RIP

[DaveTTC]

This a sad day when going to look at a job ends up in the termination of a partnership. They were made for each other and were so helpful for me. It took so long to find this pair and today is the end of an era.

I had a guy want help with installing a range hood. I have helped him with many things over the past several years.

As I entered the property his 10' 300 lb puppy accosted me. Then as I try to walk around him and ignore his playfulness he landed fair and square on my right heel as I was walking away. Limb was torn from sole. My thong was holding at two points only.

To rub salt into the wound, coming back outside after looking at the job the pooch had taken the left thong under the house.

On a burning hot day I had to negotiate across dry grass full of cat heads, road base drive with no shade and melting bitchimum to get back to my car.

RIP my beloved thongs.

Sadly in this town there is no where to by replacement

Now you know what a sole feels like when it burns in Hell.

Sad loss of a partner - but it is replaceable in time.

Understand what you have gone through.
Always go dressed for the job, that is in safety footwear. Give the puppy lots of affection and then it will probably ignore you.
I have had a client with an overweight Labrador, that was too big for the owners to control. It would take stuff out of my tool box.

I'm so sorry to hear of your loss mate. Just try to remember the good times you had together.

There's an old saying...

Thongs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole.

Take care

Could have been worse. Could have been your beloved hat.

not the hat

Last time I saw your hat I thought the dog had already had its way with it. I apologise for my error.

Not a member of the thong wearers union. Hate the bloody things!

Unfortunately I have a wounded heel and have been forced into wearing a pair until
it heals!! Think I will stay inside barefooted until that happens.

Dave just be thankful it wasn't your other thong he grabbed ............not the foot type
