the puppy almost known as 't-bone' is once again a dog without a bone home name.

all of the above are/were potential candidates for the new puppy's monica.
plus several politically incorrect or just plain offensive words that i can't even write here.
WIDE OPEN for debate.
it's a shame the old forum's closed: i could have run an opinion poll.
there will be no competition with a prize for best name.
i'm now favoring 'blood' but mrs.perou refuses adamantly.
'napoleon' is in the lead, despite my 'nothing french' ban.
i like how pretentious it is and how it can't be abbreviated to something ending in a 'Y'.

loyal son z refuses to call the puppy anything but 't-bone' and is insisting that 't-bone' will remain the dog's middle name.
after a quick trip to the vet's this morning for some puppy shots, we all drove down to mum-mum and dad-dad's house in sussex for lunch.
(one of our turkeys).
followed by a sunlit walk through a beautiful wood over chailey common.
and back again.

stratford has been tolerating the puppy.
although he's clearly upset:
he has spent all day stinking out my mum and dad's house and the perou-mobile, getting to and from it, with the worst dead man's farts you've EVER smelt.
'black' the cat would tolerate the puppy if the puppy didn't keep going for him.
once the puppy's used to a cat, he's still got to get to grips with chickens, ducks, peacocks, and horses.
then pigs and turkeys to follow.
i have a big week ahead.
and unfortunately i feel like i'm coming down with something head cold-esque.
