Have you ever been offered pulmonary physiotherapy, Twellsy? Might be worth enquiring if not.
Sorry if that is an unwanted interference or suggestion of the bleedinā obvious.
Oh, and get well soon. Hoof those idle felines out from the prime spot by the Warm and bask in it yerself, dere.

Satisfactory indeed. I had a Labradoodle leaning on me yesterday and pinning my foot to the floor with one paw so that the head rubbing would not stop.

I was twice treated to the leanings of a Great Dane, Janie. If anything can knock one sideways, that breed can.
Weāll be off to the Scottish Borders, tomorrow. There is a house we rather fancy and a decent-looking restaurant nearby. Best wishes to Carinthia xx, for getting through another Monday, and Twellsy xx for getting through another chest infection without hospitalisation.
Best nights, Cellarites,

The dog to hold you down by sitting lovingly on your feet is the Briard. So definite is this that on one occasion, when I was waiting at a pedestrian light and two enchanting bundles of black hair came and sat themselves one on each of my feet while their owner tried to move them with their leads, I smiled and said āBriards?ā and she was so surprised that I recognised them she dropped both leads. āHow did you know that?ā she exclaimed; I pointed to them and said, āBut they are sitting on my feet,ā as all the explanation needed. They were indeed Briard pups: five months old, and just beginning to realise their duty in life, which is clearly to sit on any stationary foot which they encounter.

I would be tempted to get at least one for the same reason except that they do need exercising.

Quite a lot of exercising, regrettably/happily in my case, Fishers. Iād dearly love almost any sort of canine, but have taken to calling my treadmill āFidoā. Feck.
Off to bed,

ā¦well then, you can exercise you footsies at the same time, thus removing the need to warm them up! (Q.E.D.)
