Stephen, that might not work for two reasons: first, I have not got a shot gun; and second, haven't you ever heard, that's how flying squirrels get made? You guys on the other side of the pond sure sound like a violent bunch! LOL

Yes we got a special act of parliament that allows us to bear arms to defend oursel'ves from flying squirels.

ok...i gotta get into the squirrel talk. i have to tell you TX squirrels are a breed to be reckoned with!! in CT the squirrels go about their business and should you come near them they typically flee. Here in TX...not so much. i have been on several mountain bike rides where these damn things actually run after you and around you while you're trying to peacefully ride your bike in the trail. they're crazy!!!! :) i

Hi Rosemary, Its Hireditry, actually my mum hates them sooo much, diggin up her prized bulbs.......its quite something to see an 82 yr old chargin into the garden, cusin or bangin on the window........... I do wish she wouldn't do it when I'm workin in the next room (I work from home....hers!)

Emma wants a cut on our road show wadaya think?

Marilyn,
I think the squirrels sort of view the spinner as a type of mini-rodeo. They actually place bets on how long they can stay on there. One dramatic little Texas squirrel even wears a wee cowboy hat and squeaks "YeeHaww" when he's flying off there.

Stephen, I'd NO idea that you are squirrelist. Where does this animosity come from? Did one of them steal your nuts when you were young?

O.K., you guys are killing me. There's too many coyotes where I live for any squirrels to survive. Although, when I lived in the city, the squirrels there had their own gangs, turf wars, and would mug you in a heart beat.
Stephen- That's a visual that will keep a smile on my face for hours!

Its become a standard part of my mums keep fit routine,....... she can be a bit grouchy if she hasn't chased a sqirrel or two.

Greetings, comrades.
On a Friday night I like to impale Grey squirrels.
My name is Vlad.
I am a Red squirrel and you may not know this, but Grey squirrels are our enemy.
They kill us.

Stephen, your lovely Mum should do more than just shout at Grey squirrels, she should put landmines in her garden. KILL THEM.
Marissa, give those Coyotes a martini - get information on good recipes from Choice.
Lisa, run those Grey squirrels over with your bike. KILL THEM.
Marilyn, take Stephen's advice on the shotgun and be glad that you live in the US since you can own a gun. KILL THEM.

If you come across any Red Squirrels give them a martini and massage. WE ARE UNDER STRESS, comrades.

My friends. I thank you all for your support, equally so.
Do svidaniya!

Friday nights never used to be like this remember (key words stayin in and ovaltine)
Then Rosemary brings in her rodeo spinnin greys and all of a sudden we's gettin a message from a communist red sqirrel trying to hipnotise us with Kill Kill Kill the Greys
I dont know about you, but I'm deepley suspiciuos of Vlad our new member, just where did he do his swedish massage course ? what about his towling technique? who drives him to home visits? there's too many things that don't add up.
I'm getting real twitchy about all this!

i'm with you...very suspicious of Vlad...he comes on here with only ONE modality...lives in Plano, TX (the town next door to me) and immediately joins the Rowdy group. stalker??? :)

Greeting comrades,
Stephen, Ovaltine tastes much better if it is made with the BLOOD OF A GREY SQUIRREL. Please try it (some cinnamon helps also).
Lisa, I understand your reservations, and I extend my paw in friendship and you are correct, I DO STALK, but I ONLY STALK GREY SQUIRRELS and then I KILL THEM.
I wish you all a successful weekend of impaling and I thank you all for your support, equally so.

Do svidaniya!
