Carol,
Just exactly who shouldn't be out? sounds like that guy shouldn't have
been, to me! how dare he shout such a thing !
I think there needs to be some changes to the way guide dog's are
trained. Introduce new commands like "Kill" for instance. How to
punish such people? well how about putting a bell around their neck, and
throwing them into the middle of a blind kids football match!
Oh well have to go now, coming nurse.
Dave
Oh Billy, don't let them do this to you! Tell them straight, "We can go
out too!"
I remember the week before Christmas as Mike and I walked with our dogs
down a busy London street. We heard a man come alongside and shouting,
"You shouldn't be out." It was obvious he was talking to us and,
whether he meant we shouldn't face all the busyness before Christmas or
what I don't know but we told him we had every right and were enjoying
ourselves!
