Guest Ditch_Shitter Posted January 30, 2007 Report Share Posted January 30, 2007 OS; Last week or two now I've had a few big, fat, lazy Blow Flies appear in this room. Evenings mainly. They haven't the Oomph to move much. But they coast down to this work station and I squish them with ease. Could be a poisoned rat's got up into the old thatch, but I doubt it. Could be coming out of winters rest. but they're fat as f*ck. God alone knows what's going on ~ and he's not likely to be telling the likes of us anyway. Quote Link to post
Ossie 11 Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 stingers at mine have finally died, after a bad frost last week. some of the ragwort (evil stuff) is still going strong. snowdrops have started coming up in my garden. theres's a pigeon building a nest in the tree next to my cottage (it won't be building anything after tomorrow, mind... ). had a big fat fly buzzing round my living room a week ago. damn thing kept flying into my monitor, then vanishing.. took 3 days to finally squash it. it's all gone bloody nuts!

Guest JohnGalway Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 It's called Global Warming, and it's a very very bad thing Anyone remotely interested should watch this. Scary stuff but true Quote Link to post

juckler123 707 Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 Anyone see the documentary on global dimming last night i think that was spot on as to what we are in for studied this over 20 yrs ago only good thing to come from it will be an explosion of rabbits and rats should be plenty to go at but breeding all year round will be a problem this season looks like its almost over ive had a few does in kit Quote Link to post
