63) See a Rugby Match at Murrayfield.

My husband is really in to rugby and I like it too, although I don’t understand all the rules. We always watch it on the telly and we went to the World Cup Final at Cardiff Stadium (amazing time, fantastic atmosphere – hats off to Cardiff, the stadium is magnificent). However we have never been to a game at Murrayfield. Very remiss of us I think, as it’s the home ground and not too far away for us to travel there and back in a day.


29) Get my puppy to stop chewing things.
Our puppy Hamish is a big lump. We got him from Mrs Murray’s . (Local home for strays and unwanted pets – they do great work and our family has had lots of pets from them over the years) He was in for re-homing a second time as his previous owners had found him far too boisterous. They thought he was a Labrador/Boxer cross but it turns out there is some Great Dane in the mix too.

He is fed twice a day. There are various chew toys throughout the house (We are forever tripping on the blasted things) and yet Hamish has a more discerning palette. He enjoys soap, cat litter (new or used, both seem to hold equal appeal) kitchen roll, sawdust, towels and warm washing (only warm) airing on the radiators, eggs in their boxes, all washed down with any liquid that is in a plastic bottle and not more than 6ft (as this is how far he can reach) off the floor.

His latest gourmet meal was my handbag (How silly of me to leave it hanging on the back of a chair!) It wouldn’t be so bad but when he gets caught he just looks at you with his big soppy eyes as if to say “Look what I’ve discovered, would you like to share it?!”
