Glad to see it provoked the same feel good factor for you as it did for me. It was sent to me and I thought it was a brilliant thing to share with you all here.

Excellent stuff...... I can identify with virtually all that you mention, but- I think I might be a wee bit younger than some of you- can anybody enlighten me on the 'white dog shit' phenomenon? Or are you referring to the top of a Walnut Whip?

That script should be recorded by Layla Jade and sold as a relaxation CD!

Or, OEJ, get Faye to narrate it along with some her more poetic excerpts! ;D

Moneyspinner!

As for the white dog shit phenomenon...white dogshit was obviously fresh poo out of a dogs arse oxidisng with the air on the pavement for several days. Better to trip up on your laces and fall on one with your hand than a fresh squidgy eh?
