By the way, Dr Filth, your weather forecast is accurate. I know because the local rats and mice have moved into the house ! Previously I could hear them squeaking outside, but now they are in, and no sooner did that happen but a howling northerly wind blew up.

well, my heating's on, it's pigging freezing here tonight - a clear night, and a strong wind direct from Scandinavia :-(

[DrFilth]

lots of people are having problems with rats and mice, i have never known as many people to have this problem.

could it be because of the amount of food dumped by drunks on the pavements
causing them to breed like rabbits

[boxtops]

it's not drunks dumping food on the pavement round here, it's the youngsters chucking half-eaten burgers on the floor

[DrFilth]

we have a good mixture on my lane, seen cars go down and they just chuck there maccy box out the window, half a pizza from some drunk dumped on the pavement, chips curry etc

Fracking - that is one of the answers, the other to encourage offshore exploration in the southern Celtic Seas and that means tax reduction on primary production, most people unaware that the UK govt (esp the past Govt) liberal to impose such 'hidden' taxes - and hence disencourage the UK sector from replacing reserves.

After all, what is the encouragement for us to fund the wee fat haggis and his cronies?

I don't understand the rubbish-dumping carelessness. We went to an event in a field a while back, an entire family threw all their cartons etc out of the car windows for someone else to pick up.

After September 2014 Holyrood will set the prices of energy for the people of Scotland, not the energy suppliers, and they know it. It sort of warms me up, that does:-)

> an entire family threw all their cartons etc out of the car windows <

so what does that teach the kids ?


if when i was young i did not put it in a bin i would be made to pick it up and carry it to the next bin by my dad

Precisely, Drf :-(
