Dogs

A couple of interesting developments this week, all school related.
As Peter Kay recalls "Everyone always remembers the day a dog ran into your school". Well that day for me was yesterday morning at approx 8.30am when a dog shot past me on the corridor and disappeared round the corner before I could wake up and realise what had just happened. The pesky mutt was shepherded into the Maths office, where the female members of staff (predictably?) scarpered/reprimanded colleagues for bringing pets into school/went hysterical after noticing it was a 1 of the 4 breeds of dog considered dangerous by the Home Office. A pit bull.
But the most sinister event happened later that day. Clearing the table in the office we couldn't trace the owner to a bottle of drink. The liquid inside was clear and pale yellow in colour. Worst suspicions were disregarded until today, when the liquid had become 'cloudy' and a couple of tentative 'sniffs' confirmed it wasn't fruit juice. A full sniff was made by a colleague who nearly dry wretched, and another colleague proclaimed 'Seriously, something has to be done about this. We can't just have people coming into our office and p***ing'. The merits of asking the science lab to confirm what we are 99% sure of are being considered, though this won't do the department's image any good....
