I won't let SWMBO walk our dog on her own but to be honest our 40kg boy wouldn't let anyone near either of us, would love some scrote to try when I'm out with him.

Or.....who the fûck has owned a magazine rack within the last fifty years? 

This useful little helper can also hold your LP's and 78's

You'd know 

The old record player would hold five or six 45RPM singles at one time.

Yes but, if you overloaded the spindle, two or three might drop at once, sending the stylus skidding along the record. 

Oh the joys of the multi change Dansette.

If the record was scratched and the needle jumped across it you could put a 2p coin on top of the arm to hold it down.
Those were the days.

Silver shilling or, if really scratched, two bob bit.

Threepenny bits were quite hefty as i recall.

Yeah, and 80 of those little buggers in a quid.

But I gues 960 farthings would weigh more

I always found one of my mum's silver joey's too light

You should try it with one third of a farthing, which I still have.

Just had to Google them .... I'd never heard of one.

But I wasn't around when they were in use

dog stealing as all of us know is rife at the moment. a farmer near to where i live has had 3 working dogs taken. a chipped collar is the nearest one can get to tracking an animal along with micro chipping. apparently there is nothing to inject into an animal that allows something to trace a missing dog. i would of thought someone would have come up with something

  since starting this thread my son rang me & as he were near to where i lived this morning he asked would i be at home if he called. anyway he told me of a neighbour that bought a puppy for £2,000 and when they took it to a vet to have it chipped etc it turned out to be already registered & was reported stolen. they had to give the pup up & loose their money.

We have had our last four Boxers from Boxer rescue, far better to give a rescue a home than pay inflated prices for fashionable puppies.
