But the lack of opponents has curtailed that

Move to Lincolnshire, I'm only an hour away.

I'm trying [:D] The RAF are being a bit slow to move me though, not sure that needing someone to play wargames with is what they'll see as a good reason either. I've been promised a move, but I'll believe it when I actually see it.

That's not a "some time" prospect. It's a "lots of time" prospect...[:'(]

Thank you, T! [:D]

Ok, so we got the vet report back on Beaudy. He's not quite the mess we originally thought, but he's still a bit of a mess. Back left leg is atrophied, and has a cartilage pop on flexion. Not unexpected, and he's still pretty happy about his butt. Vet can fix that, and make him comfy.

Sent his bladder stones off to U. of Minnesota for assay. Results, folded in to his blood work, will tell the whole tale, and say what we should keep our eyes peeled for. Once we get those results back, it's diet definition time; the Hills vets are intensely interested in what's up with Beaudy. They want him as a poster child for dietary mediation. I like them. They are worried about the dog, not their CVs or what they can hustle.

Anyhoo, Beaudy has the absolute best of care (from our vet, Ann Rankin) and some serious corporate sponsorship, so my little pup ought to get righteous pretty darn quick. Will report, if ya'll care.

Ciao. John

Thanks for the progress report, John! Specific diets can do wonders for so many conditions in our furry family members. Please keep us updated. [:)]

If you're not happy about your butt, life's not worth living... Just ask any woman between the ages of 16 and 76...

This is most of my board game collection:

Simon, dude! Do you also have a second garage to store your collection? [:D]

Most impressive!

I used to have a couple more board wargames, but the only one's I've continued to hold onto are 3rd Reich, 2nd Fleet, Nato: Next War in Europe, Squad Leader, and Cross of Iron. They are safely packed into a box in the attic.
