I've only started using slug pellets recently, after I discovered the snails had eaten all the pages of my daughter's British passport which had been kept in a suitcase in the shed
I hadn't realised I had SO MANY gastropods residing in my garden until then, and they were starting in on my hollyhocks with enthusiasm but I' almost bored of those now, they kept getting so tall they were falling over and resprouting.
I have some nice red-leaved heuchera mixed in with my black mondo grass this year and I know the little buggers like heuchera and sweet williams, which I am very fond of ... so I am making sure they don't get their little sluggy gnashers* around those. Might start saving egg shells and coffee grounds.
*wanders off to google whether slugs have teeth ... ____________________ Not nearly as interesting in real life. |

I gave my Ninja away as I wasn't finding much use for it, only used it once in about two months.
It was a double one though, and there's only me here, seems pointless having it taking up so much space when (a) I rarely use it ; and (b) I barely even use the microwave either.
So I gave it to my ex when he moved to Wiltshire earlier this year. He has decided not to get a cooker in his new place, so his bird has had to learn how to use the Ninja/microwave combo  ____________________ Not nearly as interesting in real life. |

Oh god, do I have to be woke about hedgehogs as well?  |
Do hedgehogs live right in town? I've never seen one either, nor foxes. Suburbia though, foxes and hedgehogs galore.

We definitely have some of those motherfuckers.
I'm waiting for my Lawrence to invade whatever nest of baby rats he insists on finding every spring and bringing them to eat indoors whilst I sit with my feet up on the sofa shrieking and exhorting him to hurry up and eat the damn thing.
So far the score this year is Baby Rats 0 Lawrence 1.  ____________________ Not nearly as interesting in real life. |

Clicky winged dude
Clicky cuties

Not sure when they are arriving, hopefully on the other side of next Wednesday (!!) but I am now wondering whether I should paint them black or leave them as they are...  ____________________ Not nearly as interesting in real life. |

A kilo of mutton and a kilo of beef, something to make some yummy stew for the critters and myself.
Including a random purchase whilst standing in the halal shop: a bag of dried mango powder.
No idea why. Just took my fancy.
I'll have to find a recipe to use it in now  ____________________ Not nearly as interesting in real life. |

a usb wifi dongle, cause the PC my missus just bought of facebook market place refuses to accept the fact it has a LAN cable stuck in it.
A ratchet crimp terminal tool, on acount of me being fed up of fucking around with vicegrips to crimp terminals, and also needed to spend over 20 quid for before 1pm delivery tomorrow of the above wifi adapter so the better half stops sulking quicker. ____________________ own: 81 xs1100g...
