Having been a dog owner, I would never tie my dogs up if I went into a shop. Years ago, a dog owner friend, tied his lurcher up outside Red Apples whist he got a paper - 2/3 minutes later found dog had been stolen. He mounted a big campaign. leaflets, posters, newspaper stories, even got onto the local news on TV. Cost him hundreds of pounds as general public contacted him as to possible sightings all over the country. Several months later, the Surrey Police contacted him as they found an empty van will several dogs abandoned on a motorway slip road. His dog was there, another dog whose owner could not be found, was later adopted by him as he had formed an attachment to the lurcher.


I am afraid that most weeks when I go to Sainsburys in DKH, I see a dog tied up at the entrance, very often they look as though they are pedigrees.

I worked in Sainsburys and used to tell dog owners not to leave their dogs tied up outside, There is a big dog fighting ring in this area and this is one way of them getting bait for the dogs. I know it is not nice to put this up here but please everyone think before you leave your beloved animal outside without supervision there are some very nasty people out there.

      Flu and Covid jabs locally

      By beansprout · Posted

      Thanks for that - none  of mine  have been Mordena - whilst vulnerable cat, think I will just take my chances… Will be having flu though - certainly not by choice - much prefer not to but in vulnerable group.. Avoided them until last year…. Luck of drawer if you are as sick as fog  or just sore arm … assume - god knows - that flu jab is same throughout country.

      Wow, that is what it costs for one prisoner. So they get full board and lodging, 24 hour  monitoring  in over populated prison, we are led to believe, minimum exercise, assume a tv in each cell provided - in USA it is together with wash hand basin and c toilet - some have showers as well.   Clearly this amount of money takes  into account overstretched and overworked prison officers, protection for them, counselling which is, in my opinion a bare minimum dealing with prisoners in all settings. Do if Sweden can look outside the box, why can’t we? Or are we just not bothered at all / read statistics some where that reoffending is normal and to be frank, with economy as it is at the moment re employment, cost of living and homelessness..not surprised they reoffend to get back inside - food provided, roof over your head - much better than street living, mixing with wrong crowd, trying to get roof over your head, find a job where 90 % won’t employ you as been inside..

      @beansprout The Swedes seem to have a useful strategy with regard to offenders  which has reduced repeat offending.  I agree that prison time for minor offences is a complete waste of time. Even worse is that prisons are "colleges of crime" where inmates learn about how to be do crimes and worst of all, become exposed to drug taking. I wouldn't advocate having chain gangs as in the USA but some strategy for getting them into say manual work under supervision might be useful - especially if it came with a modest wag. This would be significantly cheaper than the £51,100 it costs per year for  keeping one in jail.
