Thanks for that spath. No I didn't know about the petition, but it's not the first petition that the Government (at the time) have been presented with and totally ignored.. I don't know what it will take really. Also on Mail online a pet rabbit died from fear and there is a video of a terrified collie who the owner is terrified will also die from fear as he shakes throughout the whole din and can't be pacified. There will be many, many more.
I spent the whole weekend flicking through and watching stuff from Netflix and Prime. Only time I can get the TV to myself is when Little Tiggs is at his dads so I make the most of it :o)
