Names I call my dog

None of these names are her real name but, nonetheless, I sometimes call her:


  • Small

  • Little wagger

  • Pinkerton

  • Stinkerton

  • Monkey

  • Pupaloo

No wonder she never comes back when I call her.

Road rage rage

Why do some drivers feel the need to tailgate, overtake on stupidly dangerous windy roads, race off the lights and generally push, bully and burn rubber just to get in front of you?

I can’t say I always drive with the sedate speed and good grace of a short-sighted pensioner, but think of it this way…

If you were about to walk through a doorway and another person was also approaching the same doorway from the same direction as you, would you race right up to them, barge straight past them through the door and then flick them the ‘v’?

I thought not.
