Oh. Wait.
Miss Gledhill, who has since been barred from the pub, told the court: 'I had seen McKinley go up to the dog a few times but it doesn't give the dog the right to bite my son.'Jesus Christ, how about telling your spawn to leave the poor bloody animal be? Couldn’t you spare the time from your seven hour drinking session…?
'After it happened we had to get rid of our Jack Russell Rex who was a puppy we'd got at Christmas because McKinley was petrified of dogs.'Probably best for the poor little sod. You shouldn’t have children, never mind animals.
Father Aaron, 32, said: 'I know it's a pub but it's a family pub and there's always lots of kids in there - and I want the dog to be destroyed for what it did to my son. 'I want irresponsible parents who let their kids run wild castrated. I won’t get my wish, why should you get yours?
The dog's owner, Margaret Wilson, who runs the Oddfellows Arms in Bolton, Greater Manchester was convicted of having a dog dangerously out of control last week.
She was fined £200 and ordered to pay £520 in costs, but her dog, named Caine, will not be destroyed. Instead it must wear a muzzle in public places and in the pub area at all times.The magistrates should have thrown this one out.
A 7 hour family day out to the pub?
ReplyDeleteNow I love a drink, but after that amount of time I'd probably be a bit wobbly.
Are parents who've been drinking for 7 hours in a fit state to look after children?
How about a leash at all times for the children accompanying parents and a muzzle to keep their noise down?
ReplyDeleteMcKinley? WTF sort of first name is that for a mother called Sammi-Jo to give her spawn?
ReplyDeleteThere's more amusement in the pictures, as little Mac tries to eat a sausage and a fork together - he's obviously not used to any cutlery at all.
"I want irresponsible parents who let their kids run wild castrated"
ReplyDeleteIf only it could be done before they breed...
Bunny
ReplyDeleteYet again I am with Mr Treen's comments, why in the name of all that is holy call your child McKinley it's a f**king surname! Also seven hours in a pub with kids.
Pubs went downhill when breweries Watneyised their pubs,first unaccompanied women, then children. The subsequent decline in manners coupled with an underclass with money to burn on seven hour binges but not babysitters turn some pubs into another level of Danté's vision of Hell.
ReplyDelete"Are parents who've been drinking for 7 hours in a fit state to look after children?"
ReplyDeleteShe claims she wasn't. And I've got a great bridge to sell you...
"How about a leash at all times for the children accompanying parents and a muzzle to keep their noise down?"
THIS!
"McKinley? WTF sort of first name is that for a mother called Sammi-Jo to give her spawn?"
Chavnames ahoy!
"... turn some pubs into another level of Danté's vision of Hell."
ReplyDeleteThough I suspect Hell is quieter.
