    Ok this is from someone who asks for everything constantly. The final one in this trilogy tonight.
    We are considering getting a dog who needs a home. What we have to offer is not ideal but the animal would be well looked after and loved. It would have to be an animal content to be on its own for a while. 3 days of the week there would be no one in the house during the day
    Hello. I am going to try and build a gate between the garage and the garden wall to keep the dog in
    So it looks like some dog was stopped going to 'landfill'

    and Finally tonight
    I would be so grateful if anyone has any bowls/dishes suitable for a dog and a dog bed would be a fabulous extra if you have one that you do not need. It is a collie so a tiny bed would be no use.
    My first question is what have you been feeding the dog from. Also what Muppet gave her a Border Collie. Border Collies are hyperactive intelligent and if they are not walked at 4 times a day and kept interested they will chew your house apart and drive you barmy and attempt to herd you like a sheep or even nip your children (I know this woman has a 10 year old from previous posts).

    As a dog lover and owner I would never get a Border Collie and leave it hone alone 3 days a week (see 1st quote) Also I would personally want to own a big field to keep it entertained. Border Collies are Barmy and unless worked or entertained can be a nightmare. A lot end up in rescues when they are homed to inappropriate owners.

    I await for the dog being offered on Freecycle. We have had that before (last year) and that was a border collie.

    Offered: Tall floor standing Halogen lamp
    People picking up by cycle or on buses will take priority. Toby:-)

    This made me smile
    Wanted, Tens Machine for Pregnancy

    I believe these are different/stronger than the ordinary TENS machines.

    If anyone has one of these we would be very grateful.

    Also we are looking for a large dog kennel or small shed

    A cot would be so much better....
  • I've been laughing so much reading though these posts, I even recognise a few them. It's funny seeing the 'should have sent her the argos links' and such posts - not just me then?

    The 'gentleman's magazines' post a while back, I requested these for my husbands 30th birthday as he 'loves a good spank mag'.. obviously a joke... but now I've got 7 boxes of pr0n :doh:
    (well, would have if that blasted first choice hadn't of turned up)

    I also spent a good 10 minutes setting up a new Yahoo email address, just so I could reply to an 'Offered Scythe' post.

    I need more hobbies...

    Anyone got a top of the range camera, ipad with imaging software and a world trip ticket they no longer need, that they can deliver and teach me how to use and then take me grocery shopping and clean out my fridge? I have 17 children, 14 cats and a hamster in a one bedroom flat with no windows. We have no money, and last week my legs fell off, so any help would be great..:rotfl:

    Just had this on ours, first thoughts were 'Have you been naked for a few weeks to not realise?', also, don't they have other clothes besides that 1 pair of Jeans and 1 Hoody? If you can't afford clothes, why are you going away?
    Hi all,

    Do any of you ladies have any size 18 jeans that are surplus to requirements? I put on my usual pair this morning, and couldn't do the zip up! The same thing happened with my zip up top...I'm going away next week and would really like a few pairs of jeans and a hoody to wear. If anyone has any spare I would be very grateful, although I can't collect as I don't drive.

    Oh dear, just noticed the 'can't collect' bit as they dont drive, well no wonder they dont fit, if you wont get off your backside and walk, cycle or catch a bus to collect them. !!!!!! thats made me so angry.

    I am after a 28 inch or more, flat screen tv in full working order. It's for a birthday present, and they are so expensive to buy.

    This is on mine, not a huge request but i do feel it could have been worded better:

    Does anyone have an old fishing rod, Would like to have a go with my son thanks

    I agree, normal bait is hugely over rated these days.
