An achingly funny novel on modern motherhood and married life, as told through the e-mail correspondence of two sisters. When your family snapshots resemble NSPCC ads and it takes a quick-witted au pair to prevent your guests from burning alive, you have well and truly arrived in motherhood... Charlotte and Nell are sisters who live thousands of miles apart, each coping, or rather not coping, with the incalculable demands of motherhood. The daily battle to avert domestic disaster and keep up with the Dickenson-Jones's is abated only by their hilariously candid e-mail exchange. They address some crucial questions, such as: if your son hasn't noticed that you've given Benny the hamster away, it is safe to assume he's forgotten? What is the unassailable law of nature that guarantees a cool, elegant paint, chosen with a loving homemaker's care, will dry to the colour of greying ham? And will a glass of chardonnay make it all better? Charlotte and Nell are separated by continents but united in tales of over-busy lives and family mishaps - how to cope with children demanding their attention 24/7, husbands who are oblivious to the madness their world has become, as well as coming to terms with the fact that they are no longer the youthful free spirits they once were. And God Created the Au Pair is perhaps what Bridget Jones might write if she got married, had children and began to wonder whether being single had its advantages after all...Binding Type: Paperback

Best dog toy for extremely aggressive chewers!!!
Size: Large
Absolutely a great dog toy for extremely aggressive chewers! I have a pig pitbull that loves to chew! He has chewed through every toy I have ever bought pretty much right after I give it to him. This thing is durable he hasn’t made a hole or a tear in it yet and he hasn’t made went to town on it when I first gave it to him! I’m impressed!

Kong Works Well...
Size: Medium
Our German shepherd chews every ball we've ever purchased. The other balls are easier to throw for this 75yr old lady. But this Kong ball will out live any other ball I've ever gotten him. A tennis ball doesn't last an hour. Some other name brands takes him a full day to chew up. So far he's tried but gets nowhere with his new Kong. I seriously believe he just might not be able to chew this one up. Thanks Kong. I got the medium and it's a large ball.

Good For Heavy Chewers So Far
Color: Onyx Black - Most Durable
Solid quality. My Doberman is a power chewer and I am looking for a toy that he can't destroy in 2 seconds. If a ball lasts more than an hour it is a miracle. It has a sturdy design and is more heavy weight than the other "non-destructible" balls he has. He has only had his ball for one day so we will see how long this ball lasts him. It is the size of a tennis ball, firm, little to no bounce, and seems built for heavy chewing.

Great Product, 2 years and running!
Color: Onyx Black - Most Durable
It’s been almost 2 years and my dogs haven’t destroyed them yet. I have a Pitbull and a Pit/Cosro mix. They destroy every toy we’ve given them, except these toys. Great product 100% worth the money
