Raging Sweary Words
Permalink Closed


Hi Ppl


I arrive back from my regular  Saturday coffee with a friend( long standing freind now one of UK's leading Consultant Pychatrists - (ot cured me of my hound addiction yet)


Cycled down to west end coffee shop   cycled back.  Ventured into my flat then out again. When I came in again I freaked - the swear words - the shouts - the sheepish looks from my 4 hounds.


Why?  My lounge blinds were semi chewed - destroyed - and the blind mechanism was f***d. They were expensive  Habitat blinds - a special washable type.


A bulk booking, for 4    hound and the cat was considered then I though the Forth and Clyde Canal would be easier.


Aghhhhhhhhh  you got to love them though


C xxx

Oh dear Charles - it is hard to remain the loving and devoted parent/owner in the face of such adversity isn't it.  Really sorry to hear about the blind.

Sorry to hear about your blinds, Charles. The air must have turned blue in your flat when you saw them! It's always a pity when something is destroyed that you know will take much to replace. Dogs are sometimes like teenagers at an unsupervised party - but at least they had the grace to look sheepish about it!

Oh dear Charles,

You can just picture them having a great time swinging on them and then suddenly thinking "oh no Dad's gonna kill us"

Aw, Charles, I'm sure you have forgiven them already, they were just helping to clean them.


You should see most of my furniture and that's with just tiny little rats, not huge big hounds!

I'm sorry about your blind, Charles.  I was mad enough at having to pay £35 to replace a remote control which Belle-zebub saw off long after she should have passed the chewing stage.


I'm sure you made your feelings clear, and they won't do it again.  Till the next time.

Hi,


Hey my lounge window is looking mega trendy - with one of my white bed sheets 'artistically' twirled over part it.  When it gets dark I remove a bulldog clip nad hey presto!  No one can see in.


I'm still searching for cheap vertical blind supplier.


Dogs behaving apart from Snap helping herself to a mega  meal.  My combination boiler stopped working  - found that out one night when getting into the bath -aghhhhhhhhhhhhh  stone cold water.


So I had to empty my storage cupboard to  adjust boiler settings /pressure and get pilot light going. So out came the big bag of dog food.  I did not put the food back in the cupboard. Took Cleo and Trei out for late night stroll. Came in to find Snap enjoying herself.  aghhh


Charles


ps boiler not working still

Charles, re blinds - Argos do vertical blinds at a reasonable cost although there sizes are limited.  


I can sympathise though, as you may have read in the Firework postings that Tyler destroyed 2 sets of our venetian blinds last year during the period building up to 5th Nov (lucky she didn't end up with any nasty cuts in her mouth!)  Now we always pull up the blinds before going out - 'just in case'.

Hey,


New blind slats have been ordered. I managed to fix the blind rail so saving a bit of money. Have gone for lighter  slats that should rip before damaging the main system.


Got up this morning to see Cleo coming towards me with a net curtain round her neck. She had been lying in her bed and no doubt thought this new bit of cutain was worth a chew. Somehow she manged to get her neck into one of the holes.


She came towards me with net curtain still hanging from the curtain rail. What a sight. She looked like a wee girl playing  a wedding game - she obviously was looking a  the bride. Trei a nervous groom.


Charles


ps on the positive side both Cleo and Trei and becoming real pups. So much puppy behaviour. Mind you Trei is only just 3 and Cleo is 3 next month. It's taken over 3 months for Trei to really enjoy playing about. They both run off with any thing I'm using.  Paint rollers, hammers, screw drivers etc Back to their beds for a good chew.
