when I read the bit about Perry the poor dog, I actually laughed.
......Fi, I don't blame you......he makes me laugh too, despite the piddles......little bugger.....he is not even old......only 8 years old and as fit as a fiddle.......just BONE IDLE!!! Through the day he quite cheerfully wanders round the block & pees outside. And he is happy to go outside at night if he gets a sniff of a possum or a koala. But then decides to pee in the kitchen on the way back???????????? LOL.....
