| "Football is better than weeding!"
That's a picture of our Shakira playing football on my vegetable plot. The old carpet is mulching some weeds before I plant some leeks there. We have just spent FORTY flipping Euros for 2 dog licenses this morn. Apparently it pays for dog wardens and homes for stray animals. Don't think you need a dog license in the UK any more, do you? Think it used to be 37p or seven shillings and sixpence or something?
I had to laugh when I Googled 'Irish dog licenses' today. It said you can have a 'lifetime' license for 140 Euros. Is that for the dog or me?
It reminds me of that brilliant Python 'fish license' sketch, way back when we could laugh and joke. I wish there was an Open University degree in British comedy. What's your favourite comedy show?

I never knew you had to have a dog licence in Ireland.....

Hi John, Yes you also have to have a dog licence in northern Ireland. I agree with you that every dog owner should pay for a licence. It pays for dog wardens, neutering and spaying and dog homes.
