I could be wrong, but I think @Amsterdam_Neil_D 's odd comment is in reference to 7 being an odd number. Regarding the painting @Seat68 posted, not sure. But the bloke holding the leather jacket looks like someone I haven't heard of. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesterday morning at 7AM, they banged on my door asking me to move my car. I did, and then it got towed from a usually safe spot. $110 to get my car, and I was late for work. **** words removed AND clearings in the woods AND rocket polishers Not having much luck with those rough arse roofers are you.

bickster Posted June 24, 2017 Moderator Share Posted June 24, 2017 7 hours ago, a m ole said: its only effectively double after that first pint and only if you drink at a rate of one pint per hour. makes more sense to calculate the units drank, minus one for each hour drinking. say you drink 5 pints of weak lager over 2 hours. that's 10 units drank, minus the 2 processed meaning 8 still left in the body. 5 pints of strong lager over two hours is 15 units drank, minus the two leaving 13 in the body. 8 is 61% of 13, close to the difference between a 4% lager and 6% lager at 66%. At a higher rate of drinking the breakdown of alcohol becomes less significant, and at a lower rate more significant - but then at a lower rate the likelihood of being drunk is much reduced. This is slightly incorrect, you need to add one unit per calculation due to the hour it takes for the alcohol to be assimilated into the body Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We drink less than a lot of countries on a per capita basis. It's just when we drink its done in a binge way! Usually confined to one night a week.

magnkarl Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 So I woke up this morning, put the coffee on, banged some toast in the toaster, opened the back door to the garden, stepped out and instantly stepped into a turd from a bleedin cat. Is there anything worse than cat shit? Dog shit doesn't have anything on that. I scooped the cat shit up with my trusty garden trowel and flung it at the window of the guy next to me who has 8 cats. Later he came around and asked why there's cat shit on his window, I politely told him to install some sort of cat toilet. I then went to homebase, bought 100 litres of play sand and dumped it just outside his fence, two meters from their outside seating area. I'm hoping it'll stink nicely for them so they see the extent of shit we have to deal with in our flowerbeds, vegetable garden, flower pots, my grandkid's sandbox etc. I like cats but this is too much. I need some sort of cat deterrent because this is getting out of hand. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get yourself an animal that eats cats like an alligator, mongoose or a t-rex and let it live in your garden. That'll learn 'em.

Maybe I should invest in one of those motion sensor sprinkler systems? That'll teach em. Edited June 24, 2017 by magnkarl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need some sort of cat deterrent because this is getting out of hand. This could be totally wrong but my grandad used half fill a litre Pepsi bottle with water and leave them round the perimeter of his garden to deter cats. Something about them not liking their reflection or something but he was adamant it worked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel ur pain though. Cat shit is awful especially when you accidentally run the lawn mower over it. Smug words removed. Cats, not lawn mowers ! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboyangel Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 We have two sets of new neighbours, each with cats. Our garden has become their dumping ground and at night they loudly fight each other. i don't like cats at the best of times but now I really despise them. have scattered bonemeal around the flower beds and vegetable patch and at the front of the house (supposed to put them off as they don't like the smell) also have the super soaker at the ready to dispense liquid justice if I see any of the vermin come into the garden.

bickster Posted June 24, 2017 Moderator Share Posted June 24, 2017 Urinate around the border of your garden Seriously, human urine is a cat repellent Make sure you do it when the neighbours are watching to increase neighbour annoyance And if you think I'm, joking, google it 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
