Wild Fishcakes Roaming The New Forest.

AIBU in wishing genetically modified food and animals would end up being more like the type of thing that happens in cartoons?

I want to go to the New Forest during fishcake season with a fishcake net and hunt the little breadcrumbed critters that run around there.
I want real haggis re-introduced back onto Scottish hillsides.
I want Clangers.
I want whales with lasers for eyes so they can sink whaling ships.
I want giant talking turtles to fight crime.

Is that too much to ask?

We could use science to find out what you really do get if you cross a sheep with a kangaroo.

They're wasting their time seeing how many ears they can get on a mouse. They all seem to have pretty big ears to start with.

Can we discuss the giant talking turtles to fight crime? That would be good. Even better, they could be named after Renaissance artists!

Little burritos singing the Mexican hat dance whilst swigging back Sol beer.

Micro Mammoths.

TunipTheVegemal · 10/10/2012 20:23

Not only micromammoths (which would be ace btw), you could have little horses for your dd's Barbies to ride round on.

I'm thinking the turtles could be Banksy, Harris, Jacko from Brush Strokes and a half turtle called Hirst.

Micro animals would be good. You could have a whole zoo you could keep in a bucket.

or indeed, a bucket full of dinosaurs.

I want a pet unicorn.

There's a small population of wild tofu near us. Our cats like to chase them but are utterly confused when they catch them.

Whenever I go to the New Forest I am disappointed by the fact that the ponies are boring matte brown colours and don't come in pastels with sparkly manes and tails.
But not for much longer Smile

You mean that there are no haggis in the wild anymore? Thats terrible!

HoneyDragon · 10/10/2012 20:33

I would also have a small blue bear who had a tendency to behave badly, as a flat mate.

'Mummy pleeeease can I have a unicorn, pleeeeease can I have a unicorn, all my friends have got one, you're the worst mummy in the world, pleeeease?'
'Well all right then dd, but only one of the little ones. I know Emily has got one of the horse-sized ones with wings and she goes to flying lessons but she lives on a farm....'

Kippers. They're very sleepy.
