          Something was digging impressive holes in my parents' garden on Friday night, so I set up an infrared camera to record over night on Saturday...

          It was a family of foxes... they were having a great time of it... I think they're trying to dig up that dead cat I buried a month or so ago...

          Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeewwww!

                I warned him about the references scam, but he was already wise to that, so I suggested he have a look at CUK to get a feel for how things are
                They'll find him hanging from something...

                  I had porridge for breakfast.

                  I don't think it entirely agrees with me...

                    Aah. How sweet. It had found somewhere dark and warm and quiet to have its litter baby bags.

                    What did you do to its babies???

                      On my return home a while ago, I realised that I'd left a couple of shirts and a pair of jeans on the washing line. Fearing their imminent colonisation by hordes of spiders, I went to retrieve them.

                      The couple in the Ground Floor Back have left their windows open, it being a warm night. As I went to collect my garments, it became obvious that they were in complete and enthusiastic agreement about something

                      Indeed, so enthused were they that it sounded as if they were jumping up and down on their furniture, the better to express the concord they felt

                      I retrieved my washing as quietly as I could (i.e. without bursting out laughing or shouting words of encouragement) and returned to base - I don't think I distracted them from their earnest philosophical debate


                      My last lady friend could howl for Britain...

                      I always felt it indicated that at least I was doing something right...



                      And very grateful that the other half of the semi was empty at that time...

                      Though the neighbours on the other side tended to give me funny looks...
