    In my experience non-dog people always find German Shepherds a bit scary

    Why is it dog lovers can never seemingly understand others are scared of dogs, but like to bang on about mental health every minute of the day?

    I don’t think the dogs breed had anything to do with it, I made the lady jump.

    Our dogs are qualified Animal Assisted Therapy dogs and work with those that have cynophobia on a regular basis as well those with mental health issues. I think the assumption that my dogs scared the lady is typical of the obstacles we face on a daily basis due to my dogs breed and from dog lovers and non dog lovers alike. 
    When I said “we made them jump” I was pointing out how we…. Me in a bright red jacket, with 15 stone of dog on a lead managed to sneak up on anyone, not the dogs scared the life out of them. 
    You and anyone that reads this are more than welcome to come and see our dogs working with all ages and abilities and if we can help anyone with their own dog fears that offer is on table too, all fully free of charge. 
    I’m sorry if my comments were taken out of context and maybe I’ll keep them to myself in future to prevent any potential misunderstanding.

    With each passing year, the lyrics to Band Aid's "Do they know its Christmas" come under further scrutiny.

    1. Do they do know it's Christmas time at all? - Yes, Christianity is the most prevalent religion in Africa
    2. The only water flowing is the bitter sting of tears - How about the River Nile?
    3. Tonight thank God it's them instead of you - I thought we were trying to help these people?

    My Son doesnt talk much, but I'm currently finding it amusing that he's happily trying to blame me for clogging up the toilet a short while ago (IT WASNT!!), with my wife just having to play the role of amateur plumber
  • The need for a 50% / half price ready reckoner.  This was in Wilko at Bexleyheath, but I think it should have gone to the Dartford store.

    Don't you have the first essential tool you purchase when pregnancy is confirmed ?

    The Poo Knife.
  • Just had a rant on the "General Things that Annoy You" thread, about the repair work I'm having on my house.

    Was quite funny at the weekend, when my Neighbours Mum (the Neighbours havent bitched and whinged once at us), came round and had a proper rant at both my wife and the Builder - In a roundabout way, shesuggesting he was a Cowboy Builder... by saying: "Where do you tie your horse at night".

    He kept quiet, and didnt rise her comment, but privately said to me afterwards, that he wanted to applaud her for what he thought was a brilliant insult

    Being called a fcking grass cnut by another one of Londons phone snatchers in South Ken, all because I shouted at some bloke to put his phone away 🤣
  • That we all are to be given the chance to swear allegiance to King Charles from our armchairs. 

    Oh come on ... slouched there, maybe with a can of lager, burping and farting and saying, 'I swear that I will pay true allegiance to your majesty, and to your heirs and successors according to law'.  beyond parody. 
  • The contradiction in today's Mirror where it reports on the PSG ultras campaign to drive the ageing Messi out of the club - in favour of hungry young French talent.

    Then on page 71, Andy Dunn, Britain's best sports writer (their words) spends a whole page on why Man Utd must fight to sign him.

    This makes so much sense for PSG, there's so much decent talent in France and yet they are being swept up by PL clubs, Real Madrid, Leipzig etc half the time while PSG spend millions on players after one last big contract.

    Being called Karen.
    Like it’s supposed to be an insult.
    It’s the name of one of my nieces who I absolutely love.
    How on earth can I be insulted by that? 🤷‍♀️🤔🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
