Apparently Snoops has got loads to drink and willing to share Growler 
Good of you to invite me. 
I'm always welcome at the Kennel apparently, and Mrs Snoops#2....never understood what the hash is for tbqath
....thinks I'm cuddly, apparently, so he says like. 
(i) Growler is always welcome at the kennel
(ii) The hash (#) is a nasty American way of saying "Number"
(iii) Mrs S#2 does indeed think he is a very nice man. Her exact words having met you were "What a pleasant chap, thought you said he was bearlike ....

he is rather cuddly I suppose"
