DOGGING

Yesterday on a cycling / hiking expedition with mini Madam and half a dozen of her friends.

SELF IMPORTANT DOG WALKER: (who could see jolly well we didn't)... you haven't got a dog with you have you?

ME: .......................

SIDW: It's just that he (dog) doesn't like other dogs. He's fine with people.

ME: You haven't got a bicycle with you, have you?

SIDW: No ...... (puzzled).... why?

ME: It's this bike, you see. Bit fearsome around other bicycles.
