The awkward situation faced by many dog walkers crossing paths when one is on a lead, the other isnt (although many variants are possible with more than one dog per owner.)
The dog owner who has not put their dog on a lead is worried that the owner who has put their dog on a lead is cosidering them to not be in adequate control of their animal.
Likewise the owner who has their dog on a lead may feel they are not giving the dog enough freedom.
Normally resolves itself in one of 3 ways.
1. The non leaded dog owner says 'He's friendly' and the comment is confirmed by the dogs behaviour.
2. The non leaded dog annoys the leaded dog, the leaded dog owner expressed disapproval and apologies are made usually ('Hes normally SOOOOOO friendly!')
3. The owner of the non leaded dog puts their dog on a lead.

Similar to Twixmas, except Twixpiphany is the time between Jan 1 and Jan 6, when it is still technically 'Christmas' as it is not yet Twelfth Night, but with New Year celebrated and a return to work, consists of eating the last Christmas leftovers (mince pies, Twiglets etc) and the favourite phrase 'Have you STILL got that tree up?'
Of course, in most European countries which actually have Epiphany as a bank holiday, Twixpiphany is the countdown to Christmas's closing party.

A phenomenon common in coastal regions where a pattern of cloud building just inland with clear skies out to sea can divide a major city in two for hours, with one half in constant sunshine and one half in constant shade. First noticed in Plymouth.
Can also refer to fog related microclimates where the coast of, say LA may be under chilly thick fog but a few blocks inland basks in warm sunshine.

A Photo Socialist is a person in a group who wants to have their group photo taken, so therefore requires eliciting a stranger to do so.
'Nah, I didnt pull at Eightcrasher last night. I got talking to a photo socialist or two but nothing came of it!
