    I'll get Mr MWC to pee in the garden when he gets back from his business trip (Wednesday). If that doesn't work then, yes please!

    Feeling fed up so binged on a bag of S&V twirls and a box of chocolates... don't feel any better but do feel sick...

    So sorry to hear that MWC x

    Blinking foxes.

    We've had a fox in the garden on two separate evenings over the last couple of weeks but so far been lucky. I'm sure it's just a matter of time before he strikes :(

    Sorry to hear about Miss Beryl :(

    Bingeing *seems* to think it'll be great, but the effects are horrible :( take care of yourself.

  • I have no idea whether having the smell of the hounds in your garden would ward off foxes- if so,we can pop over anytime with them.

    Just make aure Mr MWC had allergy treatment first :)

    Best wishes, Tilly x x x

    Sorry about Miss Beryl :(
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
    :) Mortgage Balance = £0 :)
