I prefer shopping online, there is no chance of meeting some miserable old sod telling me about his operations, then bragging about using inconvenient transport just because he can.

like your style. wish there was more like you about and less of those mobility scooters where the only disability many have is idleness or fatness. not my words but ones my step son who had spina bifeda used about them. he,s quite happy to do his thing pushing himself along in the old fashioned wheelchair.

Oh Less, as Dick Emery used to say, "You are awful but I like you". How much of an old sod are you by the way?

The food I bought from petshop.co.uk wasn't all that more expensive than from the supermarkets, plus I'm getting the flavours she likes rather than a box of 12 with 4 flavours when she only likes one out of the 4.

Something wrong there mate seeing as you're a Hound type of person, you're letting a fussy pussy get the upper hand!

a lot of that is because they are lonely people and need to talk to someone and you might be the first person they have spoke to for days. it might feel inconveniant to you as it does to me as i quite enjoy my own company who certainly prefers being a loner than being in big groups of folk.
