I've been asked to change my avatar cos it's offensive......so I though I'd put it to the vote.. post below with your preferences... Option 1.

Where is Bandit????
(Preview)
Just been looking at the homeless dogs page and I definitely cannot see Bandit. Is there good news? I hope so, I've been drooling over him for so long, it would be lovely for him to have got his forever home. -- Edited by Jackie D at 17:36, 2007-06-02

I learned something today
(Preview)
Apparently, an alligator can outrun a human on land. Now, I knew that it could easily outswim a human, but I didn't realise that it was quicker out of the water too. This means that you'd have to be a bloody quick cyclist if you wanted to beat an alligator in a triathlon.

As you've no doubt seen, Dave has stepped down from his post of Homing Coordinator. I wondered whether the combined weight of the GAL community could persuade him to stay. Okay, so he's already given 6660 man hours and rehomed 621 dogs. But we want more, more, MORE!!!!! Sign below if you want him to...
