Ohhh Tucson - that is awful!!! Give them a call and ask them if you sound like some Scottish bloke?!?!?

Speaking of the Scottish dialect I spoke to someone who actually said "dinnae ken" yesterday and it made my day!! laughing.gif I also speak to a guy from Yorkshire who sounds rather camp but very sweet and who ends all his sentences with the word "duck". There is also a car dealer somewhere in Northern Ireland (can't remember which one) where everyone who works there frequently says "so it is/so she is/so they did etc" after making a statement!! It is very cute and very Irish!! laughing.gif



dinnae ken is very east scotland.

at least it's quality beef. Sorry, man that must be annoying. I was suprised my name has been correct all the way through. My surname is Cowey but the regular spelling is Cowie.

on the language subject...try living in Scotland. I'm Scottish and the use of the word "how" here drives me mad. Alot of the time up here people use how instead of why. For example, if I was to say I went shopping today someone might say how? meaning why did I go and not what method of transport.

Sounds wonderful! I am wondering if with the sage advice of a kitty-maniac-veteran I could get another cat when I move... I don't know how Daisy will take it but if it is a new place then she won't have marked it as "her" territory yet and it will give her someone to fight when they are waiting indoors for a while to get them used to the house smile.gif

Think will defo need to pick Mags' brains smile.gif

I think cats do know when they have done something bad. Cats just have so much personality. Nick loves cats, he just prefers dogs, I love dogs...I just prefer cats. Our house going to be full of animals....especially as this job he going for at the humane soc.

on another more positive note....the job nick waiting to hear from...basically the place wont find out that it has funding for the positions until 8th maybe later but they reckon they need 5 more people. The manager is writing Nick a letter to send saying that as long as they recieve funding he has the job, at least it shows that he is looking and is employable....I mean he's only been back in US 4 weeks and over festive period too. That's lifted a wee bit of stress.

my wee kitty staying here at my parents in the scottish countryside to live out her twilight years. She's a really nervous timid cat and I think the stress of travelling would finish her off. Sad to leave her but it's for the best.

I don't actually have my own dentist. Went to the dental hospital in glasgow as emergency as the infection as got into my jaw. I have the box and a stamped card from the dental hospital. Do you think that will do. I just want to cover all my bases due to the fact that the drug is used for something like treatment of alcoholics.

Hey Debz, maybe you should call the medical office and ask them if it might be a problem, and if it might, postpone your medical appt. by a few days. Can't hurt to ask, right?



cheers...good plan...I called...as long as I take the stamped card from the dental hospital I'll be fine

just a wee Q, it'll only have been a couple of days between me finishing the antibiotics and my medical. Should I tell them about it and why I was on it as although metronidazole is a dental antibiotic it's also the drug they give to alcoholics to stop them drinking. One mouthful of alcohol on this drug makes you violently sick. It would probably still show up in a drugs test.
