Even if it were someone she knew well, she'd look askance if they wore a uniform. Although our postman was a lovely, gentle man, she'd bark and bark as if he were a robber.

Some postal workers have been hospitalised and some have lost fingers etc. as well as their confidence. It is not a laughing matter and in my view guilty dog owners should be clamped in the village stocks and pelted with rotten fruit and eggs.

She saw a strange man looming over the child and promptly chased him off the property giving him a nip on the backside for good measure. I was mortified and phoned the wife to apologise. She said not to worry.
