    Yeah we don’t use our for rabbit hunting personally, they’re just house pets, but we’ve had them from babies so they know full well they’ll get a hell of a telling off if they bite, we have found strangulation or drowning the only way to get them if they latch down, which they did a couple of times when we first got them, but they’ve both turned really docile now 🙂 and here’s a photo we took yesterday introducing the new baby [ATTACH=CONFIG]221157[/ATTACH] and as for the smell, yeah that only happens if you don’t clean them out enough, I’m sure if you were left to roll around in your …leavings… for a week you wouldn’t smell too great …. ;]

    When my Grandfather had a problem with his car the place he bought it from very much gave him the “silly old man doesn’t know what he’s talking about” attitude, until he made it apparent to them that he used to be an University Lecturer on Engineering and very much knew what he was talking about … they very quickly sorted the issue.

    I love birds 🙂 there used to be a pair of peregrine falcons living on the chimney of the British Engineerium opposite my parents =] One thing I notcied, is that years ago there used ot be tons and tons of starlings in my parents’ garden and surrounding gardens… now there are none. loads of blue **** & finches though, occasional jay & spotted woodpecker … and a racing pigeon stayed over night … turns out it was from Liverpool I think…. Or somewhere near there, but had been released in the south of France and evidently got lost/ tired in Brighton on it’s way home

    A lot of my computer nerd friends strongly advise staying away from hotmail, apparently it’s full of loop holes for hackers to get in to, Gmail is much safer. I converted several years ago

    Currently in our CD player are:

    Tenacious D , Rachel Tucker. & Kerry Ellis, the last 2 names will probably only be recognisable to musical theatre fans… particularly fans of the musical ‘Wicked’ of which I am a little obsessed…

    Please try to remember the crews are giving up their time to operate the aircraft at shows

    you make it sound like flying a Lancaster in your spare time is a burden… I certainly wouldn’t mind the task
