    This morning Mum 84yrs asked if she could take Tilly (Australian Terrier) up to the old folks home when she goes up to read to them twice a week. Mum reads stories out to the oldies, most are her age or younger with a few older, most have dementia and really no quality of life. Apparently Tilly was a hit and spent quite some time on the lap of a 99yr olds with dementia who can't talk, limited use etc. Mum said the lady just sat there the whole time in tears and a huge smile on her dial. The home have asked mum if she could bring Tilly back again soon. What do you reckon?? I'm sure Tills enjoyed the attention.

    Fantastic
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Yup. Just ask Maca. He and two of his mates have one eye and two teeth between them.
