Thanx everyone for your replies - for those of you who are not in the UK and those of you that are, I live in Suffolk on the east coast of the UK in a small town called Needham Market near Ipswich.

Its very flat - no hills just big sky which is perfect for a lump like me who doesnt walk far .

In addition to my three furry children, I also have two cats and a nutty parrot. I am lucky enough to live in the country in a small cottage attached to a very big house, and get to take advantage of the owners swimming pool when they are away. I also look after their animals - two labradors, 3 cats and 2 horses so all in all I am surrounded by the superior animal world which I often find preferable to the human one!!

Will keep posting now I have found some yorkie fans!
