Hello, my name is Tony, and I identify as; Sore. My pronouns are; Ouch! and Fthth! (“Fthth!” is my best effort at the sharp inhale through your teeth sound, made when you see something sore happening to someone else. Other people seem to use it a lot ). It’s been suggested that this may beContinue reading “It’s a Dogs Life 62”

I don’t often get any “downtime” at work these days. Between the recovering economy, the school work and the never ending admin, it’s frequently all go. However the job also involves bizzarre, and off the wall enquiries (from drivers and public), which can themselves be a “diversion” from the daily grind. So last night, myContinue reading “It’s a Dogs Life 61”

I tell an unfunny story at my own expense and of course, that’s the one that gets the most views, likes and shares. I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised. The funniest thing I’ve ever written…. at least that’s what I promised last week, not that I (or I believe, anyone else) expects “next week onContinue reading “It’s a Dogs Life 60”

I thought for a long time before writing this one, not least because it means I must also tell my wife. No-one likes to tell a tale in which they are made to look like a gullible fool. Certainly I play up to being the fool, but that’s not the same thing as being conned.Continue reading “It’s a Dogs Life 59”

Unbelievably, that’s a year in our new house! It’s not exactly been a normal year, indeed I’m not altogether sure what a “normal year” would look like. Hogmanay was cancelled, Burns night was cancelled, many other events were steered around whether 6 could attend or who could be in the same household, or who wasContinue reading “It’s a Dogs Life 58”

Well I got a telling off for the spelling mistakes in last weeks “Life”. Sometimes I go back and correct them, but it doesn’t update on the feed most of you use, so I do wonder if that’s worth it. There’s no spell check on the “wordpress” support – or if there is, I haven’tContinue reading “It’s a Dogs Life 57”

What no New Year Special? I had some plans for a midnight Hogmany video appearance (with song), but the party was cancelled as everyone had to isolate, and, in fit of pique, I went to bed at half ten…zzzzzz However a belated Happy New Year to all, and I’d like to start it with aContinue reading “It’s a Dog’s Life 56”

The gift that keeps on giving… 11 for full Christmas dinner – 3 families , everyone LFT as negative. All in the rules. An astonishing performance by the solitary cook, working in a single oven kitchen, and even sneaking in a vegetarian option. We gave a, richly deserved, standing ovation when it was served, andContinue reading “It’s a Dog’s Life 55”

Merry Christmas! . If there was a small destitute roaming the (bright and sunny) streets this morning, I would assuredly be yelling out my window that he should run and buy a goose – the biggest goose he can find – and throwing him 2 shillings. I am an urepentant fan of this day, andContinue reading “It’s a Dog’s Life (bonus festive edition)”

It’s hard to believe Christmas is almost apon us. Where has December gone? Certainly, in my case, a large chunk of it has gone on night shift, where I seem to have been living for the last 3 weeks, working at the front line of – getting you home safely from the Christmas party thatContinue reading “It’s a Dog life 54”
