    Is the average wage in your area not higher than £20K? I have stated that the average wage is very low here in comparison to the national average. Yet still all your figures point to me living like a King on your house prices.

    No, the average wage here is £16,900.

    Well, perhaps you would oblige and remove the pictures. Believe it or not I'm told children sometimes see these pages as they stand at their parents' knee.

    TBH Lost - I don't think either of the dogs are actually "hurting" the cats - my dog loves to catch one of my cats and have its head in his mouth - and he gets his tongue bitten for his trouble every time:D - dogs are just so thick:rolleyes:

    I did find the original suggestion that cats liked Jeyes fluid poured over them rather indicative of the type of individual posting though:D

    Sure, (and as I type now my dog-dog has one of our cats in its loving mouth much like the second picture) but not eveyone will realise, and couple with the words its really not very nice, I think it has potential to upset and I think its fairly unpleasant in intent.

    Not one you could offer then;) :rotfl: :rotfl:

    No sorry. The wife has to rely on the milkman.

    Did you have a straight face when you wrote that Mr I'm going to buy a detached 4 bed with a big garden before I'm 30 and I don't care if a family is put on the street so long as I can get it for less than 250K?

    Don't believe you earn 50k, don't believe you have a 60k deposit, don't believe you have a girlfriend. Not surprised you like dogs. They'll suck up to anyone that feeds them. Unlike cats who are far more discerning.

    Where do you get that one from GD? Have been trying to find a specific one for Ceredigion (which I imagine would be similar to the one in your area) but haven't so far.

  • Take those photos off now you tragic individual.

    A lot of us on here have children climbing up on us while we're on here. Do you not realise that pictures like that would give them nightmares? If you want to send pictures like that to your mates at work, fine. Don't post them up on a public forum.

    You aren't helping yourself get taken seriously by putting up offensive pictures only funny to adolescents.

    So, how many kids are interested in the housing crash and economy then?

    If you dont like it, put me on ignore. Quite frankly chap, I couldnt care less.

    If your kids get disturbed by a few pics of dogs playing with cats, I pity them.
