So bye bye Blighty........



I'm back in France,back in business, with all the cobs and their jobs..........



(lots of cheesy feet to trim!!).

 We're also finally back with an internet connection courtesy of a flash new satellite dish and very expensive new satellite broadband connection. It's been ever such a long break from the blog spot,but I feel I should catch up my news even if it hasn't been such a good year it's definitely been far more successful than the year before, even if the weather w...

Chucking our tuppence worth into the Plus size Model debate, we thought it a good idea to show off our very own candidate with a view to possibly being spotted by a top modelling agency and signed up for a hefty fee. Muddy Dog, sporting a two piece fit for Miss Moss, is looking forward to her imminent pups and  wondering what all the fuss is about...
