    @ Puma:

    Do they not ruin your garden though?

    I am currently hoping that the local badgers decide to vacate my orchard. With their massive paws they rip up the grass looking for tasty snacks then leave a ‘deposit’, just to show they have visited.

    Getting quite hacked off with them now!! 🙄

    Hope you right carol. That would help my team and the Bulls. However, think Chiefs will win. Hope not though. Okay see gbs has the Canes/ Chiefs thread up heading to that thread.

    No actually they don’t. They just stay around one tree. Always think they might fall in the pool which is close by the tree but they never do. I enjoy the Monkeys here as well. I know many around here don’t but I do.love the wild life we get here.
