Thanks, Brian. Wonderful gallery chaps - just what I needed. Those Caribou antlers are quite amazing. Our cat, 19 year old Tiger, was very poorly on Monday so I took him to the Vet yesterday. Sadly, total kidney failure & he had to be put down. Alan C On 07-Aug-19 08:59 AM, Brian W wrote:

In the morning. Well, it’s actually early afternoon this Saturday, but that spoils the alliteration. We didn’t hire a wedding photographer. Too expensive for a couple of septuagenarians. So we’re counting on the small number of friends and relatives present to shoot a lot of cell phone pics.

He's an American Cocker Spaniel, I'm not sure that I can recommend one.   The breed can be quite active, (kind of an understatement).  On the other hand it is one of the breeds that you can find fairly easily as a rescue.  He is a great friend, and now that he's older had mellowed quite a bit.
