Ah, thanks for this, Sacha! Sultanas, eh? We used to feed them corn
but it didn't help when I came to take aim - during the pheasant season,
of course! Now, if sultanas make them "go quite dipsy", then sultanas
could be the aid I clearly need!

Hee, hee, hee!

If you have dogs, be careful when 'chucking out' sultanas, because grapes,
raisins and sultanas are toxic to dogs (but not to squirrels).
