8. Do you have hopes and dreams for 2008 and if so what plans will you need to put in place to make them come true(for noone gets anything for nothing)

9. What you want for the World/Town/Country in 2008?

10. Anything else you would like to mention...feel free or add?

This looks lke fun! :D

1. My happiest moment has to be when we found the litter we have been searching for for nearly a year! :D

2. I think that has to be the England Rugby team!

3. Our friend having theyre first baby named Jacob, born in October we met him for the first time on Boxing Day 2007.

4.  My Boyfriends Cousin dying of Spinal cancer. :(

5. Apart from our loss it has been a fantastic year!!!! :D :D I also finally got my raise at work! :)

6. Pretty much, I dont expect alot then Im not disappointed! :D

7. I want to have a new puppy from this litter (Refer to question 1 :) ) and get him in the show ring and have a champion SBT to hopefully use as stud and eventually to gain a bitch to start my breeding line

8. My dream is to have a champion SBT!

9. To get our soilders out of Iraq and back home where they belong.

10. This is a great quiz, makes you reflect on the past year and see how far you have come, great post.

Bit different to the usual NY resolutions!

1. When Soli met a strange dog without hackles/barking/lunging etc for the firs time, at the end of summer.  And another two right afterwards on the same walk :D

2. Honestly, no idea.  I've been pretty oblivious to the new this year, more a hermit than ever before!

3. See #1 :D

4. Being made redundant in July, at just the same time as my savings account ran dry.  And only 2 days after I got my fourth dog (after much umming and ahing as to whether I could afford her :rolleyes:).

5. Fine line, but overall good I think.  It's been bloody hard - what with losing the job, settling in to a new place, looking for jobs and now settling in to a new job (3 months now) - but I think, overall, good.  I've learned a lot, met some lovely new people at work, and got my little dog.

6. Not really, I'd hoped to be in full time, permanent employment by now, paying my mortgage and so on.  As it is I'm getting gradually more in debt with my sister and friends (I rent from my sister and I'm not paying it at the mo till I can afford it); and my friend, who should have moved up in June, still hasn't been able to move from Kent (and help with the rent).  But I'm optimistic!

7. What *I* want... hmm.  To finally succeed in training my dogs to recall :D A second job, so I can pay my bills myself.  And a lovely (hot) man... really, one or other of the two guys at work I like but I'd be happy to meet someone entirely new.  Who can put up with all my animals.  Don't want much do I? :D

8. I hope to start dancing lessons in 2008, and convert my garage to hold a stupidly big tropical fish tank.  The dance lessons I need to earn more money to pay for, so that second job is a factor again.  Actually, that's the case for both the lessons and the garage/fish tank.

9. For the country - for someone to take control who has half a brain cell to play with.  To make good decisions for crime and taxpayers' money; and to sort out the joke that is the Human Rights fiasco, so that people who need to be brought to justice can be instead of their victims being persecuted.

10. Hmmm... 2008, New Year, New Me? :D Seriously though it will be, I'm going to sort myself out once and for all.  No more bad food and bad fitness, my back is almost sorted and once I'm fighting fit I intend to run.  And run some more, and dance.  And unwind every night playing my guitar.

1. Your happiest moment/event of 2007 Collecting Jessie & Rjj falling for her in a big way

2. The most memorable World/Country/Town event? Too many bad things in the world during this year, The freak floods throughout the country & the floods in Hull

5. Has it been overall a good year or a bad year? Or simply yet another year? A bad bad bad year see 4

8. Do you have hopes and dreams for 2008 and if so what plans will you need to put in place to make them come true(for no one gets anything for nothing)  My hopes & dreams are with my dogs With the new baby, Wukee, & his big sister & also to help a friend win out of Pre Beginners

9. What you want for the World/Town/Country in 2008? That politicians get their acts together & work towards total peace & equality through out the world, making a start on ending starvation & malnutrition in the third wordl

5. Has it been overall a good year or a bad year? -  Despite the above it has been both a good and bad year. The health situation is devastating but it has also provided us with opportunities to say some of the things that we all may think but don't get round to saying. It has also given us all a different outlook on life as to what is important and what is not and has made us all make the time to spend some quality time together.

9. What you want for the World in 2008? - For people to realise that the world belongs to all of us and we all have a duty to care for it and all that is in it.

10. Anything else you would like to mention...feel free or add? People to realise that life is for living, is too short to spend it in conflict and that the time to say and do the things that mean the most to us is right now.
