Moan of the week
 
Window cleaner came last week.
Today there was a snail halfway up my kitchen window!
There were also 2 on the window of the bus this morning!
Where do they think they are going!

Now that's odd Pam because we had a snail halfway up one of the patio doors
a few days ago. NEVER seen that before. Is there a new breed of 'Glass
Climbing Snails'?

They are exploring the universe but it may take them a long time, just

LOL! I wish I could find a way to get them all beamed up at once. They
could fight the slugons forever .. once they'd overcome that cloaking
device.

Mike,

I have that occurance on a regular basis along with slugs, woodlice and
earwigs - they all make for the old Elizabeth Montana clematis that covers
the front of the house to have a bloody good feed on it.

I'm quite often out there at night, just after a rainfall, killing the damn
things as they climb up the wall and glass.

We have them climbing the uprights of the veranda
http://www.myalbum.co.uk/Album=MUKLG34Q and even hang on under the bird
box, but never had them climb up the glass.

Those cling-ons really cling on though. You'll need a pan-galactic gargle
blaster to shift 'em...

.... not before shifting to another sci-fi series! If we can do that, I
think I'll get the Daleks to ex-ter-min-ate them :~)). Surely, there's
an intergalactic monster somewhere that thinks gastropods are yummy.

Hedgehogs. Or thrushes.

Well, they are between some galaxies, even though they don't _travel_
between them.

Now, about the rain... last night my pond went up a foot. It's a shame
it was only 8 inches below the banks :( and we're on top of a hill!
