It wasn't unknown for blokes offering knocked off stuff to get a good thumping in my local. Thieves weren't popular.
You had to go to the right pub though. Or the wrong one depending on your point of view.
You didn't get it in my regular because all the coppers drank there. You'd get the blokes selling seafood though. 'Have you got crabs mate?' That never got old.
No, they don't - but for that the money would have had to have been in a Waitrose carrier bag, or perhaps a Liberty's store bag. Essex girls are very discerning.Quote:

Vet advised that it was "too early" to be thinking of putting Tia down, so she is now back home - she has had a couple of minor episodes during the day, so I am preparing myself for another rough night.
Really sorry to hear that. Guy, and as an animal lover who's been in that situation before, I sympathise with what you're going through.
Anyway, I hope Tia gets better soon and you can enjoy a more relaxed and stress-free day, and also night's sleep.
Marco.
Cheers Marco - much appreciated
Hope your doggie will be OK Guy.
