You can wait at the end.... social distancing so wouldn't be near it anyway regardless as you should be standing back where it tells you to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If their messages stretch several feet back, and the divider is at the front, it's not easy to get at. The conveyor belt doesn't get any wider with shopping on it...

Shotgun Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 10 hours ago, Hampden Diehard said: People referring to their dogs with a joined up name like cockapoodle when they should saying mongrel. Add people who pay mega-money for mixed-breeds / mongrels / mutts. They think that if the parents were valuable dogs, even if they're completely different breeds, then the offspring will be valuable too. I suppose that if people are willing to pay a lot for them then by definition they 'are' valuable but for a small donation they could save the life of a dog every bit as good, or better from a shelter. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesP_81 Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 This must have been done on here before but people who just pull their face masks down under their chin when they don't need to wear it. Apart from it looking utterly ridiculous it's the height of laziness, either wear it or take it off don't have it half way. Triggered by seeing a family of fatties waddle out of a cafe every one of them adults and children gasping for air with mask elastic cutting into their various girths of neck, then seeing an old biddy sitting eating her dinner with one pulled down under her chin. This behaviour isn't normal, new normal old normal or any kind of normal so when you don't need to legally wear one it should be taken as far the f*ck away from your face as possible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miguel Sanchez Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 The notion of paying money for a dog when there are no doubt thousands of them in kennels/shelters up and down the country is abhorrent. The notion of having a certain kind because it's valuable is unthinkable. It's a pet, not an investment. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacksgranda Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Just now, Bigmouth Strikes Again said: How much are we talking about here? Thank you. I don't know, I'm just going by anecdotal evidence that kittens are no longer "free to good homes". Anytime I've been in the vets lately (which hasn't been often since the pandemic and our old dog died so I no longer needed to collect his medicine) there were only ads for selling kittens not giving them away. (And I'm not talking pedigree cats here.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 The notion of paying money for a dog when there are no doubt thousands of them in kennels/shelters up and down the country is abhorrent. The notion of having a certain kind because it's valuable is unthinkable. It's a pet, not an investment.I suppose it depends on circumstances. If I lived by myself I'd get a dog from the kennel but with kids in the house I'd be wanting a puppy rather than a dog. Even then you have to make some kind of donation to our local kennel and I wouldn't want to turn into one of those vegan/feminist "he's a rescue" type person. The folk that spend thousands on a dog are batshit crazy though. f**k that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
