Totes cool Craig, thanks for sharing.
Thanks VJ, AW and WOL.
How good also WA, haven't surfed that wave yet, looks like a dream!
Craig photographs his fellow trekker climbing the dune to search for her missing companion.
After finding her friend, they set off into the setting sun looking for shelter from the Empire in a hidden desert Resistance outpost.
Ha!
Very good Wally. I did say that you needed to tone those colours down Craig :)

Absolute wanker!
Roadkill, how's he tipped off authorities with that crazy rant video and is now arrested. What a duck egg..
Andrew Tate is the worst type of influencer. Millions of teenage boys who idolise him will soon be young men with dangerous attitudes towards women.
Haha, I reckon that's 1-0 to Greta.

Last year was not such a good one for my nearest and dearest. Getting older, aging parents and the issues that come with all that. However, I don't want to dwell on the shit that happened, but rather on one of the positives, being the good news thread and all.
Just under 13 months ago we adopted mad pup. So a year or so later where are we? Well, he doesn't eat shoes any more. He has stopped shitting on the rugs. He sometimes comes back when called, just as long as there is not anything more interesting to be found elsewhere. He loves stirring up the old boy but still allows him to "win". He loves to walk and run and never stops. He beats most dogs on our beach, only a greyhound pointer x bests him over 50 m. He's a delight really, still mad as fuck but such a positive in our lives. Not pretty, but he does get attention. Here's to our dogs, love em.
Nice one, Blackers. Dogs keep us sane. Hope the other stuff get better.
I'll take a leaf out of your book and not dwell on the fact that our old boy is dying, but that we've had 13 years of unconditional love (both ways, of course), fun, madness and joy.
These days he spends about 20 hours a day sleeping and can barely get up. But he still wags his tail and eats his food, bless him.
Good onya Kelly , if you’re not feeling it , don’t paddle out , plus made another guys day .
Absolutely nothing to prove out there. Good on him.

Cheers IB. We keep moving forward.
Hope the remaining time with your mate is quality time. Beautiful photo.
How good are dogs! It's hard IB, got no words for you except when the time comes it's hope it's peaceful.
Blackers, great little write up on the pup. He sounds like a beauty.
Our little Lab has slotted right in and is part of the family. We also have another new Mini-Schnauzer pup and they're as thick as thieves now.
Dogs are the best. So generous.
Cheers, Zen.
Nothing lasts forever, and today is terribly hard, but we will always remember this boy:
My condolences to you and your family IB , always sad when our family pets move on .
Yep, very , very sad and heartbreaking.
All the best for you and yours IB.
Thank you, Supa and FR.
He went downhill fast the last 10 days, and was losing his faculties and dignity, so we had to act. Not easy, though.
Sobering stuff, IB. Hopefully the memories keep returning to all the funny things he did.
Losing a family member is always hard condolences IB.
:( Bummer IB, thoughts are with ya.
Horrible time to go through IB, I'm sure he had a fantastic life with you
Thoughts are with you IB. A sad day.
Its a deep in the bones sadness when you have to put down your mate.
A big hug from the Swellnet community IB.
Good morning, and thank you for all your kind words.
It's was very strange to go to sleep without the gentle snoring of an old hound in the background, and to wake up without him.
After a wonderful long life, he had few pleasures left, and the last few days he couldn't even enjoy sniffing around in his fave spots, couldn't get comfortable in his bed, and was deeply ashamed after pooing on the floor. It was definitely time go.
Life goes on, until it doesn't.

Island Bay. My condolences to you and Mrs. IB. He and you guys had a great life together. Hardest thing for us mere humans to do is to end an animals life, totally heartbreaking, but we know when it’s time, plenty of abnormal signs tell us that. I imagine you’ll have many thoughts running through your mind over the next few days, months, some sad but mostly joyous ones triggered by some visual or mental cue. He was a happy dog and that’s what they do, make you Happy. All the best AW.
My condolences, sending some love your way to you and your family IB
IB, I'm really sorry for your loss. Dogs are indeed the best people.
IB hope you have the fond memories, the sense of loss will be there for a long while but the happy memories will keep repeating too.
Old dogs are full of wisdom, they remember it all and know exactly how to be your best mate, we feel your loss IB
So sorry for your loss, IB. Words fall short. Take care of you and yours.

Udo. How are you ? . Finally our nation is starting to make minor steps forward with matters like this one and others yet resolved. Cannabis cultivation, geez , most of the bloody country is growing a plant or two. AW.
I thought Jesus was an architect previous to his career as a prophet?
I wouldn't believe anything Gibby Haynes says.
