  1. i picked up a tiny hoglet one summer a couple of years ago, he was about 3-4 weeks old when i found him, spark-out on someone's driveway and about half an hour off karking it. he was so ill even the fleas had abandoned him. took him home, gave him sugar water to revive him, then fed him on cat food for a few days til i found our local petshop stocked hedgehog food. greedy little bugger, cost a mint to feed. kept him in a box in my bedroom, he'd sit on my lap while i was on the comp, and played catch with a beer bottle top. did a lovely job of getting the fluff out from under the cupboards wh
  2. out ferreting with a couple of friends in the freezing bloody cold, went to grab a bunny in a net, lost my footing & skidded into a ditch on my arse, tried to get up again, while rather foolishly having another grab at the bunny, arsed over again, as the rabbit slipped the net & shot over my stomach down the next hole. still haven't lived that one down... out lamping one night with a mate, walking to the next field, i didn't see the bank... but the dog on the other end of the lead did, and jumped off it. cue me doing my best superman impression, landing face down in the mud 6 feet awa
  3. mum has got a clearview stove in the front room, and a little victorian bedroom fire in the living room. she burns a mix of coal & wood, coal at the bottom to keep it going, logs on top. it does make the glass on the clearview not very clear though! dad scrubs it with a sponge scourer covered in god-knows-what, and he's scratched the glass to buggery! i found vinegar & newspaper does the job beautifully without damaging the glass. but dad knows best... since the back boiler on the stove cracked they've just been leaving all the doors open, and it heats the house better than when th
  4. no bud this is a coyou. how old is that pic & where was it taken? got a few mates in Coypu Control who'd be interested in that!
  5. where's Ditch when you need him? anyone remember the "King Rat" competition he started a few years ago? i had to start packing a tape measure when i took the little dog out for a stomp. He'd have had that photo analysed, (and disallowed!) in minutes!
  6. minority? there's billions of them!
  7. the guy flogging blue blankets must have made a mint...
  8. Same here mate.....I was asked years ago when the bird flu thing hit Fife. I declined to go on the Scottish news. My Grandad did though. he must have been some age ??????????????? i believe that LAZYBASTARD is subtly calling you an old git.
  9. got dragged off the streets of norwich & into the Anglia TV studios to make up the numbers in the "Trisha" audience a couple of times. had a small part in a Danny Dyer film a few years ago, that's the biggest thing i've done so far.
  10. i was brilliant at that kinda thing when i was a kid, made a mint flogging crap at school. out of date fishing glow lights off the army surplus stall at the booty, 10p each, flogged em at school discos for a pound, went home with £60+ in my pocket every time. me & my bro were always getting in trouble for our dodgy dealings. seem to have lost my touch as i've got older... stuck with a 5'x9' persian rug rolled up in my hallway... it'll probably end up in my bedroom...
  11. because she said one tab once a day which she also stuck on the front of the box. Then i looked back in the box an realised there was an extra 5 tablets. Alarm bells started ringing so i called the vets up an the silly cow just said sorry my mistake it was ment to be 2 tabs a day not one!!!!! so, hang on, what you're saying is, if i understand the above-quoted statements correctly, when you called the vet she said "sorry, the dog should be having 2 tablets a day", you had enough to give her 2 per day, but you're only giving her 1 tablet per day, and complaining about wrong dosages?
  12. yep, that does it for me too. the train bit reminds me of what happened to a good friends beddy/whippet pups, i find it hard to watch now...
  13. my best friend is a teacher, and once temporarily looked after a lassie collie that belonged to one of her pupils parents. it was called Tiggy. she used to walk her & couldn't work out why she wouldn't come when called, til she walked the dog with the owner... my friend shouted "Tiggy!", no response. the owner shouted " Here Tiggy-wiggy-woo-oooooo!" and the dog came back. my friend decided to keep the dog on the lead after that, and was very glad when the owner was able to take the dog back!
  14. one of the mates......we hear ye..... So he p-p-p-p-p-p-p-icked up a penguin.... definitely wasn't me. i just used to get drunk & pass out on the picnic tables outside the pub. far too lazy to cross the road, climb a fence, walk through the zoo, climb into the penguin enclosure, catch one, and then do the whole lot in reverse with a penguin under my coat!
