PetChatz? Seems great to me, but I've already gone mad.

Your link did not come through on your post, btw.

I can understand you wanting to view your pet while away from the house, like a baby monitor, but to give the animal the ability to call you ?

And if you care so much for the pet......why leave it alone.....take the thing with you.

If the link didn't work, how did you know it was Petchatz ?

Last question first: When I pressed 'reply w/quote' the printed link appeared; I copied it & pasted it to Google.

I have cats, & they don't leave home, so I can't take them w/me. I would love it if they called me when I were out. I would also like to look in on them. I love them.

My daughter that you met is the same, she has two cats, one has only one eye.

What happened to the other eye? Is it still there or just blind?

The cat used to escape from the other cat by climbing above her kitchen cabinets into a little cubby hole, don't know what it was there for.

Anyway, one day the poor animal jumped down and impaled herself through the eye on the extended aerial of the radio on the worktop.

Cost lots to sort the cat out with vet bills.

The cats still don't get on, they just coexist somehow.

Awful! Can't bear the thought!

Our family have had a bad week this week.

My adopted daughter tragically lost her baby at 8 months.

Everything was OK until Sunday night, then after an uncomfortable night, early Monday morning she was rushed to hospital where she was told her baby had died.

After a cesarean, her situation worsened as her blood pressure and increasing pain continued to rise until at the last minute another trip to theatre resolved the internal bleeding. She returned home late Saturday night after being told about midday she was OK to leave.

The physical pain is lessening with the help of pain killers, next will be the psychological pain.

That's terrible news, I'm so sorry for all of you.

((Bruv)) so sorry.

So very sorry to hear that Bruv.

:yh_hugs:yh_hugs to you all, not many words that can help, incredibly sad to hear this and I can't begin to imagine how you all feel xx

:yh_brokeh:yh_brokeh...... mate.

So sad, very sorry Bruv.

Bruv my thoughts are with you all. As BB said, not many words can offer any help, just a 'sorry'.

Not many members ever meet up in real life, but it is so strange how people, who communicate through a keyboard, can become personally involved with each other and genuinely feel emotions towards each other. Reading these various posts, Bruv, I can feel that you have such support from different directions, and it is sincere. Be strong for each other, all of you.

Many thanks.

Her body is healing, and she is a very strong minded young lady, she will be OK I am sure.

Cell Phones are a marvelous thing, they let you keep in touch with people far away.

However, they keep you from staying in touch with those sitting right next to you! :wah:

Losing a pregnancy, especially so late in its term, is most often devastating for a woman, causing her to feel like a failure or unworthy. Bruv and his family appear to be strong-minded intelligent people who will support her through this difficult time. Good luck!

So true, that is so true cars.

I have grown to hate communication by text msg. It is ok for a brief, immediate, topical conversation, but a couple of the grandkids use texting as their sole means of communication with friends and family.

I told them that the only way I will communicate with them is either face to face, or via telephone call. The grandson in Missouri now calls me at times, just to chat.

Granddaughter will go for weeks without any word, and then will show up at the door to visit and tell us of her latest exploits.

It's all good.

And the only time I bring my phone out during dinner is if the discussion gets around a topic which needs a quick look-up for definition or clarification.

Really? If i was sitting at dinner and you did that Id think that a bit anal.

Well, no. It is usually when someone says, "look it up."

Could one not dine in the library instead of the great hall in such circumstances?

Heaven forbid!

That's one reason I'm looking forward to getting an Amazon Echo.

Someone to ask without the need to set a place at the table.

That means you will have to talk to your wife.........and Echo.

My wife evidently knows more than Echo

You guys are funny!

Telling us to be quiet is similar to telling Australians to settle down. Or telling the Japanese not to be so polite. Or telling Germans not to be so serious. Or telling the French not to be condescending.


Did you just tell me to effing settle down?...... Right!Thats it! Come ere ya little mongrel!!!

:wah:

Or telling Americans they dont understand satirical humour.

What does an echo do?

Its a small speaker that activates when asked a question.....

" Hi Alexa, what's the weather like ?"

" Hi Alexa, when was the last time Boulder City Aardvarks won the Superbowl "

" Hi Alexa, where can I buy fish food ?"

" Hi Alexa, tell me a joke !"

" Hi Alexa, play me some heavy metal country music ! "

He/she will politely answer your question, fill your room with music of your choice and even control your heating and lighting around your house or remind you to buy carrots at the supermarket

Drop the 'H' & Ecoes takes on an entirely different meaning for me. Something I use in my work every day.

My phone just offered me an Android upgrade.

Stay tuned, I've no idea what I'm being given here.

eta: second boot...

... optimising app 3 of 35...

Not Android version 7 yet, but it does have the security patches. My old phone never did that.

One cannot find the least element of humor in any of this football coaching scandal but there's a perfect instance of opportunist redemption today: Higgins worked with youngsters at Southampton, who are renowned for their youth system, in the 1980s, leaving in April 1989 – the same month as the letter was sent. In 1992 he faced charges of sexual offences against boys but was cleared on the direction of a judge.

The BBC has reported that in 1997 more letters were sent to clubs warning them about Higgins. Police and social workers said they believed “Mr Higgins poses a risk to children, the broadcaster said.

[...] In 1997 the Channel 4 Dispatches documentary investigated Higgins. It reported that after the court case he became a born again Christian and that he baptised players in his bath at home.

Bloody evangelists, eh.

And still coaching football twenty years on.

Anyone starting from scratch asking where's most likely to attract a certain sort of chap in large numbers would instantly focus on two areas, coaching youth teams and scouting. I wonder whether BetFred has a book open on the latter.

There are a few websites which should quite simply not exist...

I did not need to know that.

Now that you mention it many of the names sound like they are girl names.

Dasher

Dancer

Prancer

Vixen

Comet

Cupid

Donner

Blitzen

The only real male name was "Rudolph" the Red Nose reindeer! :wah:

Evidence, perhaps, that Santa is really Australian, as their Xmas is in their Summer.

No mistake, cars. Accidental omission. Rudolpha.

They always appear to be wrong.
