Lolliepop_girl Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 of course. every forum needs a slug appreciation thread, i don't see why we didn't have one before now. Agreed and agreed! is this thread wiring on the zoological side..? I hate insects, but I don't mind slugs. Just an appreciation thread for slugs I think And no doubt another thread in the near future (about an hours time:naughty:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaaaaaaaaaaw! Poor Mika! Are you going to hold a funeral for all your pics or do you think they might just be ok? Where did you get Mika pictures from anyway? I've seen TWO Mika articles in NZ!

Where did you get Mika pictures from anyway? I've seen TWO Mika articles in NZ! well, i was considering doing that, but then i'll have to buy a whole new folder. on second note, maybe i'll steal one from my dads office. i printed them off the computer on photo paper. thats better than me!! i remember reading a article on mika in one of my friends girly mags in 07. it was talking about grace kelly and mika.

sienna Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 I want him to post a new blog just to move the Blackall Project one down... those slugs are creeping me out. At first I always liked seeing the latest edition of the Blackall Project when I refreshed the page but after a week it gets annoying. Also he said he would be "writing soon"...whatever that means. Why don’t you stop looking at it? And now you will tell me it’s because you don’t want to miss when he’s writing again…don’t worry…just follow this thread… Okay you have to wade through slugs and cows sometimes but most of the time it's very funny reading!

racinghorse83 Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 i love spiders. i have like 5 living in my room. they're probably my best room-buddies, coz they get rid of those horrible mosquitoes in a way that bug spray cannot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sienna Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 I think we all would if we were left in a field!! they are worth about $2000 apeice. you have to like them. I was just kidding; I have all the respect in the world for cows! But growing up in a city I really didn't came close to one until just a couple of years ago when I was visiting a farm. I saw a really funny thing that made me think about cows in a quite different way. They had a dog on the farm and this dog was so annoying for the cows, chasing them and barking at them all the time, he was the kind of dog who was supposed to keep the animals together…I don’t remember the word for it. One day the farmer took the dog in to the cow’s field in a leash and the cows took advantage of the situation and started to chase him…I almost couldn’t believe my eyes…it was really sweet and funny to see cows take revenge in a dog!

Naectegale Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 :roftl My younger daughter usually deals with them unless theyare too big!! I have not seen any rats here - but my friend cornered one on a staircase as he was going up and just came upon it - because it was cornered it went for him!! :shocked :eek: RATS! I once went into a house infested with rats - the worst infestation the rentokill man had ever seen. My friend used to look after houses for very rich arabs, who came over to London for the summer, but left the houses empty a lot. One day, when I was with her, we went to one of the houses, which had been empty for a few weeks at the end of summer - It was a 5-story house in Knightsbridge - v. expensively furnished. When we went in, we saw little droppings along the skirting board, and an unpleasant smell. It was much worse in the basement - lots of droppings coming from the basement servant's bathroom. But the droppings were even found on the fifth floor, and every single doorpost in the house had been gnawed up to as high as the average large rat could reach They had even nested in the £4,000 silk sofa - when someone moved it, a dead rat fell out :shocked: (this was later - after they had put poison down to get rid of them) That's my rat story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
