Still on the dog front we have tried out another company. They are called Barking Mad and although you do get a little bit of money this is more about the joy of having a dog. We have a wonderful dog staying at the moment - not sure we will want to say goodbye. I have also had to walk this one twice a day so that's mounting up on the exercise front too.

Another added bonus is that with the weekend coming up my kids entertainment will be the dog and he can't be left for long so thats a good excuse for not going out anywhere else and spending any money.
