Fan sounds like there's a swarm of angry wasps inside. They've told me that it sounds like a bearing has gone. So I need to either buy a new fan or a new laptop. I'd rather the new fan.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
I really don't mind helping out friends, family and neighbours with DIY tasks. Especially those who lack the skills or physical ability.
But when an able-bodied neighbour, half my age, with a very decent income, turned up at my doorstep earlier I thought it best to tell him to go away in short, jerky movements. He appeared with a list (carpet-laying, carpet tile laying, tiling, floor tiling, replace electrical fittings, assemble flat-pack furniture, bath tap replacement, jet washing, bed frame repair and tree pruning). He also had a timetable for me to do the work! He suggested I would do it all for free 'cos I'm a "good neighbour".. Good neighbour perhaps, but not his lacky or slave. I suggested a sum of around £300 would be apt (though I would not have taken his money, I have never done in the past). I was just taking the piss, the same as he was. He got really huffy, so I told him to leave..... |
Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
On Saturday I went into O2 to enquire about the new Note 8 the phone will cost £855 or £955 I can't remember.
Later that day my Note 4 started playing up, I've lost count to the reboots, and boy has it got hot (no charging) and running very slow. So I can't wait for the Note 8, so I'll have to get the S8 Edge. |
Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
I really do wish my nephew would take some responsibility for his actions and maybe grow up a little after all he is 28 years old and my youngest who is only 15 is far more mature than him.
Yesterday while over at my Mother in Laws he was saying that he took his latest dog to the police station his reason was the dog was biting and I just don't believe him as he has had 3 dogs over the last 6 years two of which he took to the local cat and dog home. My nephew went on to say that his friends dog is expecting pups and I just thought now the truth comes out wait for it yip that's right my suspicion confirmed as he plans to get one of the pups, he looked gob smacked when I said I think he is totally unreasonable and if I had my way he would be banned from ever owning any animal as I have had two dogs in my 28 years of marriage one who lived to the grand old age of 16 and the current one who is approximately 13/14 as we do not his actual age as we got him from our local cat and dog home. I can only hope and pray that the dogs he hands over finds a good home in where they can live the rest of there day's. I went on to tell him just how disgusted I am at his attitude towards what would be very good pets given the right owner and more than likely the problem is not with the dogs he gets but it's actually with him. The room went silent then he left after about 5 minutes and tbh I really do not care as I feel this was needed to be said as imo he does need to take responsibility of any living creature he brings into his life. Why he wants a dog I do not know as he works as a delivery driver so the dog will be left for up to 10 hours a day and I just do not think that is right in fact I think it's both cruel and selfish on his part. :rant: |

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
Getting so tired of one manager constantly splitting his crew for M&S jobs into 2, which means depending on which crew you get split into you earn more or less than the others. Take for instance this coming Sunday. There are 7 going in the first van, which means that they will all earn more than the 6 of us going in the second van, which really annoys me as they either take a smaller crew for the whole job, or everyone goes at the same time and earns the same, or those in the second van get paid for what the first van does as well. This particular manager is THE only one who does this. Not sure if this is something I can be bothered raising with management above him, as they don't seem to care about the workers any more.
It's now getting to the stage where I don't want to go to work, I used to love going to work but now I just want to stay at home and play on the xBox. |
Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
My moan is my sister and Dad once again. My Dad is 80 tomorrow and today while shopping he asked me if I was coming over tomorrow with hubby and the boy's and I said yes once hubby comes in from work to which he replied I'm going out with yip you have guessed it my sis and brother in law to say my kids are gutted is a understatement.
Well congratulations Dad & sis you now have left me to once again answer some very awkward questions from a young man who is only 15 but don't worry I will continue to make excuses and take the blame once again as I'm getting really good at telling my youngest son fibs as I do not want nor wish him to realise what a nasty pair of human beings you really are. So here I'm sitting racking my brain how to tell him that he will not see his Papa on his 80th Birthday when he comes home from his RAF cadets, hubby thinks I should just be truthful as does my eldest, but as a Mother I simply refuse to hurt my child because of your selfish actions! It has only been two months since my Mum passed and I cannot believe that I have been pushed out off celebrating my Dad's 80th now how do you explain that one to a 15 year old :confused: My eldest has just informed me since his Dad his away to pick up our youngest that he is done with them well and truly and this also saddens me but I understand his reasons. What is upsetting me the most is my Mum would have never allowed her Grandsons nor myself to be shunned this way. I was so angry today that I just put away the tins and heavy items away for him and left him to put the fridge items away I usually put all his shopping away but honestly I could not get out his house fast enough as I was just so angry and upset and the only one I wanted to speak to was my hubby. I cannot possibly post what his reply was when I told him. |
Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
Well the cats out the bag my hubby told my youngest the truth about his Papa and Aunt and he spoke to his big brother and let's just say good job he never told him everything that he has witnessed over the last 28 years.
This morning I asked my son's if they were phoning there Papa to wish him a Happy Birthday and tbh it was no surprise that they both said no and I can't blame my boy's at all as there hurt the way I have been treated and have witnessed all I have done over the years that seem to have been so easily forgotten about. The trouble with that is how will look towards myself as I feel this will only give my sister the ammunition she has been so desperately waiting for. My Mother in Law said yesterday that they are both just really nasty people and she has witnessed the way they treat me her wording was the two of them have always treated you like a 2nd class citizen and your worth far more than them put together which was nice but still hurts. I have been sobbing on and off since 7am this morning, I just feel that I have been brushed to the side once again, hubby has said that I should remove my number and name from my Dad's alert system and put his on it which tbh I'm sad to say I'm actually debating doing this but I will give a week to decide as I will not make any rash decisions. |
Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
@ weenie. Do not feel guilty just because you know what your sister will think. You have to know that you have done nothing to deserve the guilt trip you are contemplating. Your Father will enjoy his outing and he is aware that it is not your son's choice to not see him to-day.
As for them not phoning him, if it really bothers you then you phone him on behalf of your boys, wish him Happy Birthday and a pleasant evening then hang up sharply before he has a chance to make any comment. Raise a glass to the old curmudgeon, I nearly used a much more accurate description but he is not worth me being reprimanded by a mod for bad language, when you have your family meal to-night and next time you see him tell him his grandsons were disappointed that HE chose not to see them on such a milestone birthday. As for putting your husbands details on the alert system I think that your husband's suggestion is the best thing you can do. You will still be alerted if your Dad needs assistance but it may just deter him from using it as a way to manipulate your good nature. Look after yourself sweetie, you are important and do not deserve to be manipulated by this selfish couple of so called relatives. |

I used to get text messages when the nurse at my GPs practice did them but NHS Lanarkshire, Scotland in there wisdom decided to make these injections at the local health clinics so now I've to go where lets just say undesirables seem to be. I have since worked out a way in where our paths do not cross and I usually pick appointments at 9am in where they are more than likely still in the land of nod. Tbh not looking forward to going tomorrow as no doubt the green liquid crew will be there aka Methadone patients.
The receptionist knows me so after tomorrow it will be back to my usual first appointment time :) I'm not a snob Osem but I just feel really uncomfortable around them as they seem to be in groups. I'm going to ask about the text message service tomorrow, thank you for reminding me Osem. |

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
To all who have lost pets you have my sympathy atm our beloved pooch going to get a scan then depending on the results he could be facing getting light sedation for the biopsy. What comes after that is going to be either some sad news or hope, we have discussed with our son's what it could be and if that be the case as a family we have decided we would rather no treatment as treatment would only give him a couple of months but as the vet has stated he would have no quality of life and he would advise the unthinkable. IMO he has given us so much, so it be only right that we do best by him now when he needs us the most no matter how hard the decision is/will be.
It goes without say that we hope it is nothing that can't be cured or fixed with treatment no matter the cost but what we need to ask is it going to make him happy or us what is for the best and for whom! Atm he is on Metacam for his systems and pain relief :( and he seems to be fine eating, walking and even playful at times but he is sleeping a lot and his mood has changed that only a pet owner will know what I mean by this I call it leave me alone mood and as a family we just let him be. ---------- Post added at 20:16 ---------- Previous post was at 20:15 ---------- Quote:

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
The best advice that I can give you Mark is just think about things that annoy you, say nothing let someone else be the mouthpiece as I'm certain this will be grinding others and not just you!
Take a minute or two and think about this if these things annoy you, then you can bet your boots your co-workers will more than likely be getting annoyed. Mark no-one likes to get mucked about and especially to have hours cut that goes everyone. If I were you I would just bite my tongue for now and say nothing to no-one not even a co-worker about your feelings on what happened yesterday. Then what usually happens by doing this, you usually find eventually one of your co-workers will say something and that is the time that you either sit back quietly watching & listening carefully while assessing the situation or back your co-worker straightaway and air your grievances/issues with them side by side. The secret here is too remain calm whatever you choose to do. Or you could just have a rant on here, I know it has helped me in the past with the bonus of getting advice (win win) IMO |

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
Mark not being funny but your work sounds a terrible place to work as in all my years of being in employment I have never witnessed someone having as much bad luck as you seem to have.
Mark try and worry not about this as it could be something as simple as telling a dirty joke and that person overhearing it, thus making the person who has made the complaint against you feeling uncomfortable or saying to someone your looking good in where they have totally misinterpreted this (it has been known) if your work decides to call you in for a meeting I would ask very calmly keeping my voice in a low even tone at all times. Who made the charges? What are the specifics of the charges? What dates did the alleged harassment occur? Were there any witnesses to the harassment? What type of evidence, if any, do they have against you? Mark take notes with you into the meeting that way you will not forget anything, after the meeting ask for a copy of the minutes of the meeting and whatever you do, do not sign or say anything without advice. Do not be aggressive or angry when asking the above, also, do not directly speak to the person who has made these allegations against you. If you need to work beside this person make a request at the meeting that your requesting that your never left alone with this person as you now feel uncomfortable working beside them due to the false allegations. If you feel yourself about to lose it during any meeting then I would ask to be excused as you need the toilet, use this time wisely to calm down. This is the advice that I would give to any one male or female. |
Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
Great advise weenie. Mark you must be careful over this as if your employer accepts that you have done or said something inappropriate it will be noted permanently in your personnel file. Along with the potential to lose your job any future employer could well be informed and it could easily screw up any future employment.
Keep your calm as weenie says and DO NOT APPROACH THE OTHER EMPLOYEE. |
Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
Worst news possible in regards to my lovely dog. What matters now is making whatever time he has left pain free, loved and take each week then day as it comes while following the vets advice.
My youngest is devastated, while hubby and I suspected that it would be bad news, we never expected the vet to say nothing could be done :( heartbroken. We asked if we were doing the right thing and he said if it was his dog he would be doing exactly the same as us. At the moment we're just going to treasure every day we have left with him, I know some may think he's only a dog but he's my dog and I love him. |
Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
So sorry to hear about the family dog weenie as my thoughts are with you.:hugs:
Those who say it is only a pet obviously have no idea of the special bond and love that develops between a pet and their owners as they become very much part of the family and the wonderful memories and enjoyment they give are certainly something that is cherished when they are alive and sadly when they pass away. |

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
Thanks everyone and that is exactly that, he is our dog and we got him from the cat and dog home to live in his forever home in where he quickly settled into family life.
Yesterday he went in for a scan and the vet discovered many tumors in him. The vet did not do a biopsy, he was not willing to do a biopsy for two reasons and what he told us was the main reason was he feared our dog would bleed to death as he felt he may not have been able to stop the bleed therefore to risky, then went on to say what he was 99.9% certain what we were facing due to the scan results and his symptoms. The vet is 99.9% certain our dog has prostate cancer and unfortunately is a very invasive and aggressive disease. Hubby discussed all options with the vet and decided to bring him home with the medication he needs with the understanding this will not prolong his life but give him a better quality of life hopefully. Many tears last night as we know we only have a very short time left with him but we will continue to put what is best for him, no matter how hard. Today my heart is breaking every time I look at my youngest I see he has been crying then I look at my dog and the tears just flow. I have looked at his post-operative care instructions and the vets notes and he has lost 1kg since his last weigh in, he is now 18.7kg, body condition score (BCS) 4/9 which now means for the first time in his life he is under weight. I have stopped Googling - How long does a dog have to live with prostate cancer? I have also stopped asking myself could I have noticed any sooner but how could I as we have taken him to the vet monthly sometimes twice a month so far this year as it just seemed to be one thing after another. He just seemed to be getting one thing sorted then another new symptom would appear and I cannot help think are these all related, did I miss anything. |

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
Oh weenie I am so sorry to hear your news. Loosing a loved member of the family is so hard on everybody. I am assuming that the vet has ensured that any pain is going to be banished or at the very least reduced. I have gone through this so many times with the cats I have fostered and it never gets easier but what I have found is that once their pain is under control my feline friends have enjoyed their last few weeks, sleeping more and not being as ready to take on the world but happy. I guess their not understand what is happening is a blessing.
Make the most of these last days/weeks. Remember that he will pick up on the feelings of those people who he has come to love and trust. So try to stay calm and make sure he gets lots of hugs and and treats, when the time comes to give him his release then, remember these last few loving moments with a smile knowing that you have all done your very best to try to make the end of his life as happy as he was when he came to live with you all. |
Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
Jo I assume the medication will help the pain, the medication he is on atm is
Omeprazole 20mg, one capsule to be given daily 2 hours before food. Prednisolone 5mg SA, two tablets once daily with food, stop if sickness occurs. Prednidale 25mg, one tablet daily with food, stop if sickness occurs. He is now off his Metacam. Today he enjoyed his back garden without being rushed to come in as I'm guilty off doing this, I just stood at the french doors watching him. Today he has had two slices of hot buttered toast since he turned his nose up at his Iams Proactive Health Mature & Senior Dog Chicken food, then he had some gravy bones and now he is currently sleeping in the living room with my bed throw over him looking very snug may I add and I'm going to make him some chicken and rice later on as I know he loves this treat. |
Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
Hi weenie, the Omeprazole is usually taken to stop any indigestion type symptoms and to avoid any problems when he has eaten. It can also help if there is any suspicion of ulcers.
The Prednisolone and Prednidale are both Steroids which reduce inflammation and can slow down or even shrink tumours. They also have a pain relief effect on arthritis which is why I assume your Vet has stopped the Metacam. When my terminally ill foster cats have had to have a similar drug program I try to stick to as light a diet as possible, the chicken and rice was my go-to menu, for at least the first few days/week when stomach (the runs ughhhh) upsets and vomiting can sometimes happened when large doses of steroids are given and this is why the Vet has told you to stop the tablets if sickness occurs. Oh and try not to handle either of the Pred tablets if you do have to touch them wash your hands really really well after you have given him the tablets. I was on high dosage preds for a long time and never felt my arthritis or had any digestive problems so despite the long term side effects I suffered they were very effective and I hope my canine counterpart will also be able to cope with them because they do work well. If you want to look up any medicines have a look at this site, http://www.vmd.defra.gov.uk/productI...e/Default.aspx You can either search alphabetically or just use the search option choosing DOG, When the drug comes up click on "view SPC" the resulting doc is normally very informative. Though I have just checked and Omeprazole isn't listed so the lists can have drugs missing. |

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
I'm an idiot!
While sorting the grass out along the edge of the house wall i managed to cut through the VM phone line wire using the shears! Does anyone know if i will have to pay to get this fixed or is it something they will do for free? I am assuming it will cost me maybe £50. |

Thanks, don't really want to pay for it, so i will think about what to say but it has obviously been cut.

If it's the siamese cable (co-ax + twisted pairs) then VM will have to be got in. |

---------- Post added at 21:26 ---------- Previous post was at 19:58 ---------- Idiot postmen AGAIN! We just had an automated reminder about a hospital appointment for my son which was apparently for tomorrow morning. We knew nothing about it so clearly the letter never arrived and was lost/misdelivered en route. Thankfully it's not urgent and because we got the reminder we've at least been able to cancel it at the last minute but I doubt whether anyone else will be able to take the appointment at this late stage. I'll call the hospital tomorrow morning and explain but whether they will believe me is another matter. I hope they do because in nearly 20 years we've only ever missed 1 hospital appointment and we felt awful about that for ages. :( |

The hardest part of being a pet is knowing when to say goodbye.
Goodbye old friend and thank you for choosing us to be your forever home. RIP Keane |
