That's delightful, Dave; I bet the family members on shore really enjoy those videos.
thanks, Bill

Unbelievable I know, but nasty things happen to people with good job who live in nice homes in nice areas. Or is the job and house value actually completely irrelevant?
In other unexpected news, if you leave you door open, things can wander in. If you also smear tasty stuff on your sleeping children they might get a good licking too.
"Ms Williams chased the fox around the house for 90 minutes" - I'd have given up after at most 5, noway could I run around my house for a hour and a half, but then I've got a much smaller house.
Eventually she locked it in a spare wing room, "It had messed all over the room. It was revolting." - what a disgusting creature, shitting in the room it had been locked in. Why it behaved like some sort of wild animal.
It was obviously a hell of a chase, no wonder she paused for breath now and then, and to take lots of pictures of it.

Right. You see a fox with its teeth precariously close to your young daughter's throat, so what do you do?
Jump up and down and frighten it.
Good move.
Some people seem to have trouble telling the difference between a young daughter and a mother-in-law.

I know the difference between my morther-in-law and a wolf. It's the honesty and predictability of the wolf.

Oh, my mother-in-law's predictable enough.

We have a lot of foxes around here. They are lovely except when they sh*t all over the garden or eat the crap out of the food bin. Normally the former follows the later.

Quite a few where I live too. One ran across the path in front of us when I was walking the dog the other evening.
Talking of exotic animal sh*t, there is a baby skunk on the loose in the village I live in. We have been asked to keep an eye, and a nose, out for it's sh*t which is highly pungent and distinctive.

I just went outside to get some apples, and you'll never guess what I found on the path across the lawn? A lovely fox's Richard.

Quite a few foxes around here too, but the main problem here a wild boars crossing streets at night time.. And there was also a bear walking around, but it was shut down...
I once did touch a fox on the motorway.. Result: fox dead, car made a 360° turn and had no damage (good there was no traffic..)

That's no problem. Just see Getafix for a potion, then go out and get tomorrow's lunch.

I've read 'em in English, Italian, and Dutch, and they're just as funny in each language, although many of the jokes are different -- brilliant translation work.

I used to love 'em in English, and tried reading one in the original French with the help of a French - English dictionary. Gave up on the first page after several hours of desperate head scratching. And then found out the the kid on the first page had a lisp...

Be glad you don't have a dog: they just looooove rolling over in foxx dooings, and then you have to jet wash the dog to get rid of the smell...
We have 'em round here, and they're mostly pretty good. There is enough prey for 'em that they don't raid the bins.

I had dogs as a lad and we knew, we knew very well, when they'd found a foxy gift.

My parents have a Fox Terrier, and a regular night time visitor who seems to delight in tormenting aforementioned Fox Terrier.
Every now and again though he gets his chance, but old Reynard is too quick for him.

You would have thought they could afford to hire one of the under-class to clean up the place, it looks a sh*t-hole, shame it must be the recession.

Maybe some folks should get together and go hunting, cut down on the fox population.
I don't know if anyone has ever tried it...those little guys are fast and sneaky. It might take more than just walking around with a gun. Maybe some dogs or something. I don't know. But it might work.

You would think a 1.5 million dollar house would have screen doors? Or are those standard only on the 2 million dollar version?
Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.

Back to work after a 3 weeks holliday...
Saw my inbox this morning and I got some ca. 2'000 unread items. The good thing it was that those where error messages from apps I didn't write, but still a pain to manually delete them all.
Did I miss something here in the mean time, while I was on the sunny Spanish beach??

Yeah it was all change while you were gone.
There were some CCC's, there were some MQOTD's, One of Nagy's kids had choir practice, somebody spammed the lounge with some interesting streaming posts and MM came on and swore about Tennis.

I thought I only clarified something Nish posted as no one understood what he said ans somehow I knew what he was on about.
