This afternoon, Paul a dog handler came to tell us about the work these dogs do, he bought a large German Shepherd, who works as an attach dog, we saw a DVD showing these brave dogs in action, facing fir and criminals with guns, wonderful pictures of him leaping over a car and flattening the criminal, I would not like to be on the receiving end. We then met a Labrador bitch who is a sniffer dog, she found some cannabis that had been hidden in the room, we were aloud to meet he properly, the German Shepperd might have had our fingers, we were told that when looking for people in Marks and Spencer's he helped himself to a couple of steak pies.
I think every one enjoyed the afternoon, they had a good tea, three members cerebrated their birthdays.

It seems long time since I added anything. Our Christams lunch went well, Rum punch and nibbles, then sat down to roast turkey and all the trimmings, followed by triffle, mince pies with tea or coffee then we were entertained by Mark, Ann Woods friend on the piano, joining in carols and hearing some old favorites, sadly no one took pictures.
We don't meet in January, first meeting was Febuary 4th, tea & chat with a quize we were low on numbers, bad time of year, lots of folk unwell, but a good time was had.
