EST Ivybridge Donkey Quiz Night - For Humans
Steve & Jock Discussing an Answer

EST Ivybridge Donkey Quiz Night – For Humans

The PFA (Parents and Friends Association) who support the Ivybridge Branch of the Elizabeth Svendsen Trust for Children and Donkeys (EST) with their  fundraising and fun events throughout the year organised the  annual Quiz Night which was held on Saturday 3rd March 2012 which was the first event for 2012. It took place in the indoor arena at the centre.

Myself, my husband and two of our friends, Jock and Heather,  decided to have an evening out for some brain workout and the four of us formed a team.  There were around 20 teams who took part and we were sat at table number 13!!!  Was it lucky or unlucky for us – please read on.

Dog Reference For Daisy

Daisy’s owners holiday in France every year, and  last year when they went away, and Daisy  had not yet got her pet passport as she was a fairly new addition to their family, I offered to look after her for the two weeks whilst they were away, so we got to know her quite well.  She now has her pet passport and her owners want to take her with them this year.  They stay in a Gite and are friendly with the owner, who does allow pets to stay but only if they are well behaved.  As Daisy’s owners wanted to confirm that she was okay I was asked if I would write a doggy reference.  Well, I don’t think I have ever heard of anyone writing a doggy reference, but I naturally agreed.  Having said I would, what do you actually write?  [Read more…] about Dog Reference For Daisy
