well to be perfectly frank i think it is ridiculous to try and claim £15,000 because he took it upon himself to deliver the bumf as a labour mp, but more to the point if this dog was such a danger surely the postman would have reported it, or made a complaint . As a conservative myself i feel that the dog was actually just making his point and opinion hear, and who can blame him !! labour have ruined this country and everything this country stood for !!! to be honest if i got visited by a labour mp and was given labour bumf i would ram it somewhere where the sun doesnt shine !!!! ROLL ON THE GENERAL ELECTION LETS GET SOME ORDER AND MORALS AND STANDARDS BACK !!!!!

Is it me, or did anyone else notice that it took “a few days” for Mr Hunter to report the accident (and accident it was in my opinion since Mr Monroe has told us there was a letter cage around the letterbox).

Please don’t suggest a dog should wea a muzzle in its owner’s home. How is the poor creature supposed to eat its dinner for example, huh?

Seriously, £15,000 for the end of a finger?

I spent a whole summer delivering leaflets and I had many a run in with what was behind the letterbox and I only got paid £5.00 per hour.

I’m training to be a journalist now and the trouble I have now is what is down the phoneline and often that is far more vicious than a Jack Russell.

Do you think I could sue for having my ear chewed off from grumpy receptionists?

Anyway, kudos Boris for not begrudging an old man his best friend.

Where do u draw the line Boris? Its ok for dog to bite off post man’s finger but not ok if the dog mutilates 2 year old neighbour’s face? Both are physically and mentally scarred for life. Both due to irresponsible dog owner. So why is it ok to excuse one but not the other? Irrespective of the current economic climate and the fact that we love our animals as much as we do our own children, when a crime is committed, the perpatrator should be punished. Will you still think what you did was right in not reporting the incident in the park if tomorrow you read in the paper that the same cute-woolf like dog was let loose by his tramp owner to savage an innocent person walking in the park?

I too get nervous when approaching hairy lips and often wander what could be inside.

You go poking your unprotected hands in a box in which you do not know what is inside, then you are leaving yourself open to a number of possible consequences. Whether this is a letter box, a box with hairy lips or just any old unknown box.

Perhaps, you should take a precaution before you do this and protect yourself. I believe you can buy many different types of protective gloves including cut resistant gloves, kevlar reinforced gloves or even chainmail.

Think, you would think twice if it was a different part of your body and an unknown box with potential nasties inside, so why not do a risk assesment of the situation and put in place methods of reducing this risk?

I think that dog was only doing what is natural. You stick your arm in a cave with a bear and i’m sure this would result in similar behaviour.

The poor old dogs eyesight is probably failing and he thought his luck was in, a tasty sausage delivered free. Why else would something edible be coming through the letter box.

Well, to be quite frank I’ve had a few to anesthetize myself against the horrors of the internet, but still I feel that there are a few facts to which I can testify without being hauled before a court of law and they are as follows:

I was working at a Starbucks in Vancouver when we got a phone call from someone at a different starbucks, stating that a staffer there had sliced off the end of her finger by stuffing the beans into the grinder manually instead of by using the paddle provided for the purpose.

Okay.

So, we sent someone to cover for the partner who’d been sent to the hospital.

24 hour later:
we got a phone call from someone at a different starbucks, stating that a staffer there had sliced off the end of her finger by stuffing the beans into the grinder manually instead of by using the paddle provided for the purpose.

At this point it sounds familiar…

It turns out to be the SAME store, and the SAME WOMAN! She’d sheared off the fingertip to her OTHER hand. Nice woman. Not terribly bright.
