Things that have happened to you, but before then, had not for a VERY long time:

[Mad Doug Biker]

I have one, I was walking across a restaurant carpark (Balloch) earlier and was hit by a Seagull taking a sh*t... Right on the head.

It sounds funny, but I genuinely have not had that happen to me since I was a kid at School, 30+ years ago and even then, it was on my jacket.

So, do you have any similar happenings?

TBH I can't remember a major incident of stepping in dog shoot for a long time, whereas it seemed a regular occurrence as a child.

I won a prize in a raffle when I was in my forties. The last time it had happened I was at primary school.

Did you live in Middlesbrough?

A few months ago I trod in dog whatsit - just stopped on my bike to let some walkers past and my foot went right in it

I was thinking

when I was a kid that was just something that happened
you were told to look where you were treading - because it was all over the place


nowadays it is just hanging on bushs in bags!!!

Indeed.

My worst experience was when playing on a big grassy green, a couple of streets from where I lived. My mates and I were competing to perform the most spectacular 'dive forward roll'. I ran full tilt and really went for it. I performed a perfect roll, back up onto my feet to a round of applause, took a bow, and discovered that...

... I had just rolled through the most horrendous dog turds on the planet!!!

The crap was all over me, in my hair, on my hands, even on my cheeks.


My lovely pals thought that it was hilarious watching me scrape off most of it with a stick, then slinking off home to get decontaminated.

Every male person on here KNOWS they would have been incapable of standing for laughing if they had been your mate at that point

Thing that always annoys me
on y favourite ride thre is a point where there used to be a community maintained by a local volunter group

they folded due to funding so the bin was taken down

but the concrete base is still there

and it is often covered - and I man COVERED in plastic poo bags

I mean - OK it USED to be a bin
but it clearlyis not any more

so why just dump your bags on it

I Mean
WHY???

I had an out of body experience before xmas, I felt I was at the back of a room and floating when I was near the front in reality. Previously this has only happened once when I was 23. Its very weird.

I had the last laugh - I have outlived them by 5+ years, and counting!!

Did you live in Middlesbrough?

Boro has moved on from dog poo to growing cannabis and running dens, particularly in central town. You can smell it on the streets as you walk down them.

The sad reality is that animal ownership is too expensive because of the level of poverty in some wards and we have lost our way on the high street, lost a lot of industry and struggling to replace with greener jobs

Somebody near me got arrested after falling into a huge pile of it.
