Little thing that p!ss us of.... mark 2

Jeez, the day we start listening to what the Parkies say is the day we all might as well pack up and move to the city. They run around up here telling us what to do too but we mostly ignore them. As my BIL says "**** 'em". Yep, that's another thing that p!sses me off.

Iain, I hope you skinned it and threw it on the fire. My mate likes to catch them and reckons they make a good feed - taste like chicken (doesn't everything?).

The only snakes we don't kill here are the red-belly blacks because they keep those bastard tigers away.

We have a rather large resident blacky but I haven't seen him for a while, we call him Jesus as thats what I usually say when I surprise him, or is that the other way around.
Having said that I will not, ever, ever, ever tolerate tigers around the house and bugger the parks.
Of course it's a major threat in a 10th floor office where someone dreams up these regs.
Our local council are trying to introduce regs as to how many horses we can keep, they have come up with a magical figure of one horse per hectare, we run three per hectare without the need for supplementary feed, and we grow our own hay and lucerne.
And on the subject of whats pisses me right off is these bloody bike racers who close off the road outside my place and tell me I can go out when they have finished, ho ho bloody ho, good try noddy, me and my float are going out right now, not in an hours time.

Iain i had a snake problem here (i have 50 acres of snake heaven) so i got my self some guinea fowls they just walk around picking up insects spiders ect ect. when one comes across a snake it calls out and all the other guinea fowl come running and they all peck the crap out of the snake till just a few bones are left i havn't had a snake around the house since i got the guineas just over 4 years and the parkies can't fine the guineas

How do you make a snake meow?

I must confess I have never tried snake soup.

But I had tasted turtle soup when I was 10. :eek:

Boo. Hiss. I was looking forward to finding out how the Parkies handled the Guinea Fowls. :D

Perhaps, fined ... then roasted with chips :p

Cheers

Obviously someone's POOSSLQ has more bottle than I have - I'm a big believer in Mr. 12 guage, shovels are for spiders. :p

Being a City Boy from waaaay back (with Country Cousins) another thing that should qualify for retro-active abortion (thanks Gough) are those ^$^^% that get at the top or bottom of escalators & prop while they have a natter with their friends or just rubber neck. Specially the ones who do it at the bottom, with 20 or so people trying to avoid trampling them. :mad:

Daddles,
you've obviously never tried eating guinea fowl (or anything else that runs wild from dawn till dusk). ;) Definitely a job for the crock pot or making a soup stock out of. Plenty of flavour, but I've got old boots that are softer. :eek:

Excessive packaging that overloads the wheelie bins
God botherers who won't leave us alone
My SCMS that cut some timber too short yesterday :rolleyes:
Cheap and nasty drill bits
Fuel prices
Qeues at banks when tellers are standing around head immersed in a cup of something chittering about lastnights venture and ignoring customers
Arrogance of receptionists at some medical specialists rooms, they are NOT bloody doctors and don't tell me whats wrong
