I get depressed sometimes when we are donated towels which are nicer and newer than my own family towels.  :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

I don't mind to be honest what you guys want me to do

I usually bring them into work for the dogs but thought you guys might want them for a change,

I've never asked my vets before because we usualyl go to the branch surgery and when we collected Jess they gave me a towel as they lost his I said I'd return it and they told me not to bother!

So anyone who wants them PM me your address and I'll send them - and I don't want any postage money

Fair enough, Lesley.  :cuddle: Yes, you can never have too many towels. I counted it one day and got through 15 while taking 6 puds to the vets.  :loon:. But I get depressed sometimes when we are donated towels which are nicer and newer than my own family towels.  :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

I do get some from my Vets and Andrew, my hairdresser, gave me a whole load when he swapped colour schemes recently, but it's one of those things you can never have enough of, and I didn't want Leanne thinking nobody wanted to take her up on her very kind offer.

Leslie

Not trying to disuade Leanne off her kind offer as I know how useful a plentiful supply of towels are, but have you tried the local vets for stuff like that? Our vet keeps getting people giving him old towels but because they don't have the facilities to wash them, they can't use them and pass them all on to us. Might be worth asking around.  ;)

Old towels etc always come in useful for the babies, the moreI have the more we can just use and dispose off, sometimes they are just too uurrgh to put in the washing machine.

Let me know how much you want for postage etc and I will pm you my details of no one else is interested.
