I can just see it. You, Tighty, Laxie and Geo facing the contrite Tikay. In the middle, on the floor is a bag of cement and all of you holding fresh pineapples. Then you start a fire and burn a stuffed camel and a wax model of The Burj Al Arab. Finally, you give Tikay one of those small traction engine jobbies, powered by methylated spirit, that I always wanted as a child but was never allowed and send him on his way.
Get me a pint draw of what you're drinking smoking. FYP  I just woke from a nap and read it...a few times. Still sat here with a quizzical look on my face and me head tilted to the side. "Huh?"  Think I need to go lie down again. I want to know how hector has been tapping into my dreams. I need to lay off the cheese. |

Oh yeah!!! Think birds might be eating from the feeders I put out! Can't tell for sure because they always fly away when I go to look. But I see them heading that way through my window and there's less food in the feeders now.
Going to set up a stake out at one of the upstairs windows. They won't see me there.

I bet when Hugh Hefner dies, you won't hear anyone say, "He's in a better place."

Unless the food is evaporating or decomposing at a rapid rate, I think it's safe to say that it's being eaten.  |

It's better to be looking at it than looking for it.

Possibly the wettest drought on record? Trouble is it's the wrong kind of rain now, so it won't help. |

I had to make do with a second hand Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ45... I don't have 20 or so friends and relatives to buy me a new one.  Arrived yesterday, unfortunately all pics thus far have been taken on full zoom, through rain spattered windows! |
