<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 345881, member: 5833"]I think you may be right, thanks for that observation!

Thanks again. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie100" alt=":writer:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie92" alt=":turtle:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie49" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Edit: & had missed the paws entirely, seeing them as bumps on the ground.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
