Just fascinating how many different types of weather you get in England in the summer, in the space of 12 hours. I love animals. I love dogs in general, but those small purse yapping **** rodent like dogs as Pomeranian makes me lose my shit at times. Came back from a jog and ran past one of them and it came charging at me yapping. I jumped to as I was in the jogging 'zone'. So I shouted to the **** stupid woman 'watch your dog'. She answered 'it's not his fault, he gets scared'. Swear I wanted to turn and drop kick that piece of shit dog to death. Christ sometimes... not good for my blood pressure.

One of my ex work colleagues was also a keen club runner, and one day another colleague said to us "Do you two still do jogging?". My friend said "NO! We RUN!

That never bothers me that much, probably because I run so slow it probably is classed as jogging. One that annoys me is when people say the word ‘marathon’ for any kind of distance race. ”I ran a marathon yesterday” ”Wow, really!? Which one?” ”The Birmingham 10k” Edited October 2, 2019 by Paddywhack 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post rjw63 Posted October 3, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 3, 2019 Some word removed driving up the Solihull bypass at 29mph this morning at 6.30am. They had a big sticker in the back window - "disabled driver". Listen mate, if you're that disabled you can't drive at over 30mph, get a **** taxi. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 First morning where it is mildly mildly cold, and I mean mildly. In this office that means it's "bloody freezing" and requires exaggerated shoulder rubbing and hand blowing. it's not freezing though is it. It's not even cold. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno about overreact, but I hate having dogs barking at me, and having to decide whether they are scared/aggressive/'just saying hello'. It's intimidating. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 I've devised a really great technique at work, if ever I feel a bit lonely I pop my headphones in and listen to music. This causes every man and his dog to want to speak to me 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
