Dead woodlouse
Snuffed it. Bereft of life. In the middle of my living room carpet. The last time I saw it was happily scurrying around next to my mobile phone

Re: Dead woodlouse

Re: Dead woodlouse
I was thinking more along the lines of "If being near the phone killed the woodlouse, then what's the phone doing to me"....

Well I was making assumptions about forum members and intelligence I thought the location of the thread might have given it away. I can't believe people thought I was mourning the loss of the woodlouse  Do I look that sad
