Peter,
They were known as Alsatians because of the association with Hitler, who loved the breed and kept a few. (A latter day form of PC?)
Now they are again officially recognised as what they are, German Shepherd Dogs.
The breed is fantastic, and I trained 'Tosca' to traverse a 9" wide plank between two sets of steps, climbing the steps at one end and descending at the other of course. He could also scale a 10' fence. He wouldn't have qualified if he couldn't have done those things! That is true.
And in Germany, for years they used them for ground searching after lowering them in a 'breeches-buoy' from helicopters. So even though they might be scared of heights, with trust, they can overcome it.
But as I said, as to Tosca licking the ceiling then:
IFBTYBA!

The waste disposal unit went back to the plumbing shop, the aperture on our 1984 sink unit could not cope with the dimensions of the machine.
Fortunately when asking for the item I took the shops recommendation of model required with the proviso that it would be sale or return if fitting was not practical.
The fitting instruction did state there was a tool to enlarge the sink aperture but the indent of sink base was still not capable of laying below the water level when strainer was fitted.

Is this of any interest to you.

Thanks Old, our unit is two full size double bowls and right hand drainer.
I estimate if I tried a refurb I might finish up spending £5K if the wife got a look in. So your idea is NBG :wink:

I'd buy a dog to get rid of the bones.. (Leave the chicken carcasses out for Reynard.)
Rescue some battery-hens, to eat the mash I could make from food scraps. (Just think of the eggs I would get, and if I got a big enough dog, I might never get burgled.)
Peelings and so on go onto the compost heap. There's always a 'green' solution.. Although I'm not big on that and any food that gets left-over here is minimal! I just want some chickens and a dog!
