Mrs BP is a great chef and has a superb squirrel recipe. Squirrel breasts in satay sauce. But you need 2.

The cats did bring in a rat once : thankfully it was entire. Also frogs, birds, pigeons and mice are regular favourites.

My advice is to send them to a business school for an MBA so that they can manage the outsourcing process and leverage strategy skills over a sinergic approach.

synergetic

The little blighters had decided to build a house in my garden
They had used planks of wood and done quite a professional job.

Talking of which, one of the squirrels in our garden is mental or on crack cocaine.

If anything startles him, he bounces off the garden wall, then the tree and anything else in sight.

He then continues to eat his bread/nuts/rose heads as though nothing had happened.
