    Don't use bread crumbs to find your way back. I think someone on the Cooking board keeps picking them up. :D

    You rang?

    If you go to Browse at the top, then all topics, then forum community, member discussions, the Lounge, but then it gets tougher because they are by date the question was posted, not latest post. I find it by scrolling down looking for a large number of posts since most of the threads are short.

    I hope that answers your questions. I'm trying to see if there is a way to find it through Dashboard or My Answers. I see my other answers in there, but not the lounge.

    Oh, I just did a Search on big top and it came up. That's at the top left hand side - next to ask a question.

    I just joined you in ff, though I don't plan to stay long. I wanted to double check on the edit button. I remember the first post I made in it came out weird. I had copied and pasted it from Word, and some of the punctuation came out wrong. I couldn't edit it, so instead I deleted it and copied it again, editing before posting. It didn't show the weird punctuation, but I knew it was there. Anyway, I'm going to post this and see what things look like... and then run back to the old style. :)

    Fair enough, no quote button either so I I won't be able to direct my reply to a certain post,

    I foresee a lot of confusion as to who is replying to what, my spidey sense is tingly :D

    You even a note saying 'weve identified these issues and are to be worked on' would be nice especially if you have made them aware of them.

    I've moved back to default now though tis much easier to navigate

    Well, you can see the thread I made here:

    https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/suggestions/

    This page doesn't appear on here, but only when you go through the link, or through Go Style. Perhaps you can add some issues I missed :)

    Unky - not much to choose from. Too bad Morgaine isn't on yet.

    Thanks JLo :o

    Well, for me it's being a little slow since the start of school, that is about in August. There were some people who appeared when the Go Style was imposed on half newbies, but then, it's been calm again.

    Just saw a question relating to a sick 'teacup' pup.

    The owner is going to get the shock of their life when the girls (shaz,bella and alty) see this one.

    I was switched to the new skin accidentally and thought I'd have a look around.

    Yeah... I'm back in the real world now.

    You know, I know ignorance is no excuse. But I kind of feel sorry for that OP. She sounds like a ditz TBH, I hate making judgement calls like that, and I usually don't, but anyone who thinks it may be normal for a pup to be so weak it can't stand, just shouldn't be a pet owner.

    I see ads everyday for "miniature" and "teacup" dogs. People have no clue what that actually means. Another term I hate too, is "designer" breeds. BYB's are actually making money off that phrase :(

    Wow sorry to vent, just got back from class, had an awesome day. Don't know why I am so cranky! Lol

    Where the heck is Alty??

    Saw my first 'labradoodle' the other day... I told the women 5 years ago it was called a mongrel.

    I don't know what she forked out for the dog,

    The dog looked kind of funny.
  • Sep 13, 2010, 12:23 PM

    I actually think labradoodle's are ugly.I am sure there are cute ones out there, you can never be sure what they will look like. We had a few come into the shelter. One of them just would not shut up. Wined and barked and howled constantly. SOOO annoying.

    Haha. That was funny.

    I visited a lady in Los Angeles a couple of weeks ago. She has a 3 year old labradoodle - he was very cute and friendly.

    Well it's actually 26 days, but who is counting? I can't wait. :) We are just about ready for it. I'm glad it's a smaller, more intimate wedding. I'm enjoying the process, versus Carolyn who is pulling her hair out. Her wedding is this Saturday. I'll post a couple of pictures next week, with her permission. I'll at least post one of myself in the bridesmaid's dress.

    Ah, wedding are great,big or small.

    The thing is to enjoy it,lots of couples get caught up trying to talk to everyone and make sure everyone is having a good time that the day is gone before they know it,and they hardly saw each other!

    I just find it amazing how these mixed breeds have become some sort of fancy breed... with price tags to match! I remember when you could get such a pup for free or about $25.

    Totally agree there doula.

    A one stage here we were tripping over pups... granted,they were all from local farmers or bred from family pets,but then,lots of people did not know puppy farms were illegal.

    Dogs were/are overbreed,and if there was a runt they were shot or drowned.
    Still happens today,no matter how easy the shelters make it for people to bring in animals,they just throw them in the river or a bucket of water.

    Its tragic,horrific and sadly true.

    Hi all.

    I just had a giggle and I have to share.

    This is how much of a rabbit geek I am. I just got an early birthday email from the "house rabbit society" and from the "Rabbits United forum".

    Ya, I'm all about the bunnies.

    I'm sorry. I've been busy sleeping and trying to get over whatever the heck has grabbed hold of me. I'm not well.

    When I went to pick up the kids today three different people came up to me and asked if I was dying because I look so pale and worn out. Gee, I didn't think I looked that bad. I guess I do. :(

    Maybe it's 40itis. Ya, that has to be it.

    Enjoy your 20's Bella, soon you'll be in my boat.

    OMG! When you're in my boat I'll be in my... :eek: :eek: :eek:
