Introducing Sir Dickon

 

Throughout 2020, Daisy the dog has been dispensing invaluable advice. Is the world a better place at the start of 2021? Probably not. Perhaps Daisy hasn’t been expressing herself in the right way, or perhaps she just needs some help.

So, Discussions with My Dog have hired a life coach; someone who can dish out plain and simple solutions to everyday problems. Let me introduce you to Sir Dickon d’ Latrine, magically transported to 2021 from the 14^th Century. Let’s see if some Medieval wisdom can solve the conundrums of the 21^st Century.

Sir Dickon lists his occupation as Knight of the Realm and slayer of dickheads. His pass-times are drinking ale, pillaging, wenching and scratching his arse in contemplation. Sir Dickon has no concept of political correctness, he just calls it as it is.

We’ll start with a simple one – time -

How to distribute your time correctly

Modern society is obsessed with time, we measure our life by the hour, the minute, and the second. Sir Dickon says there are just 4 important times in a day

• Arise at sunrise
• Go to sleep after dark
• Meal-time

and his personal favourite

• Time to take a shite

Everything else is just the filling in between.
