Anyone else fancy it? Possibly yes. Yup. Sounds appealing, who's the organiser? http://www.silverstoneauctions.com/porsche-911-gt3... What's that likely to go for? The estimate of £28-£34k seems on the low side.

Should get one, ideal for reducing stress I was sure too...! I look after the owner of the businesses dog (small black lab) quite often so I may have mentioned that before? That explains it.

I'm now booked on.
Will decide on which car to take when I see what the weather's like.

If you want a dog it has to be a Labrador. My family have had them for years, lovely dogs. Smaller dogs dont do anything for me, my uncle has 2 Jack Russells and they are horrible snappy little turds. The Labradors are so much more chilled out. If I was getting my own dog it would have to be a Newfoundland. They have the best nature of any dog I can think of. Really are gentle giants but the downside is they need a huge amount of exercise, ideally swimming and sadly they dont seem to live very long either compared to smaller dogs. They do tend to make the house smell of wet dog though

That's very strange with regards me having a Westie??!! Perhaps it is fate then I have had a labrador in the past and he really was the most fantastic companion, semi gun dog trained (his father was ex-Sandringham) and so had a slight inclination what to do... However, as I live in a flatartment a smaller dog is much more sensible and there is no reason whey one when tarined and brought up properly should be snappy, a lot of that can be down to the owner rather than the dog itself. Plus as I drive a lot of smaller/less practical cars then a small dog is again a much more sensible option. I do quite like the idea of a Jack Russel as a mountain bike comapanion, running alongside

Also fits in a sports car.

I too thought you'd actually got one. Are you sure you're not trying to cover something up?

You guys are right in that I did indeed post up pictures of Westie and Midget (NOB) so that is probably where the confusion is. And unsuprisingly so!
A Cocker Spaniel is a good option too......
