I don't give a monkeys...

…about dog dirt refusniks. Did you read that story about the thief who snatched an elderly woman’s handbag? Opening up his prize, he found it contained only one thing: dog s***.

This is a beautiful helping of just desserts, and possibly presents the first legitimate use of the term “turd burglar”, but I know what you’re thinking. Why was an old dear carting around a bag of canine faeces? Aren’t there special bins for this? Well, yes. But you can never find any...

We our proud to be partnering anti-litter charity Keep Britain Tidy in their new campaign targeting irresponsible dog owners.

Now Showing On BBC One!

We were lucky enough to be involved with the recent BBC program, featuring Jo Malone (cosmetics and toiletries queen) and her business partner Nick Leslau.  Our Website designers Channel Computing sent us the initial contact information which they had received from Cornwall Chamber of Commerce.  The production company wanted to hear from new and innovative companies to feature in their new production.  We sent of our details, not necessarily expecting to hear any more, especially as I was my usual dry witted self. Just goes to prove production companies do have a sense of humour!

The Call Up

To our surprise we got a call from Sarah one of the production team at the end of November, telling us that they were keen to see us for an initial interview the next weekend, a whole 2 days time.  Bearing in mind that we live in Cornwall, a mere 300 miles away, run 3 businesses and have 4 kids and 2 dogs we panicked slightly but with much planning and help from great friends both in Cornwall and Essex we were able to make the meeting, with all 4 kids in tow.
