Think I'll stick to the Stella :)

The scientific research guy on now sounds pissed out of his skull :))

Yeh I spotted that - but they're in the Maudsley now - well Institute of Psychiatry anyway, Denmark Hill :))

:))

I've got my Stella all ready - in fact I'm half way down the first can - but I already know the answer so not sure I can be arsed watching it really :))

Stupid question I know, but presumably you have tried googling, er, "rugs" ?

Christ, who wants to be normal?? :-S

Thanks people - b***** squirrels! Thanks for the blue tit clip, but really, ungrateful little sods - they have a peanut feeder constantly topped up, a fatball feeder ditto, they did (pre squirrel attack) have a seed feeder, and still they eat paint off my window sill :))

Shouldn't the thread title be "FOUND" not "LOST"??

Can anyone explain why a blue tit would peck at paint on my bathroom window sill? I thought there might be insects there, but it (and other birds) appear to be actually stripping the paint :-S And they are well provided for with peanuts and fat balls, as well! Also - something has made off with a whole net of birdseed which was hanging on a branch - plus the metal hook it was hanging from!! Surely a squirrel couldn't do that?? It's all completely disappeared! :-S

One got a starling in my garden last year.

Wouldn't you say?! xxxxxx No, because there's no way it could have got in. The cat who came in later came in through the back door when it was open. I don't leave doors open in the middle of the night!!

Though have had a good laugh :)) I had a ghost cat in my bedroom for a while, though it seems to have gone now. Will that do? Edited to say: It jumped on my bed in the middle of the night in that way that cats do and then walked over me/the quilt. No I wasn't dreaming. It scritchy-scratchied in the corner of the room quite often. One day a cat wandered in from outside, went straight up to my bedroom, straight to that corner, then shot out of the house again. Spooky or what?? This was a few years back, haven't felt or heard it since.

I still look at it.

Have a thoroughly well deserved break, and thanks so much for all your hard work. But, er, what's "cookwank"? Did I miss something? My mind is boggling ...... :-$

Do you have any tales to tell, as you are writing an article about local hauntings?

You have forgotten the person/people who stands/stand a few steps up the stairs, thus indicating "the upper deck is full", when actually it is about half empty. Or the person who says "there's no seats upstairs" when they haven't actually ventured to the back, where there are several vacant seats. (6)

Well said LegalBeagle

I use eBay quite a bit as a buyer, and the only minor problem I've ever had was with fairy lights which came with the wrong adaptor which was unsafe to use in this country. The seller disputed it but I got my money back. Everything else I've bought I've felt was good value, particularly new shoes (genuine) which I've got for a lot less than I'd have got them in a high street shop. However I must admit I have a few things which have been kicking about for years because I've not got round to putting them on eBay - anyone want a Tibetan/Nepalese tangka?!

Oh come on, surely somebody else but me must have seen it and thought it was a bit, er, odd. No??

There's usually/always one at Crystal Palace, as well, been good when I've been to it

This was the Saturday Guardian's "unsettling animal picture of the week" the other week. Surely it must have been photoshopped??? Snake born with hand
