Dashing young Lochinvar, a social-register dachshund, will steal your heart in one of the cleverest adult picture (and text) books to come along in many a year. And Vasiliu's hilarious drawings capture the spirit of the sophisticated canine set and their equally abandoned owners. For here is an exposé of Lochinvar's giddy life with "Mumsy"--a disarming divorcee, the former Mrs. Rippingham Cavanaugh III. Women envy her. Children adore her. Even Wall Street men of distinction dream of finding her tucked into their Christmas stockings. Why? Because Mumsy not only has a million dollars but she's built that way as well.

Mumsy's friends (and even her servants) are equally beguiling "characters." Her ex-husband has been banished to the Yale Club where he Whiffenpoofs away his lonely hours with other ex-wayward sons of Old Eli. But on hand to vie for Mumsy's affections is Sir Kedzie-Cowles, who sports an utterly devastating mustache and a walking stick which holds six fluid ounces, a jolly arrangement indeed because Mumsy is on a diet of mostly martinis. Lochnvar's own love affair is hardly so rewarding--his Afghan lady friend is as tall as a baby giraffe. Life, however, has its compensations. He belongs to the Bone-of-the-Month Club; he is always welcome at Hattie Carnegie's and the Chase Manhattan Bank; his tranquilizers are candy coated, and Mumsy's heart is as big as the sky itself.

Their Christmas party turns out to be the high point of the year. Too high, really! Even a woman of the world like Mumsy can find herself blushing.

But in the end we promise that you, too, will say, with Mumsy, "Lochinvar, I love you!"

Great hose
Size: 50ft, Color: Black
I love this hose, I have one from years ago wearing out. This is a different quality, so will last longer. It is very lightweight when it detracts and easy to put away in the hose bowl. I also like the fact it came with a nice nozzle. Will purchase another one that is longer after my green house is built.

Easy to use for older folks - and FUN.....???
Size: 100ft, Color: Black
Love the light weight. I can turn the spigot just a bit and the hose will grow in length as i walk around to the front of my house. It's just enough to get a good drenching without knocking my plants around. However, the nylon covering snags easily, and I can see that I may need to replace the hose quicker than I had hoped. I'll probably get the same brand of i have to do so. The sprayer is decent quality, and its multi-functions are handy. I kind of like watching it shrink as I empty it and wrap it up. Never thought a garden hose would actually add a little fun to the chore!

Nice, light hose with nozzle
Size: 25ft, Color: Black
Nice short expandable hose. I had a longer expandable one which got a big leak. So I bought this shorter one since I only use it to water the plants on the patio. So far, it works great; but people have to know that short means short. The nozzle fits this hose; my other nozzle is too big. So having the short hose and the right nozzle in one package works for me.

Love this light weight flexi hose!
Size: 50ft, Color: Black
Great hose. This is my third because the only downside is that the area connected to the spigot can crimp and ultimately leak. It’s easy to keep that from happening if you are the only one using the hose. But if others, like your kids or a garden helper use the hose, they don’t always recognize that.
