Now it's my turn to congratulate you Poppy
Fab bag!! I love my Roxy to bits (taking it to SM tomorrow though, as some of the inking has started to lift a little - wanted to take it now before I start using it in earnest).
Re you pooch - she's gorgeous! I too am a dog lover. We lost our rescue Border Collie some years ago now, but when feeling tired, and in wine, I get very sentimental - still dream about her occasionally. Helps that my Mum's got a completely stupid English Setter as a 'surrogate' doggie for me!
