Spot on Red Glitter. I have tights older than the receptionist at my doc's

True story, i swear. Went to doc recently with bad arm. He asked "Does it hurt if you raise your arm in the air"?

I said "Yes, it does".

He said "Well don't do it then". True.

Husband once complained to him that his feet felt numb. Doc told him to buy bigger shoe's----Honestly!

My biggest moan is going to the pharmacy with your prescription & you get served by a spotty 16 yr old who asks:

Have you taken these before?

Are you on any other medication?

The best one, Do you know how to take them? Is it not tempting to say "Yes, I shove them up by backside", but I have never had the nerve to do it.

With 3 dogs & new pup now, i could lynch non poo pickers.

Taking this pack into the park, they run off in various directions. You watch them like hawks & up above in the distance you see one of your pack strike the pose for a poo.

Your eyes are glued to the spot---You follow, poo bag at the ready---you arrive at the spot your dog put her butt down---You pick it up---You realise it's cold poo---It belongs to another dog who left the scene days ago. Your nearly sick, the bile rises in your throat cos you have picked up some selfish pigs dogs poo for them.---You then scan every blade of grass for your dogs poo---can you find it? No--it vanishes into thin air.

This begs the question---why do i not bat an eye lid at picking up my dogs poo yet retch at others??

I heard on the news--they are doing away with poo bags---it's apparently not going to be an offense to leave your dog poo where it lays any more. The reason----the government says plastic poo bags do not biograde in land fill sites. Far better to leave poo to the elements as it will biograde quicker. I look forward to being awash with dog poo.

You never see white dog poo any more do you???

OSCAR

Actually i don't agree with that . Unless they make more doggie parks where you can actually let your dog have a dump i can't see it really working . At the moment there are very few (parks) and if all dogs just drop and go there would be a never ending stream of s:(:(:(

I can honestly say i have never left a poo there without cleaning it up:yh_sick.

Why can't they make poo bags that degrade easily or all plastic bags for that matter .

They can actually. My friends dad ran a company which helped develop plastic that would biodegrade in water. They used it first in hospitals to put dirty laundry in. They bundled dirty laundry into these huge plastic bags and put them straight into the washing machines. The plastic disolved and the laundry was washed. It saved loads of people from having to unpack crusty clothes from hospital hampers! Ewww!

I see they now use it for dishwasher tablets and those little liquid things they put in home washing machines. The hot water completely disolves the plastic so the contents can be used without being touched.

Just thinking more on this topic. It would be good if your shopping bags could be made of this stuff because you could just bring home your shopping and then wash the bags down the drain to dissolve. However, if you get caught in a shower of rain coming home, all your shopping bags would dissolve! :wah::wah:

That's my biggest gripe too, I think we should have poop police.. next time they do that put it in a paper back and leave it on their door step. Better still, don't use a paper bag..

Hi Raapunzel,

Yes, the name OSCAR. Well the truth is, i have the most beautifull pedigree persian cat called Oscar. He has grace, style, good breeding but as a kitten he is prone to those "Funny five minutes". You know the thing-----manically belting round the house, howling for more food--very similar to me i like to think.

As with Oscar & myself, my husband believes we are at our best when asleep. Then the world is calm.

Due to the size of Oscar, we believe he is half cat half pit bull---again similar to myself.

He will be entering his first proffessional cat show soon----fingers & paws crossed.

I had long forgotten about this thread.

I got my own back on the doc one day when discussing losing weight.

He asked "What's the lowest weight you have ever been"?

I said "6lb 12oz"

Another gripe of mine in the pharmacy when the spotty 16 yr old is asking you all these questions.

Another one is "is this medication for yourself"? Answer-- "No, that's why it has my name & address on it".

I have been tempted to say "No, could you actually deliver it please? c/o The Tora Bora mountains, Afganistan, name--Bin Laden"

However, going by the intelligence of some of these shop assistants, i have no doubt, they would actually try to do that via directory enquiries, so i say nothing.

No your not round the twist Carolly. I happen to think that if you have to walk one dog, might as well walk 6. Groom one cat, might as well groom 7.

But yes, oh the brushing & the grooming!! Oscar has exceptionally thick black hair down to the ground, the other persians, not too bad. Come grooming time, on sight on the brushes & combs, Oscar legs it. He knows if he hides some-where dark, being black, i have no chance. Once i get him, the pit bull cross comes out in him. Enter "Auntie Kirsty". Oscar in a head lock---job done.

All my cats are resue, some in a sorry state. Peanut was so matted on arrival, she was put right under & it took the vet an hour to shave her completely bald. We mistook her for the hot water bottle for weeks until she sprouted again, but now she has had all teeth removed bar one fang. Why do these people neglect them so?

OSCAR came from persian rescue. He was dearly loved by his owners & in tip top condition but the husband developed a severe allergy. They so did not want to part with him & the husband paid for private allergy tests. Sadly, it proved to be OSCAR'S fur.

Shortly after getting him, my husband developed an allergy. Tough, I just bought him some "Piriton" anti-allergy. You can see where my priorities lie.

OSCAR:D

OSCAR:DGood on you girl;)

Somebody said to me many years ago that they believed that somebody could insult you....be the neighbour from hell and more BUT if they like animals there is something good about that person and I have found this to be very true over the years.I dont seem to get on to well with people who dont like animals but seem to be attracted to people who do.Just my opinion of course;)

Spot on Carolly, could not agree more. With my brood, i judge visitors by the response of my dogs & cats to them. If they are all over them--Great, they are a friend. If they go no-where near them---neither do i again.

As for neighbours-- mine hates me. He is no animal lover. He is convinced that i actually train my cats to dig his flower beds to poo in them just to annoy him.

What he doesn't understand is that every other cat in the vicinity comes to my flower beds for a poo.

We have a pack of foxes visit the garden every night that we buy chicken for & make them jam sarnies--they have a very sweet tooth. Just recently been rewarded by mum bringing out the babies to show us. However, note to Alpha male fox leader---- Could you please have a word with your pack & poo elsewhere other than outside my front door? This allows my dogs to roll in it at the first opportunity. Thankyou "Clarkson" (name of alpha male)

I never knew this until recently. If over fed, foxes will bury excess food. This explains my elderly neighbour digging up a sausage in his potato beds. Later, finding a half eaten kebab buried under his geraniums.
