Many, many moons ago I used to crochet poodles for all the kids, with white plastic from grocery bags. They were actually kind of cute.

I wonder if those instructions are still in existence somewhere.

Oh dear, look what I have started. There aren't pink grocery bags, are there???? Dawne

I dearly hope not. They would look odd, wouldn't they?

Just so you know, I have absolutely no desire to crochet a pink poodle now. I'm happy enough with my fluffy, frou frou, Puff.

Yuckky , never saw that !

I haven't seen poodles but the name would seem appropriate lol

If you find it, please make me one. A friend and I are doing a Charity bridge game for a local animal shelter (they do not euthanize unless the animal is sick) and I know this would make an excellent door prize. Just because we think it's yucky, I know there are people who will be going who will looooooove it ! Game in January, so plenty of time.

You're committed now to doing at least one more lol

Oh, then I'm delighted to have shared this objet d'arte with you! I've seen it and I've hated it many times. It look just stunning done in slightly smudged hand writing and framed in a lovely, just a tad tacky, plastic canvas frame, cross stitched with worsted wool. LOL

If you only knew how much I hope no one finds those instructions !!!!

I hope they do, you KNOW you want to help the unfortunate animals.

I damn near put that up on one place I worked that had "single occupant facilities" in the outlaying parts of the building. It was either take your chances or walk a zillion miles (or so it would seem).

Sounds like a challenge to me... I'm off and hunting.

Good one Elizabeth! ;->

I can do short too (but it's plagiarised from... I forget where...)

'We aim to please So you aim too, please!'

Does that come under the category of plagiarism? I think if you don't attribute it to yourself, it's borrowing, not plagiarizing.

Oh, mine was absolutely plagiarized. I've known it for so long, though, I can't remember the source. Mad Magazine, perhaps.

Seen in the gent's toilet at a rural British pub "We aim to please. Will you aim too, please"

I sincerely hope someone finds it ! It's for a good cause.

Is that at the one that reputably had a fly in the porcelain which was for aiming at ??

Here's a link where someone else remembers garbage bags poodles, in fact their remembering is quite funny lol

seen in customer bathroom:

We aim to please You aim too, please
