My dad visited me last night
From beyond the grave.
He didn't come to reprimand me about me buying an English Single Malt Whisky
Nor did he come to moan about our beloved Rangers taking the traitor on as manager ( probably)
He didn't lecture me about smoking weed either.
So by this time you are all asking well Jimbo , tell us, why did he visit you.
That's simple
He came to tell me that Shep, his pride and joy show dog Shep, would be 66 years old today.
And that they had been reunited in the heavens where he proudly walked Shep daily, blasting about his achievements to all who would listen
Nothing changes.
It was nice to see you again Dad.

Seems like not much has changed from beyond the grave after reading your response to Eva . But, I'm sure it was nice to get that visit from your dad.

Oh no it was all my dad
He recalled Sheps birthday even after stokes and a heart attack
But sometimes didn't even know who we were

It's a night mare memory Eva
That dog ruled our lives for 16 years.
Things got better when it was 8 and he retired it from the show ring
But he had others he showed as well
Then when Shep was 12, Dad decided he could still win best in show
So he took him out of retirement.
And old Shep won,
My dad cried tears of joy.....

Just now
Oh aye
A very special bond
We never had holidays because of that dog and others he got
Trailing round the UK to dog shows from an dry early age.
Dad was successful with his dogs
Shep was the jewel in his crown
