  bleurgh!!!!

anyone else manage to wrap the lead around their ankle? no matter how careful I am the blasted thing gets me!!!

[saasher2012]

lol. Not wrap it round me ankles but I do tend to stand on it & come to an abrupt stop!.

Nope but I have managed on several occasions to get it wrapped around a table leg yanked it and pulled everything of the table. Did trip the old man up once does that count.

[saasher2012]

lol.

I've nearly done that once or twice before now.  It's annoying when it happens isn't it?

Not round my ankle, but I regularly stretch the lead too far and almost pull the plug out.

Two of our cats are scared of the hoover but the other one, the cheeky little black one,

thinks hoovering is a game!  In fact he thinks life is a game, and a cuddle!

[captainbovine]

oh I'm glad it isn't just me then, yup I've pulled out the plug too, and stood on the lead, gawd, those leads are sneaky things....it's a conspiracy I tell ya!!!!

[ed_blackadder_1]

Stepping on the plug is the best one. Ouch.

[captainbovine]

ooh Ed, I've done that too, it hurt...a lot....

maybe we should invest in one of those robotic ones the cats like to sit on!!!

Now there's an idea give the dogs something to play with as well.

[ed_blackadder_1]

Lego bricks now they hurt when you stand on them.
