Did you know that more than 75% of alleged abusers are family members? We hear awful stories in the media of older people being abused in care facilities, scammed on the internet or taunted by the general public, but for thousands of older New Zealander's the abuse happens in their own home. Please get in contact with your local Age Concern if you suspect a family member, friend or neighbour is being abused. We can Help. #WEAAD #alwaysrespected

Cliques I am sick of:
1/ To be fair.
2/ At the end of the day.
3/ Yeah, Nah (yes, no)
Have you too had enough of these remarks that politicians down the chain say so often.
Quite often there is no need to be fair or fairness is not the object. Its simply filling a one dimensional gap.

Surely there are alternative words or an alternative word to mean "at the end of the day".
A written social clique like on Neighbourly or in Facebook that I find is often most likely untrue is:
1/ LOL (laugh out loud)
2/ Just saying.
LOL is often used at the end of a comment to lighten the effects of the comment or make out that the comment is not serious and is a way to hide behind the real intent of the comment.
"Just saying" is mostly not just saying but fully meaning in concrete terms what the just saying person has written.
There are other social cliques and excusing words I am sure.

I have a papillon dog six years. I get him groomed every few months but in between I am unable to brush him. He runs away plus he growls having no luck. Is anyone able to help?

Also looking for a bicycle for a 12yr old boy - condition not too important as i'm happy to put some TLC into one that needs some work if you might have one lying around :)
Size 12 unisex kids school trackpants. Excellent condition as only worn about 6 times.
