The dogy doc, a good hard slap and "We're all in it together!"



10 December 2012

Oh dear, how sad, what a pity, never mind!  Why?  Well, Pip-pup is going to see doggy doc this afternoon for the first of her jabs.  We'll be getting her micro-chipped too before long.  I think they do it with the second of the injections.  She has settled in very well now and is running us crazy.  I'm sure we will manage though ;-)))

The first sentence stands sound for something else too.   The current 24 hour drinking that is allowed here in the UK hasn't done us any favours has it? We have just sat and watched a programme I recorded last week some time.  It's called Costa Del Street Crime.  It follows Spanish cops as they deal with the huge amount of drunken British yobs on holiday and those who live out there.   

The drunks think they can behave in exactly the same way out there as they do back here.  In the show we have just watched one drunken girl slapped a cop.  Here she would be arrested and charged with assault, fined and walk away laughing.  In Spain the punishment was instant and painful - she got a hard slap across the face!  She then began crying; but I wonder, was it the slap and the pain from it that was causing it or was it the shock that she can't get away with things as she would do back home? 

It's the sort of instant justice that is needed her in the UK to my mind!  But hang on a minute ...  If a copper did that here in the UK, then he would be charged with assault and the girl would get away with it.  Yet out there it is allowed.  He was after all defending himself.  Spanish police don't take any crap from anyone; British police have to put up with it all.  Time for a change here in the UK methinks!  But hand on another minute ...

Spain is a member of the EU, just as we are.  So how come the Spanish cops get away with acting like that when the British cops would be jumped on by the human rights movement.  There is something serious wrong with a system that allows different countries to act in a different way to others.  Or is it that the British government doesn't have the balls to stand up to the EU and the human rights farts and go ahead with the changes.      

There are changes coming about over housing and council tax benefits.  If a single person or a couple are living in social housing with more than one bedroom, then they will lose some of their benefits.  But there's a problem with it isn't there?  You see, if those same people want to move to a one bedroom property they can't do so.  That is simply because there isn't enough one bedroom properties for them all to move into.  I'm wondering though; is this just aimed at social housing tenants or does it reach to those in their own homes?  To me this one stinks too!  It's another stick to hit the disadvantaged with Britain, yet another way of cutting the welfare bill and hitting the least able to deal with it the hardest.  So much for us all being in this together!!!

Today's photo is from last Saturday down on the Market.  This guy ... 

doesn't look very happy at all does he?

And red hot funny ...
 
A fire fighter was on an engine outside the station when he noticed the little girl next door in a little red wagon with little ladders hung off the sides and a garden hose tightly coiled in the middle.

The girl was wearing a fire fighters helmet and the wagon was being pulled by her dog and her cat. The fire fighter walked over to take a closer look. "That sure is a nice fire truck", the fire fighter said with admiration. "Thanks," said the little girl. The fire fighter looked a little closer and noticed the girl had tied the wagon to her dog's collar and to the tomcat's testicles.

"Little Partner," the fire fighter said, " but if you were to tie that rope around the cat's collar too, I think you could go faster." The little girl replied thoughtfully, "You're probably right, but then, I wouldn't have a siren...."
