Just noticed that w-o-c-k-e-r isn't acceptable?
« on: May 25, 2006, 11:13:14 PM »
I have a working cocker and have no problem with people calling him a 'w*cker'.  I've just tried to use this term in the nickname post and the forum automatically corrects it to 'working cocker'.  Is this not a good way to discribe my boy?

PS - I have had to add a * to the name as if it was a swear word!

Eddited to add that the word is w-o-c-k-e-r ... is this so bad?

Thanks!  I will have to mind my language from now on (not that I thought it was bad in the first place) :lol:
