Gorgeous pictures in it! Marco does take to children who come to the house. He just has a fear of loud small children passing the garden or on walks. They totally freak him out!

DaviMack – Thanks for the info! I live in Inverness though so Glasgow might be a little far for choir practice! Not very good with group activities anyway. By “sing more” I really meant in the shower/garden/kitchen/car. :)

Going to join a choir? Glasgow University has one. Says our conductor:

I’m very much looking forward to conducting you next semester for our ‘Haydn Anniversary Concert’ on Sunday 15th March 2009 in the University Memorial Chapel (7.30pm).

The programme includes 3 choral works:-
Insanae et vanae curae
The Storm, Hob. XXIVa:8
Mass in B flat, Hob. XXII:10, Missa Sancti Bernardi von Offida (Heiligmesse)
plus the Organ Concerto in C, Hob. XVIII:1 with Peter Yardley-Jones as soloist

Weekly rehearsals begin again on Thursday 15th January, 5.15-7.00pm in the University Concert Hall. Please turn up promptly at 5pm for enrolment, signing out of music etc.

Some dogs just have problems with children, but will quiet down & make nice when the children themselves are quiet & calm and approach calmly. My own dear Bridie had several bad encounters with children, including one that screamed and ran whenever she was near, which reduced her tolerance for children of any kind.

But children with chicken in their hands… oh yes, good children!

I’d rather try Victoria’s methods, she of Its the Dog or Me (not sure I have the spelling or punctuation correct), not Milan’s. Just my two cents or pence!

Rosy Ro loves children, and was raised in a day care, which I think helps. I plan to socialize her heavily as possible with all varieties of people. Taking her to a local museum with loads of children around should help, as we get busloads nearly every day, and they adore her. Will need to wear her out so no nipping happens. (coff)

Plans : growing up Rosy the new pup, of course. ;) Picked up a new cat condo for Annie, so Rosy can’t pull her tail anymore… poor Annie! so that’s one goal accomplished for the new year. ;)

Heather – Hello! Pottery sounds good but I hate the way my hands feel all dry afterwards… Goodness, I haven’t worked with clay since I was a kid. I can still remember how much I hate that feeling though. :-S

Megan – Oh, if only I had a Wii…

I don’t know about climbing a few munros – I live in Australia! Bread is on the agenda and possibly some sort of evening college course. Pottery perhaps. And more exercise.
Happy New Year!

Heather

I’m with you on sociability and bread-baking – I’m adding write more on mine – thanks for the inspiration. All the best for 2009!
