Sorry, I didn’t mean to insinuate you didn’t know, it’s just that it is a little trickier for me but it will work if I do that. I used not to have to be so precise with it.
Nah all good, its damn frustrating now, I have to highlight each word now to bold a sentence.
 
Why are some colours popular surnames eg Green, White, Black, Brown but not Yellow, Red, Blue?
For a long time people only used one name. At some point they started using a last name, and in many cases it was selected based on a person's occupation. Thus, John the Blacksmith became John Black or John Smith. Maybe the other surnames are associated with occupations as well?

Red is seen in Reed/Reid , Blue in Blewett , Bowie is seemingly from the Gaelic for Yellow

But mostly for characteristics or descriptors. ie Brown haired Al became known as Al Brown and Al that had a job as a greenkeeper became Al Green.

This post and similar re the Elephant hunting has just made me physically sick the last few days :mad: ....I feel so helpless to do anything .....yet if i got one of these hunters within arms length, I actually think i'd lose it and do something unimaginable :mad:

 
Really important news on news.com.au:

-Carl Stevanovic had to leave work after only 40 minutes due to the flu. Important!
-Sinead O'Connor has converted to Islam as she is sick to death of the way the Catholic church treats women. Woops!
-Both Harry and Magean have chronic diarrhea.

Totally agree.

I recently put my dog in boarding for a week and was shocked at his state when I picked him up. He was clearly distressed and I feel quite shitty now for doing it as he is a beautiful companion and would have been beside himself not having the family around him. We underestimate (or don't give a shit) about the impact our actions have on these wonderful creatures.

It’s funny, a dog only has you in his life but you have many people in your life.
Such wonderful creatures, how anyone can harm one I have no idea.

Don't they normally house them with other dogs ? ....not always compatible & that can cause distress

There are businesses now that offer to "billet" you pet out to a host family .....the family is well researched and they have a pet that's compatible with yours

No. I specifically asked for him to have his own run. He's a peoples dog so even if I he had other dogs to play with, he still would have fretted. Next time we are going on holidays he either stays with a family or friend or we don't go. I wouldn't put him in a boarding kennel again.

Yep, obviously strange surroundings & he fretted ....your thoughts are correct

There’s a pet hotel by the airport, I think they probably get a bit more time 1 on 1 and better conditions. Would hate to know what they charge though.
 
Seriously you jailed this woman for killing a man who not only r*ped you, but was threatening your child ......why is society so centred on protecting "scum" .....who gives a F...k about the feelings of his family, who BTW I doubt had much to do with him anyway

Give her a medal .....and FFS Free Her !!!

getting super pissed off with supermarkets, they just seem to find ways to be complete ****wits

I have been buying a burger bun for 12 months, but now the absolute ****wits have discontinued it and replaced it with their rip-off cheap crap tasting bun. why do they need to bring the quality down for everything.
