Re: Evil weevils

Or just nipped round to borrow a cup of sugar?

We don't have weevil problems any more, although going 400 miles to move house was possibly an extreme solution.

Wasn't there an old Disney film about a family that move, don't take the pets and the pets travel 400 miles across country to be with them..

Maybe your weevils are planning to re-enact that?

Don't even joke about it

I slung it out on the doorstep, which gave me cause to reflect on my life. Instead of throwing out cute 18 yr olds on a morning, I'm flinging out assorted wildlife

Just back off holiday this week and had to throw three bags out.

Bugger me

Colin was a member until recently so, as I understand it, when he's asked for himself to be removed, the system resets his posts as a Guest.
