, not my vet though, he's gay and not planning any adoptions that I know of
4:13 am
Haz1558

*violin even.
4:13 am
Andree

i don't think any of us who has owned pets hasn't spent a fortune at the vet and I for one never grudged a cent
4:13 am
Atalante

nor me
4:13 am
lynxxx

Vets are beautiful caring beings
4:13 am
Andree

but I would not be above getting supplies at a better price
4:15 am
Haz1558

Will we have a whip round now for the Vets' Holiday Fund, Ballymena branch?
4:15 am
Atalante

if I was a vet, I'd be wanting to cut a deal with one of the online places. Vet refers to online, they get a cut of the purchase price and customer still gets cheaper items
4:16 am
Atalante

no. but we'll buy Spangle some dog food
4:16 am
Haz1558

Yes, but don't forget that we have built up a relationship over the years with particular suppliers. Cut them out of the picture, job losses etc for them.
4:17 am
Andree

if we buy spangle food, haz will be overun with rats
4:17 am
lynxxx

oh dear, more shoeless kids
4:17 am
lynxxx

lol Andree
4:18 am
Atalante

true, but at some point that's go to break, because it's a market inequality - vets selling the same products for much more than online retailers. Someone somewhere will break the supply chain and then others will etc etc
4:19 am
Haz1558

The reality is the customer can choose where he wants to buy the stuff, if the vet isn't shifting the produce because the price is too high, he'll stop stocking it.
4:20 am
Atalante

yep. and then his prices would have to fall, and the supplier would have to adjust somehow. the people at the bottom always take the rap
4:21 am
Haz1558

I don't pretend to understand all the economics of it all. Basically, the vet provides a service, the goods are available if people want to buy them, but he's running a business and has to make a profit.
4:21 am
Atalante

absolutely. it's basically all about everyone trying to stay in business
4:22 am

Well, this isn't getting the carpetless floors swept or the ragged clothes washed, so maybe I'd better do something about it.

Have you heard about our honeybees???? They have contracted a virus and are dying out, which gives us about seven years left to occupy the planet before we will all have to go out with paintbrushes and pollinate all our trees and stuff all day long....
6:14 am
herinfernallady

I did hear that Jai. I think we just have screwed everything up
6:14 am
Eva

our bees still seem quite vibrant. I keep a close eye on them
6:14 am
zoozzoom

Yes they have been talking about that here too, very sad..would not think a lack of bees could kill of the human race.
6:15 am
jaianniah

Yep. We have wasps of all varieties, and dive-bombing bumblebees, but I have not seeen a single honeybee all summer....
6:15 am
TraderKate

more than just the awful virus..also out competed by african bees that don't do their share of pollination and are very aggressive
6:16 am
jaianniah

Yep. It's Mississippi, so they have to come here and try us out for fun, just like the fire ants did...
6:16 am
Eva

and we have lost 90 percent of our bats due to white nose virus. We had mosquitoes with a vengeance this summer, despite the cold, because of the rain and, i would guess, the absence of bats
6:16 am

i have a rather large one on my drapes right now...he came in the open window ande it's so cold he just sittds there

I don't know if my tomatoes, the ones that didn't get blossom end rot from the extremes of temp and wet, are ever going to ripen-usually have loads of them by July. even the zucchini fizzled and that's saying a lot!

My other cat used to bring bats into my bedroom at night and let them go once she realized they weren't birds or mice. She expected me to remove them.

I had a bat flying in my house sevreal summers ago. It cost me $2000 to remove the colony from the attic and seal the house.

I thought nothing, I mean NOTHING, killed zucchini! Every year, we spend half the summer passing zucchini from house to house, wondering why the hell we didn't plant just one seed....

6:20 am
Scrabbler

I am sad + disappointed with my tomato crop this summer. I have 27 plants and the production is low.
6:20 am
herinfernallady

Snort we always knew Scrabbler had bats in her belfry
6:20 am
Eva

We had many a conversation about she who brings the bat in gets to take it out, but she would just look at me and meow.
6:21 am
Scrabbler

Kate---really, did you sleep? We were worried about you.
6:21 am
jaianniah

Lack of honeybees. See!
6:21 am
zoozzoom

LOL, eva
6:21 am
TraderKate

never plant zucchini...its like christmas fruitcake. suspect there are only actually 1000 in worlkd...they just keep getting passed on...never eaten
6:21 am
jaianniah

TK, you stole my joke!!!!!! Only nobody read it......
6:22 am
Eva

I know kate, but it's the one thing you can always count on for abundance, even if we all gripe about it. And ever since I found out about using it instead of pasta it gets used much more rapidly.
6:22 am
herinfernallady

Scrabbler I got to snuggle the cutest Angora rabbit today
6:22 am
TraderKate

Scrabbler

Why, Jai?
6:25 am
Eva

I can't imagine sleeping that long scrabbler-only has happened a handful of times in my adult life when sick. 6-7 is my max
6:25 am
herinfernallady

It was wonderful. The store that sells them is a rescue store. They make sure every single pet that leaves there gets a good home. ALso the rabbit Cup Cake gets free reign of the bench when its quiet.
6:25 am

hi trif
6:39 am
herinfernallady

TRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIFIEEEEEEEEEES
6:39 am
TraderKate

the pto saga continues, does it?
6:40 am
Scrabbler

Alright, I must move myself out of this seat and prepare for the day.
6:40 am
Trifioso

okay, babble question: does anyone else sometimes get words wrong in their head as they play? Here''s what I mean - I found the pl4 that means the ballet bend. Then I pluraled it, and then I tried "one who does the bend" which is how I pronounced it in my head. only after I entered the plural of THAT did I realize that the word actually was the name of a tool, not "one who does the bend" - anyone else ever do this?
6:40 am
TraderKate

trif psst you've got a fan
6:40 am
Wolvie

yes, I remember the battle you mentioned - good luck
6:40 am
Wolvie

bye scrab
6:40 am
Scrabbler

Well, Kate, it is unresolved as I am preparing my arguments
6:40 am
Wolvie

yes trif. :-)
6:41 am
Scrabbler

Yes, I often mispronounce words in my head and find it is a word said another way
6:41 am
Trifioso

hello all - HHHEERRRIIIINNNNN
6:41 am
herinfernallady

Trifs i find it easier just to hit and type. Best luck Trifs
6:41 am

6:41 am
Scrabbler

Bye all. I will miss you. I work from 8:30-7:30 today. Yuck.
6:41 am
Trifioso

kate, who is it that you refer to? Herin?
6:42 am
Trifioso

6:44 am
Wolvie

bye haz
6:44 am
TraderKate

the key is pronunciation. today i was adding 's,er' to some words. had what men wear ....but didn't try er on the food because it is pronounced differently
6:44 am
TraderKate

bye bunnygirl
6:45 am
TraderKate

6:45 am
TraderKate

6:46 am
herinfernallady

I heart the b.f that is allowing me on his fb page to see what its drama is
6:46 am
TraderKate

bye haz
6:47 am
Trifioso

which makes me think - babble nicknames often are not pronounced anything like what the real names are....for example, "herin" is not how the first two words of herinfernallady is pronounced, yet we all shortened it thusly.
6:47 am
TraderKate

mutual admiration society, i like that trif
6:48 am
Wolvie

except me - I'm worse - I call her fern. ;-0
6:48 am
Trifioso

(((as you can see, I love me some words!!!)))
6:48 am
herinfernallady

I like Herin. I think it was Inge that said it was very close to master of the dog
6:48 am
TraderKate

too many letters her infernal lady
6:49 am
TraderKate

is there a she who must be obeyed?
6:49 am
Trifioso

and my name is a mash up of my kid's names, yet people here call me "trif" which mashes two of the names even further. Note - I don't mind trif at all!!!
6:49 am
Wolvie

not that I know of Kate
6:50 am
TraderKate

all nicknames are short , warm and fuzzy
6:50 am
herinfernallady

Yep. That is usually me :D
6:51 am
TraderKate

hyerin reminds me of bird, heron...very regal, but not pretentious
6:51 am
TraderKate

guess i9 didn't pick a good name then?
6:52 am
Trifioso

your name is just fine Kate - there, see, even I shortened you!
6:52 am
SheenaShayna

6:55 am
Trifioso

I used Trifioso when I first went on line years ago, and just never changed it. I like how it's gender neutral, and unique enough that I usually don't have to add numbers after it.

8:53 am
Atalante

he's working up to something spectacular
8:53 am
Lizsark

Thats what worries me!
8:53 am
Atalante

if Os was human, he'd be ......
8:54 am
afflamed

yes sometimes. If i have someone with me to handle all three. The female is show trained so she stays next to me but the males need constant supervision lol
8:54 am

Blimey I wouldn't like to meet a human with Oscars personality ROFL
8:54 am

8:55 am
Lizsark

Aggressive!!!! LOL!!!!!! He might lick you to death
8:55 am
Atalante

8:55 am
afflamed

more than likely, willow is an english lab so shes short squat and thick, the 2 males are tal and slender = american labs
8:55 am
Lizsark

thats true :)
8:56 am
Lizsark

Oscar is half English bloodlines and half French. He's big and solid, proper old fashioned show type
8:56 am
Atalante

but he's more likely to just fall over himself, as we well know
8:56 am
Atalante

ie he's HUGE
8:56 am
afflamed

my babies are like that too, theyll lick you to death but they sure sound scary when you are on the other side of the front door ))

and did it... go smoothly? i mean, i know there are some islands, like in the mediterranean, where they aren't very welcoming of newcomers
9:18 am
Lizsark

I think the way its looked at here is that you may be a resident and you are accepted for that but you will never be local unless you are born here!
9:19 am

were you on your own or still with parents? was it hard to find a job, place to live?

I think it's the same here, Liz. It's not that people are unfriendly, and I have lived here for 27 years, but I don't think of myself as coming from here.
9:20 am
Lizsark

No I was offered a job here which was supposedly a seasonal thing. I took it because I had a break before I was due to start my new job after A Levels and College. I never left.
9:20 am

9:20 am

lol liz we have a island just like that down near the city called toronto island and they are always at war with the rest of "the mainland" because seeing as they do not get any of the city services"water,sewer,garbage pick up" they pay less taxes on thier propertyBUT now the tax reassesment dofferential has slid so much,they are using a tazx base on the island from the 60,s and everyone is fighting to get on the list for the next property that comes up for sale there lol

hi lynxxx! oh, Sprite.. very good news re Terra!
2:20 pm
sprite

that goes for most puzzles, I've found.
Hiya torg :)
2:21 pm
sprite

halfway September we are due back to the vet and then we will hear more. If necessary, x-rays will be made then to see how bad it is. But if all is fine, no x-rays. Because Terra must be sedated for x-rays.
2:22 pm
Aloyisius

do you feed her any supplements , like glucosamine chondroitin?
2:22 pm
lynxxx

what has been wrong with Terra Sprite? hips?
2:23 pm
sprite

yes, very painful hips and way too much space in them. But at his age, it can all still change for the better. We discourage his jumping and standing on his hindlegs.
2:23 pm
sprite

no I don't... that is something I use myself, actually. Is it there for dogs as well?
2:24 pm
Atalante

glucosamine can make the difference between almost not being able to move and bouncing about for Hobbit
2:24 pm
sprite

will check it out, thanks for the tip Aloy!
2:24 pm
Aloyisius

our neighbor had great success with it for his G. Shepherd, so we tried it with our old lab.. and it did help
2:24 pm
lynxxx

a form of glucosamine is very commonly recommended for dogs here too
2:24 pm
lynxxx

hi Ata
2:24 pm
sprite

wonderful, thanks all
2:25 pm
Aloyisius

mixed recs from vets, so I say it can't hurt to try
2:25 pm
Atalante

and yes, dogs can take the human glucosamine, just make sure of the dosage. it's often cheaper than buying special animal stuff
2:25 pm
sprite

how much do you give Hobbit, Ata?
2:26 pm
Atalante

um. let me go check
2:26 pm
Aloyisius

I think I remember 1000 mg .. large dog tho
2:27 pm

I think Hobbit is closer to Terra's size. I think I would be ok if I gave him half Hobbit's dose

and Hey BabRab, nice to see you
2:28 pm
Atalante

she has 225mg daily, Terra should have half her amount according to size. But she does have up to 2 or 3 times that dose daily when she's having difficulties
2:28 pm
Aussieme

and ATA !!!!! Are you counting down to Oxonmoot yet ?
2:28 pm
Atalante

absolutely! I'm making stuff for Oxonmoot as we speak!

all written down! Thanks a lot!

it really has made a *huge* difference to Hobbit

oh sprite - if you buy glucosamine from the vet, it's very expensive. there are cheaper sources, you just need to check the dosage. Internet, local pet shops etc
2:38 pm

it does take a few days at least to kick in, don't expect instant results
2:43 pm
Aloyisius

true.. give it a few days
2:43 pm

I won't, will give it time to work its way in.

I never spent the money at all. Thus my statement that one of my fave babblers saved me. I was apparently so in demand that she decided to sponsor me. Hey TO!!!!

If you are here after more than a few weeks/months than you will see many others suggested/requested to go pro. It is a long standing tradition probably stemming from the many trolls that used to frequent this former haven.

7:48 pm

I find that presence in chat tends to dictate the requests for prodom as opposed to length of residence. There are fascinating and useless studies to be done here.
7:49 pm

well - i guess if you don't chat, no one knows you are there - LOL
7:49 pm
