Buying a dog

[Dimron]

I phoned the man at the plant hire company, I said "I wanna a skip on my drive", he replied "I'm not stopping you"

We used to have a chipped cable box early 2000s - everything free, I think it was £7 a night for the porn channels if you didn't have a chip box, they were rubbish, showed simulated sex only - one thing was called The Adventures of Walter Clitty, where some geek imagined he was seeing all these naked girls. I would occasionally watch it out of morbid curiosity.

We had a chipped cable and wireless box from the Lizzy. 
 

My mam rang cable and wireless up trying to watch Evita on PPV on a chipped fuckin box

My then girlfriend (massive - she'd double up bras sometimes) went and worked for NTL after Cable and Wireless sold. We had a chipped box bought from a lad that installed legit ones and she was working for them.

There was still fuck all on most times, but all the PPV boxing was free so...I was baffled by the £7 a night (if unchipped) 'porn' channels - you'd see more buying a copy of Fiesta for £2.

Skips are open affairs, I mean the big lidded bins that a wife-beater would fit in. (Meaning a twat not a vest or can of Stella).

Ah, a secure skip. You should've said.

It's not a bloody skip.

Who invented the skip?

These are large bins known as dumpsters in America that hobos kip in then get crushed when the garbage men empty them into the truck. I dunno what they're called here but it's not a skip.

Commonly referred to as industrial bins.  1600l capacity.

There's no industry on my complex - unless you count prostitution and growing and selling weed. Industrial bins, you're right.

Emily?

I've only ever watched one of the Daniel Craig ones, and that was only because Eva Green was in it.

Once rescued a homeless bloke from one behind Sainsbury in Bolton. As you say, the ones collecting clothing for recycling make a great place to kip but, as on this occasion, not the night before bin day if you’re unsure of the time the bin lorry arrives. The homeless bloke woke up when the skip was picked up and shouted like his life depended on it.

Oh, and thanks for clarifying my earlier point

it rarely happens these days, but our dog can be left on his own for 8-10 hours, and he doesn't seem to mind. We try not to do that, but occasionally we do have to leave him, in all fairness, even when we are here, he spends most of his time sleeping, I reckon he must get a good 18 hours a day 😁

not ideal admittedly, but ours has been 8-9 hours since pretty much when we got him

 

he seems happy as a pig in muck

has the run of the house and spends most of it on our bed

I expect you'll be a full moon then?

Just say no

To kipping in a bin? I've dossed down in a ditch once or twice and on the green of a golf course hole. When tired and emotional of course.

I almost got busted for vagrancy for kipping on a beach in jeans and a hoodie in Tenerife.

Feeling morose tonight apart from the BWFC win.

My new dog is still in a freezing kennel in the depths of Lincolnshire and the log burner is going flat out at home.

Going there to walk him tomorrow first thing with a pocket full of treats.

Climbing the walls now

If he nobs her it will be ruined.

The next one should be a gay actor like Paddington or that Scottish bloke, and they are equally as promiscuous as their predecessors but with other men. It would reel in the pink pound.

GoldenBrownEye.

Bond bumming M or whatever after him showing off some inventions - which will look laughable in two years.
