    I am mainly working myself up to shower again
    I am a filthy creature lol.

    Almost got a pic of kitten last night (I have the feeling she wants to live here as she's visited every night for the last few)
    Tomcat is most unimpressed

    OH has nicknamed her foxy................


    Eta she's not eating tomcat food (unless I can't get to her before she gets it) she's eating my sardines.

    More grrrr!

    I had a meeting this morning, but managed to do a scary thing at the same time, so tick.

    Then I went straight to the supermarket as I was low on several things, and hadn't been able to go over the last four days due to not feeling well.

    Anyway, got my shopping and took it out to the car, only to find my car completely, utterly and totally (well almost) covered in bird !!!!.
    :mad::mad::mad:

    I don't just mean a couple of blobs, I mean a couple of dozen very large blobs, over every side of the car, both windscreens and all the side windows. :(:(:(
    !!!!!!?

    It must have been a whole flock of bloody gulls or something. :mad:

    To make things worse, the cars either side of me were perfectly clean. And it had dried on, so must have happened as soon as I'd left the car. And it wasn't under a tree either.

    So I had to go home, unload my shopping, and then set to with the bird lime neutraliser. Then rub and scrape, rub and scrape. Then fill four bucket loads of water to throw over the car to wash off the residue.

    I love wildlife, but there are times I could happily MURDER IT!
    (Not really, but it helps to shout).

    The only good thing was that I hadn't only just had the car washed.
    If I had, I'd have gone straight to the air-rifle shop.
    (Not really, but I said that in case the perpetrators are listening).

    Have gone flopbot with a cup of tea and a caramel doughnut now.
    :(:mad::(:mad:



    Edit. And the caramel doughnut wasn't very nice. :(

    ((((Pyxis)))) Well, at least it's meant to be lucky! :p Or is that only if it poops on a person?

    Hope the doughnut helped ease the stress a little bit!

    Well, my car must have been the luckiest car in the whole world then! Shame it couldn't have cleaned itself!

    And the doughnut was horrid! :rotfl:

    So have opened a bottle of Golden Pride. :cool:

    Feeling a tad better today. Been painting with Escapette, she promptly fell asleep covered in paint so just hope she doesnt stain otherwise will have some explaining to do when Bearded One gets home!

    Got a prescription for anti-d's again to reduce my anxiety so hopefully I can let myself fall asleep, just not sure I want to take them.

    How everyone else is well

    Have a nice break Ono!
    Pyxis you should be the luckiest person ever now!

    I already have a running one, so I shall expect to win the jackpot tonight!

    If you don't hear from me after tonight, I shall be on that big world-class cruiser, somewhere on another ocean! :rotfl:
