Default Neighbours can be a PITA

Bit of a follow-on from Adams post (which is a hoot).

Our pooch (who sticks her paws up to us) ran over the road and piddled on
a front lawn. As I collected the pooch the 'lady' of the house (35'ish)
came out muttering something. I said sorry or pardon (I forget which),
she burst forth (in upper case) with "YOU HEARD WHAT I SAID", I kinda
lost interest after that. I'm just hoping that she'll need some help
sometime, I doubt it'll ever happen, sadly (it never does). Yet again I
must have 'walk all over me' written on my brow. I would have said 'I
hope you don't mind me asking but would you try to keep your dog off our
front lawn please'.
Yes I know, I'm the pillock.



Just to get this straight... a dog peed on your lawn? No bricks through
the window, car lights smashed, garage/house broken into, physical
assault, gang of youths shouting and screaming? Ok, just checking.

I had to read it a few times to get it as well, but I think he's saying that
*his* dog ****ed on the lady across the road's lawn, and she was a bit
offensive about it. He is then putting himself in her shoes, and saying what
*he* would have said if the situation were reversed, and it was *his* lawn
that had been ****ed on by *her* dog ... I think ... :-)

If I were the OP though, I think I might have been a bit more worried about
the dog taking off on its own across the road, because if it did it in front
of me as I drove my car down there, he would probably get similar 'upper
case' verbals from me, but with a whole lot more expletives thrown in for
good measure !
