Ahh you mean "Hibu" the new last word in thieving con artists.

Ill start, white dog sh@t

Yes !!

I was talking about this with a customer last week...you never see any white dog sh'ts anymore...not like in the 80's or earlier.

My girlfriend reckons they were Poodle sh@t but after researching the subject it seems its to do with dogs diets and calcium.

Apparantly dogs used to eat a lot of bone/bones in their food and when deposited on the pavement for a few weeks the rain would wash out the organic stuff and leave a kind of fossil behind of the bone matter. This coupled with the fact that dog sh@t is now more or less always picked up or a heavy fine that its just not left out in the street as long as it used to be.

My dogs have white shyt if i give them a bone from the butchers so probably is a calcium thing

We've got a regular 'any old iron' man. I gave him one of those metal tool boxes full of old rusty tools from my shed only the other day.


Another thing you don't see is those 3 ducks on people's livingroom walls next to that Constable painting 'The Haywain' - just above the fishtank surrounded by multi-coloured bricks.

I had a Datsun Cherry, luckily it was brown so you couldn't notice the rust holding it together.
