“Hairy” that’s an understatment!

Very skilled, but as mad as a bucket of frogs to boot! Get it wrong and he’s a gonner.

Silver fox. the dog in question was a Bull dog. It’s not a big dog at all, a powerful breed agreed.

I got brought up German Shepards and I have have Dobermanns for the last 30 years, it’s not the dogs it’s the owners.
Treat any dog like a kid and it will become a ‘pack leader’. Not every dog has the potential to attack, The Dobermann I have has had babies eating her ears. I trust her 120%

If people can’t understand how a dogs mind works then don’t have one. Would I have seen the problem comming?
Yes I would. Sad loss of a young girls life all the same.

As far as staged payments goes when I have had work done. They have to do the work and then they have been paid. Nothing in advance. Shouldn’t leave the last payment as the largest, I have always made it one of the smaller ones. If you/they want to add extras outside the contract then beware.

I’m a smoker, cigars rather than cigs, but I don’t smoke in the house I go outside. I will not subject anyone to passive smoke. Some smokers should learn from that.

BTW what was the topic:applause:

The dark ages Paul, unless I have a contract I don’t buy and I don’t sell. Sad, but that’s how business is.

Jim, don’t got there please.

No offence taken, it’s a pity about the drift in the first place.

I apologise for my rather sharp reply.

Of course “My word is my honour” I won’t by a pint until you have bought me five.

Just ‘cos we are tight doesn’t mean we aren’t honourable:)

Jim, it wouldn’t work. Smoking in corner shops have been banned for years.
But don’t get me going with the smoking ban.
