Woodrot (anyone ever call you Rotty?) --- Lets consider them giant, malformed rats. Technically speaking Im not living in ED yet, so you have time to adjust to the idea.


Alan -- We= me + cats. Sadly enough. Logistically it was too complicated to arrive in London at the same time when the cats need to be shipped from an airport that is 400 miles away. Then there was the issue of me arriving and trying to manage 2 giant suitcases, 2 carry-ons and 2 large kennels. A hot mess just waiting to happen.

They will be in trouble if they mistake London rats for the cute American possum. On the flip side it's a mistake they will only make once.

Slump is right. In fact the recent sporting festivities have left us all with somewhat of a euphoric let-down or;

I missed the Olympics. So I don't feel the depression. In fact I think the temporary Olympic fans are temporary sports fans of the lowest order.


If they don't continue to follow the Olympic sports then I think we can call them temporary sports fans

    • The venn diagram of people who are personally really bothered by the noise from GALA and are also deeply concerned about the local bat population looks remarkably just like a circle.
    • Language is a fluid and evolving thing and as it changes the original meaning of words can alter to take on a new true meaning or meanings. Original meaning is not the same as true meaning. Take the word literal which is now used to mean the very opposite of how the word used to be used, irritating for some of us but demonstrates the English language is vibrant and alive and also very subjective. But I must go and make myself a cup of tea now or I will literally die of thirst 
    • With the right type of feeder arrangement the access by parakeets, squirrels and rats can be eliminated completely. Likewise, the spread of disease can be minimised. The best method is to hang individual feeders inside a wire  cage that has a 2"x2" mesh on all sides that is mounted above ground. Being above ground it stops slugs and rats getting in. And with mesh on the bottom,the risk of transmitting disease from any droppings is eliminated. Small birds feel safe from predators in three These cages are available online for about £33
    • It is worthwhile noting that the original technical meaning was 'a reduction of 10%', which does not, to my mind, chime at all with 'drastically reduce'. I know that's how it is, I think lazily, often used nowadays but it does allow 'decimate' to be used so loosely that it loses meaning. And it can be confusing to those who know it's original meaning. I think that the fact that decimate and devastate are close homonyms does not help things here.
