"I know my place" said the man as he stepped on to the road, allowing Gail and I to continue home on a narrow stretch of pavement. Then he glanced fondly back at me, smiled and added "he's lovely".
What a nice chap.
The scenario is illustrated below with a different and less attentive man, for whom road safety is clearly not a priority…
Can't believe we have nearly the same title today.....
ReplyDeleteWe think if that second man ignored you and is walking IN the street, he DESERVES whatever comes to him.
Oh, all morning the news has been heaping rubbish on the Scottish Commonwealth Games uniforms. Does that make us even for the yellow lycra cycling pants? We'll probably be having those again.
XXXOOO Bella Roxy & Dui
Oh dear, those uniforms. What WERE they thinking...
DeleteDo you know it is one of the greatest caues of accidents these days - people to busy talking on their cells to notice anything going on around them.....maybe we should all start a sneak attack campaign - silently come up behind them and bark like crazy :)
ReplyDeleteHari OM
ReplyDeleteThus your post could equally have been titled "Wide Berth"..eh?
Ahem. As for the outfits...?>????!!!!!!><:LDVFPOFJ - unbeliev-a-bubble. Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx

Crikey Bertie .... you did it again, mate! You keep showing that cute little strut and that cute little butt and that cute little upright tail and my Mum goes all melancholy on me. You wouldn't wanna meet my Mum on a walk. You'd never get away from her. You'd get more than he's lovely from her!!! She'd gush over you for hours!!
ReplyDeleteGood thing you were there Bertie just in case 2nd man got run over.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Lily Belle & Muffin
That was nice to offer you the pavement, peeps are bigger than dogs so cardrivers will see them earlier :o)
ReplyDeleteOMD Bertie.... you and Dui have the SAME title... butt different topics... That is so COOL...
ReplyDeleteThat was very Gentlemanly of the chap.
That first guy sounds very nice. Whenever we're coming up towards people on the sidewalk, Momma tells me "be polite" and I move into the grass instead. But sometimes people move for me instead, and I think that's very nice of them!
ReplyDeleteDeja vu with Downunder Daisy's post! LOL! Different subject but the idea's the same.
ReplyDeleteHmm that seems pretty silly about that second man there. What on earth was he thinking? Good think you were around in case you needed to save the day.
ReplyDeleteSigh... cell phones...
ReplyDeleteMonty and Harlow
I hate when peeps see me walkin and don't stop and acknowledge my cuteness.
ReplyDeleteHe better move if he knows what's good for him
ReplyDeleteSnorts,
Lily & Edward
Manners are always important. Everyone knows you are lovely and should say it loud and clear, while stepping aside.
ReplyDeleteLooks like Bertie's already spotted the silver car turning onto the road .
