Thanks Nancy, I didn't think I worded it so badly that it could be interpreted in that way. My friends brought Winnie home late yesterday afternoon, she's in good shape apart from being very sore and lost a fair bit of weight. She's laying in front of the fire right now, snoring away... |

| Jeßus <j@j.j>: Jul 08 06:18AM +1000 >>Apparently in reasonable shape too, she will be back here in about an >>hour :) >I'm so glad for you! And Winnie ! How was she found ? Well, Winnie went missing from my friend's place (about 15KM from home). Yesterday my friend had some of his family over, along with a few of our mutual friends with their own dogs. Apparently the dogs were outside playing and barking like they do and a few minutes later one friend, Will, commented "When did Winnie come back"? to which the response was "she hasn't". Will then said "well, who is this then?' pointing at Winnie who was standing on the verandah. So it looks like Winnie was very slowly finding her way back and the barking dogs was the last clue she needed. If only she could talk... Luckily the weather has been very mild the past two weeks. She is basically unharmed, apart from losing a fair bit of weight and being very sore and sorry for herself. She's never going to my friend's place again, needless to say... at least as long as my friend's dog Zed is around. It's only when those two get together that this happens. |

Odd how a dog will do that all of a sudden, unless the dog has been up to this caper all along and the owner never knew? I know of one Jack Russell that likes to sneak out and back again before his owners get home :) |

I have fought too hard with my rescue dogs to give them a good life to listen to such barbarity. I really hope nothing ever happens to his Winnie. I am pleased she is back. -- http://www.helpforheroes.org.uk/shop/ |

I have no interest in getting reactions from you other than friendly, but as someone who cares for abandoned and cruelly used dogs I am afraid I take such flippant comments badly. -- http://www.helpforheroes.org.uk/shop/ |

Maybe the > pressure blows out old gunk? I don't know. A locksmith told me never to use WD40 because it attracts dirt and to always use graphite. Graphite has worked in every sticky lock situation I've been in - most of which includes salt air corrosion. -- sf |

I can't say I have never slopped any liquid at all, but certainly not enough that one could argue it was necessary to have a liquid measuring cup for it. Sometimes I get daring and measure a half cup by filling the measuring cup only half way. > You always measure from the bottom of the meniscus.
