RE: The Official Nonsense Thread
I am going to start a new award each year for the householder with the clearest gutters and I think Minty will win every time. It makes me wonder what state our gutters are in, given that they are four floors up and I can't imagine anybody ever cleaning them out.
If I allowed an hour per day I don't think I'd be able to keep up with the influx of spiders - we are overrun, I tell you! And some of them are huge. I got trapped with one in the shower yesterday as I didn't notice it before I'd hopped into the tub - we kept running to different ends of the bath to avoid each other. He was very speedy. Eventually I managed to catch him in jam jar from the recycling box. I keep chucking them out into the garden and they merrily stroll back in. I don't really understand why people kill them, though - I do get creeped out by the big spindly ones but I appreciate our spiders and their useful munching of greater foes (and then they themselves can be munched by the poor hungry birdies) so I will continue to capture and release rather than squish. I'm off work today due to feeling like complete shine. Hopefully I will make it back in tomorrow, as I'm then off again to go up north to check on the various unwell family members. I am hoping that I can get to the match on Saturday as well, although I seem to be the only one enthusiastic about that plan. I suppose I might just go by myself if nobody else is up for it. It's not too cold yet so I should be all right - when they play in the winter it's so cold in the stand that I need my brother and my dad either side as windbreaks. |
