@Time40

I really like the idea of a slug beauty contest. The novelty of it. Imagine the look on their faces.

SapphireSeptember · 04/01/2021 22:33

Sprouts, beetroot and liver.
Rhubarb.
The smell of diesel from a train going past (and diesel trains in general.)
I also love steam and electric trains and train spotting. Grin Trains mean adventure to me!

@Time40 oh that's a shame. Our nocturnal visitors are the fat brown ones.

You only see them if you come down to the kitchen in between 1am-6am. Luckily they restrict themselves to one corner, not near any food, but it's a bit bleurgh Confused

Weak coffee. Bounty bars.

CoolCatTaco · 04/01/2021 22:35

I love a Bounty too! And salad cream on sandwiches.

You can fence off a little area, if you know whereabouts they come in. So that they can come in to get warm, but you don't end up wearing one as a sort of ice skate by accident.

Smoking
Jeremy Corbyn

BarelyFunctioning · 04/01/2021 22:52
