Surely the mark of a man is not his stature but his character. Look at the Ghurkas not the biggest but they have hearts of lions.

Enjoy your weekend and try and relax sounds like you have had a stressful week.

Oh by the way we prefer to be called Vertically Challenged.

You might. I'm f***ed if I do.

And my weekend gets 5hlttier,....

My neighbours parked their 4x4 against my mums car, so I inform them , if there is any damage, they are liable (my mum is very precious about her car, and to be honest the 4x4 was carelessly parked)

I return home last night to a vitriol-filled email from the neighbours wife, who throws loads of personal criticism my way. I never even spoke to her

So I go round today with a bottle of wine and apologise to the bloke, "But his wife is still very upset"

I think I have the moral high-ground here, but I also made the first move to reconcile,.....and perhaps that is why I've made her feel worse today.

Ball well and truly in her court,....and I didn't even speak to her about parking of their 4x4 in the back of my mum's car

Neighbour took the wine,...so I wait

Will they drink it, return it under cover of darkness, or smash it through my car window ?

Attached photo of neighbours parking attempt. My mum has a disabled badge and couldn't even open her boot to get her walking stick out.

So,..I'm walking the dogs in local woods this morning. I am aware of recent rumours there is a part-owner of the woods who has threatened dog-walkers verbally and with a shotgun on odd occasions.
I met one dogwalker who explains the man is very unpleasant and threatening, but she thought he probably wouldn't threaten a big fat man like me.

So I go further into the woods, and the shotgun mans car is parked at the far end. I am concerned because he might shoot at my two dogs. But I have no cause to be alarmed, as I meet 3 other neighbours of mine, and the shotgun man is obviously swerving us as the dogs and people are very noisy.
Which is a shame (in a way) because I'm in the kind of mood to be able to cope with people threatening me.

Am going to go into the woods tomorrow, without the dogs. Keeping on the public footpaths. What could go wrong ?

A full sized unexploded bomb this time..... and you're on your own if you find one after the comments about my age with the last one!

I am with you on this one. And as for the wine, that was a nice touch although I probably would have poured it over her head!

I despise 4x4 drivers, Range Rovers are by far the worst. How they are allowed on the road let alone passed their test is one of life's mystery's.

 


Some people are like Slinkies … not really good for anything, but you can’t help smiling when you see one tumble down the stairs.

You're not into gross generalisations I see

Got back from walking the dogs in the woods this morning. No sign of the bloke with the shotgun.
Spoke to a dogwalker I was chatting to yesterday, and she has contacted the police again regarding the man in the woods with the shotgun.
A witness account from about 3 months ago has been added to the police file, where a dogwalker was prevented from walking on a public footpath, by this mad man firing his shotgun in the air.

So I get back from my walk to find my bottle of wine on my doorstep (returned from the neighbour).

Some people just can't play nicely. A shame, but I can do no more.

Did I also mention I got a 5hltty email from the Allotment Association last week ?
The letter said I had breached Allotment protocol, by not putting suggestions through the Committee (of which I am a member).

It's a good job I have broad shoulders to carry this much 5hlt this week
