She does indeed! They all look a bit scary when they're chomping though. They are stunning, are they all BCCs? Hercules looks like he has peaks on his first couple of saddles.

(Still learning to distinguish between BCC and BCI!)

Isn't a widow's peak something to do with hair? I'm sure my mum has used that term before

Yes it is. I used to have one when my hair was receding from the sides leaving a V shaped bit in the middle. Now it's all buggered off.

I wonder what it means? Where the term came from?

Don't worry Chris - at least you're a man. Imagine if your hair went and you were a lady

I would make an ugly lady!

According to Wikipedia, the name comes from the resemblance to a widow's headdress, and if a woman had one it was thought to denote that she would outlive her husband.

Women outlive their husbands anyway - men are more prone to accidents like falling on their wife's kitchen knife when he left the toilet seat up just one time too many

You're a big girl now, Kaz. I would have thought you'd worked out how to put a toilet seat down

I don't mind the toilet seat thing - Lewy just does my head in by leaving cupboard doors and drawers open all the time. WHY??????? Pure laziness I'm sure
