For example, I’ve got a gang of squirrels that come in my garden, take the nuts from the bird feeders and then leave little post it notes behind saying things like ‘This one needs toping up, lmfao!’ and ‘Cashew number 4 please!’ Always signed off with ‘All the best, Chris and the Bushy Tail Crew’ I will not rest till this group of reprobates are defeated, or at the very least till they have apologised and bring my nuts back.

So, what battle are you currently fighting ?

Cashew made me chuckle.

I’m not fighting any battles currently.

I might pick a fight with something or someone tomorrow and report back.

Always best to be a lover not a fighter, also always best not to be informed, once you’re informed that’s when the problems start.

"Squirrels are little bastards really "

That’s cause they’re always on a dare, whenever you see one squirrel up to no good there’s another 4 up a tree egging him on.

There are 3 squirrels that run across the top of my garden fence daily, it’s quite a long run. They all collide in the tree at the end and have a squabble and bit of a ruck then they all disappear off in different directions. Had I of been at work as normal I would of missed it!

Should I put nuts out or not?

They constantly make a noise till stupid o'clock keeping me awake, kids running about, banging, jumping all over.

I've explained I need my sleep for my early morning blood tests.

We've talked about it, I've put a letter through the door, I've banged on the ceiling, shouted and all sorts.

Now I've given up and I'm playing them at their own game.

I'm making as much noise as I can at 7am to wake those fukkas up and play them at their own game.

I always wondered why certain bird feeders were advertised as “squirrel proof”. Now I know why, those mouthy rascals!

You will never beat a cat, and you just have one!

I'm currently fighting a battle of wills against my 6 Maine Coons who are sitting in front of me, almost in a semi-circle, trying to exert their cat-powers of mind control over me to give them food. I tried them on a new cat food this evening and they weren't impressed. Two have fallen asleep where they sit, but the other 4 are keeping up the vigil. It's getting very hot and uncomfortable in here and I'm a little bit frightened

You could do, or leave a mini drum set, bass and guitar and see if they form a dub funk trio.

Good thinking, that way it creates mystery and is also slightly annoying for your Facebook friends.
