Guest Posted March 18, 2009 Posted March 18, 2009 This is a fab thread Happy Maz, thanks for all the work your putting in for us all. I've used up my quota already, but I am surprised no-one has chose Dogger yet. That would be my next choice if I was allowed any more. Salsa Quote
HappyMaz Posted March 18, 2009 Author Posted March 18, 2009 3 of our favs are; Dear Zoo, Harry the dirty dog, "Not Me," Said the monkey (our copy of this is very tatty!) Campbells and MrsWeasley were both on the aforementioned training on Saturday, tissue and Campbells ran for 'dear zoo' because she loooooooooooves it! Maz Quote

HappyMaz Posted November 14, 2011 Author Posted November 14, 2011 Am I allowed to say that I absolutely positively cannot stand Topsy and Tim? Quote
SueFinanceManager Posted November 15, 2011 Posted November 15, 2011 Am I allowed to say that I absolutely positively cannot stand Topsy and Tim? It was still a free country last time I looked so I guess you are Quote
emmajess Posted November 15, 2011 Posted November 15, 2011 Oh! The Bog Baby is a gorgeous book - and have you seen the other one by the same author, 'The King of Tiny Things'? Such beautiful illustrations and really thought provoking. Also I'd add DandyLion and No Mater What to the list. 2 years on, I've finally made a choice! Quote
finleysmaid Posted November 15, 2011 Posted November 15, 2011 Am I allowed to say that I absolutely positively cannot stand Topsy and Tim? (shh... dont tell anyone but i was going to post exactly the same response yesterday but thought i might offend someone.....it's the and she said and he said and she said dialogue i find irritating) Quote
