sara....just looked at this link & put it into my favourites...what a useful thing to have, thankyou.

you're welcome

Berks, Hants, give me the first 2 numbers of the phone number and I will narrow it down J:)

aren't we strange Ja;)kie that we know the sorts of places to look lol :D

I've go a book. Even stranger when you think of it. J:)

Reading, Berkshire, I think.

Reading has a 9? number does yours Sam.

after the 0118 bit, its continues with 973...thanks for your help everyone.

That's Reading Sam. My number is 0118 978???? and I'm about 7 miles from Reading.

Sam, Eversley, Hants. At least that what the book says. J:)

Fiona, according to the same book you are at Wokingham, Berks. Is it right?

That's me Eversley is about 4miles from me between Wokingham and Fleet.

Glad it's right, have alway belived it, could have been talking utter rubbish, would not have know. J:)

As you are so close, I might enlist you on a research mission Fiona, to see where these folk live....I never totally believe what some puppy buyers tell me....."we have an acre of garden= a 20 feet back yard" etc!!!

would this be an undercover operation with Fi in a mac, hat and sunglasses with binoculars round her neck :D

No Sara, it the boots and kick the door in yelling "show me your back yard, I know it's here so it's no good denying it"

lol lol
I can imagine her doing a home visit on Sam's behalf with a tape measure to check fence height and one of those wheel things that measure to see if the acerage is as described

sara & jackie....thats EXACTLY what I envisaged.....plus a small concealed camera so she can email me the results :p

I'm glad to help any way I can Sam. It's quite possible that they have got an acre of land as Eversley is really posh and right in the middle of no-where. It's also very expensive and most of the properties are detached.

If you send me their address I'll go and have a look see.

Fiona - if you do go and do a home check also check out the state of the cages/hutches of any other pets the potential owners might have. If these are somewhat neglected then the same could happen to a dog!
