Then you will wish you had told him it is a naughty word and he should not use it.

By the way telling people not to search dogging has just made all those that do not know go and look.

Sounds like a voice of experience of kids picking up n shouting "Dodgy" phrases.

You can help out if you like mate, I will let you know when we are planting a few thousand daff/crocus bulbs - it will be a couple of weeks yet.

So what was it that stopped you in your tracks Mez, the cough and chest pains or that you actually got a house visit

Yes I know they can't hurt physically, but there is no way I am going anywhere near in case it drops on me.

Have look at the types of spiders we have in Australia

Be afraid be very afraid !

Talking about things that stop you in your tracks, I've just had a phone call from my other have regarding her dog, it hasn't been at all well for over two weeks now, was in the vets for two days for test last weekend, she actually brought it up to my place for the weekend, and was due to take it back to the vet this morning, seems last night it was violently sick and when she took it to the vets this morning the test results were back and the poor little sod was suffering from kidney failure and would only live for two months at the most and she would have been in a lot of pain and discomfort, so she's had to have her put to sleep, now that has really stopped me in my tracks

I'd be in a catatonic state if I saw any of them. OMG I can feel a nightmare coming on tonight. Better sleep with padding round bed.

No idea where that came from - that’s nurseries for ya!

The Canadian version of "dogging" means being lazy, goofing off. It's a short and more polite form of (dare I say it) "effing the dog." So if you are lying around on a hot summers' day, sipping on a brewskie, when you should be mowing the lawn, and someone asks you what you are doing, you say "just doggin' it, eh." But I guess "dogging" means something else that side of the pond.

Phew

- I opened an Icesave account 2weeks ago but then changed my mind about putting my savings there - if I believed in guardian angels I would be tempted to thank mine

From BBC news

Quote:

Dogging is an extension of "swinging" parties - and involves exhibitionist sex in semi-secluded locations such as car parks or country parks.

Extract from that link-
Legally, the issue of dogging is a grey area - "doggers" are committing no offence unless they are witnessed by a member of the public who can be defined as "outraged" in the eyes of the law.
The allotment car park is a venue on my doorstep - I get 'outraged' by the booze bottles they leave behind
