Dear neighbour,

It may have slipped your mind that we live on what is quite a busy road and that you don't have a gate on your back garden, making it easy for your boxer dog to scamper all over the place where he's not supposed to be. It's no use you calling him at the back of the house when I'm putting the rubbish out at the front and I can see he's running up and down the road (which you clearly haven't got the brain capacity to figure out is a possibility). Your back garden is not that large that you could lose a boxer in it, even in the dark! I keep expecting to hear that squeal-of-brakes-thump sound any moment now...

P.S. WTF is up with your water pipes waking me up in the early hours of the morning?

No love,
Your crotchety neighbour

Some people do not deserve pets. Seriously.

In a not at all happy coincidence I very nearly hit a dog at lunchtime. Cute little thing with no brains that decided to run across the road right in front of me. Fortunately I was already braking for the junction up ahead, but even so I was expecting to hear a thud to go with the squeal of tyres. I think it might've been with a guy who was a good 50 yards up a side road, in which case he wins the Moron of the Day award.
