I would like to say , again, I was not making a personal attack on anybody

Boxer lover - you are great and we love you.

Thank you all so much for all the incredibly charitable and kind things you have said about me. As I am now considering a political career I think I should leave the Pug conversation alone (made me laugh so much I hurt myself!).
I like a good debate (no, really, I do) and think it helps us to become better friends and more understanding and tolerant of each others views. There is no reason we can't all disagree and still enjoy talking to each other. You are all so polite and kind - this entire site and all the people on it are a joy. Long may it go on.
