BB, my first chickens were all named after royalty...Ethel Red the Unready, Eggbert, Charlie, Big Beth, Little Beth, George (the only black hen) and so on. All the schnauzers were named after German admiralty....The turtles named after the nearest twon to their capture (usually somewhere in Georgia on a raod trip). Now my rifles are another story!but a Royalist

I went in the same direction mary when I named my new puppy...Irwin von Rommel. I think a good name for a German shepard. But I usally call him coconut head beacause he has a head as big as one if not bigger.

Lots of shepherd owners in this game! Victor has grown into his 90+ pounds (at 8 months) so it's no big thing to us, and we know he's a pussy cat, but everyone else gets the strangest look on their face when they meet him.malinois wrote:I went in the same direction mary when I named my new puppy...Irwin von Rommel.

259...Onyx looks like my Zsa-Zsa in the picture on the breeders page. Although I do not think I would ever see her that close to a ball and it not be much smaller.

Re: Way off topic, but I just gotta visit New Zealand!
You're all welcome here.
bring some 'churros'.
I could eat them all day with cinnamon and sugar.
(must be the Mex Silhuetas Metallicas in me !)
You might want to wait for the weather to warm up, as we keep getting snow, and southerlies off the Antarctic.
This is what Mary's home town looks like from space.
Fitting, on this 'Moon Dance' anniversary weekend.
About 1 million people live on the whole South Island.

cheers,
Sean

Snow down to sea level is fun !
And the people here are something special.
We aren't whingeing Poms, we're hardy Colonials. A bit more 'couth' than our Aussie mates accross the ditch, and we don't talk funny like them know-it-all Safricaners.
Heil Amerika,... New Zealand uber alles !

Sean,
I'm sure the wee bit more couth than the Aussie's is true....now about them know it all Safricaners, anyone that can survive sailing in that water has to knwo a wee tad.
So BB maybe you should visit NZ, just make sure you do so int he wet season!!!

Snow is something that you should go visit. It should not come and visit you.
