Hi Judith and Malcolm, If Elvis and Edwin were related, it sounds as if shoes ran in the family he he. Thank you both for these fabulous stories.

Malcolm, I hope you don't mind me asking, But what year, did you have Edwin? I'm asking, Because I think I might have had one of his brothers. His name was Elvis. And he was born in nineteen eighty five. And he had four Brothers. Edwin, Eddie, Eric and Elvin. He also had a Sister called Esther. His Mother was Vida. Like Edwin, Elvis was very clever. He had a habit of lining Shoes up on his bed, And the thing was, they were usually in correct pairs. And He was a Marvellous guide Dog. He was a Yellow Lab Retriever. He died in two thousand and one. Judith.
