Can you crop the picture of Thing a bit? If so, that would be a great Calendar or POW pic!

To read the instructions on this dust you would think I brought home a nuclear reactor core!
The scary warnings and the scary wasps had me go full on hazmat. Face shield, mask, gloves, long sleeves, and hoodie!
It is supposed to kill them on contact so I puffed a load down into the crevice and on the outside where they land and emerge.
There is no sign it is doing anything to them at all!
Maybe they won’t emerge in the morning.
I am waiting for full on dark before tackling the ones up in the roof shingles. I have to be on a ladder and I don’t want them flying out and stinging me!
I swear these ones are happily dust bathing in it!!

Moan coming up...
I've had a few run ins with my nearest neighbour, for many months I have been unable to sleep because he has taken up the soundproofing off his living room and bedroom floors taking away all privacy or quiet. Hence no sleep for me during late nights and early mornings. This on top of wrecking my bin area plus relentlessly leaving dirt and rubbish for me too clean up after him in our shared area.

Now I love almost all animals and have rescued countless during my lifetime but this morning I had a bit of a shock too find that my messy uncaring neighbour had a taste of his own medicine because this is what I witnessed on his collection bin as I was leaving for the shops this morning tell me about kalmar

My stallion broke loose one night and I found him waiting for me at the front of the barn.

It wasn’t till I got home from work that my parents told me that the (annoying) neighbour down the road came to the house ranting that my horse had come to his place, walked up onto his front portico and left a lovely pile of horsey doodoo.

My parents told him that all horses were accounted for, even showed him, but my father went up there anyways and scooped up the poop and disposed of it.

I started laughing and told them how Indy was waiting for me at the barn at 4am . We all got a laugh over how Indy just knew which house to visit
