I don't know anyone that has happened to in the UK:confused:

It never happened to my kids.

Mine neither...just that some folk think things like this would never happen in OZ.

If this had happened in the UK people would be queueing up to say it was another good reason to leave the country:rolleyes:

Surely Australia hasn't 'gone to the dogs' as well?? :rolleyes: Those bloody dogs.

Re: Teenagers threaten my 11 year old in the park

You need to check out the 'dogs' in the whinging Poms magazine thread:rofl:

Jeez Renth that's horrible. Sounds like the martial arts classes are a good idea. Big hugs to your boy - I'm so grateful nothing like that has happened to mine.

Jesus, I'm so disappointed; I thought Australia was perfect and nothing bad ever happened there and that they have perfect weather and you're everyone's "mate" and there are no scallies!!:(

I was planning on moving out there so that all my problems would go away 'cause the UK is going to the dogs and it always rains and you get mugged on every street corner...

Not joking, some people actually think like that

Re: Teenagers threaten my 11 year old in the park
 

Joking? I just got mugged on the corner of my street by a dog in the rain!!!:rofl:

Our youngest lad (19) got picked on by a group near the GBT at the weekend; we've taught them all to avoid trouble if they can....... but apparently this time it was unavoidable as one of the other lads came in swinging.

Bet he wished he hadn't now as my lad was able to bob and weave; and with one accurate punch he's knocked someone out ....... but broken his hand in the process:eek:

Bit of a worry with all this 'one-punch' controversy? But what do you do ....... aren't we allowed to defend ourselves anymore? Poor bloke can't win a trick ............ he has to have surgery on his hand next week ............ and has copped nothing but flak from his mum on a daily basis ever since.:mad:

I missed out too as he was going to muck in and help me finish off my retaining wall this week.............. 75kg blocks are a bit hard to manouvre on me own.
