Some bus companies charge for dogs, some don't.
The last time I used a bus from Swanage to Poole, your local bus company @Tenkaykev they didnt charge. But up in North Norfolk they did.
Did you go the long way round or come over the chain ferry?
( I have a couple of friends who get on the bus on the Sandbanks side of the Ferry and get off on the Studland side, just to avoid paying the foot passenger fare! )

Morning all.
Its that wonderful day when I go to vist the auntie and sort her finances out 😊.....just can't wait.
She is 97 and stone deaf so I do sympathise.
But you know the situation.
She has carers 4 times a day.
A niece spends 5+ hours with her twice a week.
I visit every week.
MrsD phones every day
BUT.......
she complains that she never sees anyone :blush:
How does your wife talk to her on the phone then?

From my Facebook page this morning, Lol'

The preacher, in his Sunday sermon, used "Forgive Your Enemies" as his subject.
After a long sermon, he asked how many were willing to forgive their enemies. About half held up their hands.
Not satisfied he harangued for another twenty minutes and repeated his question. This time he received a response of about 80 percent.
Still unsatisfied, he lectured for another 15 minutes and repeated his question. With all thoughts now on Sunday dinner, all responded except one elderly lady in the rear.
"Mrs. Jones, are you not willing to forgive your enemies?"
"I don't have any."
"Mrs. Jones, that is very unusual. How old are you?"
"Ninety three."
"Mrs. Jones, please come down in front and tell the congregation how a person can live to be ninety-three, and not have an enemy in the world."
The little sweetheart of a lady tottered down the aisle, very slowly turned around and said: "It's easy, I just outlived the bitches."
