Nothing against them but they are ganging up and clearing all the smaller birds off our feeder and just decimating it in minutes.

Not so bad other than they don't seem to eat much, just leave the nuts etc on the floor then bugger off.

That's all. Just having a little moan

I've seen them quite brazenly walk into Greggs when there aren't any pigeons around to mug

Bastards over here feed the little shits. It rains poop on a regular basis

I got mugged by one coming out of the work canteen one day. The little shithead tried to take a macaroon out of my hand. I had no idea what was happening, for a split second I was throwing punches everywhere

They have been doing that for years, I remember seeing one of them pick up a sparrow in its beak and throw it away from the food.

Moaning Monday has a bit of a ring to it right enough.

Well while we're having a moan there's no frickin heating in my office!

But what's the differentiator between a moan and a rant?

I think "someone" needs to append the T's and C's......

Think a rant is more like turning purple and steam coming out of the ears

They do have a right cocky strut so they do.

It's like they all think they're Marlon Brando or something.

One here can mimic the landline phone. I've unplugged it during the daytime as I got fed up with false rings.

Pfffft never around when needed.

That's neither a moan or a rant, merely an observation.

Titz Towers, North Notts

Flies into the thread, announces from upon her magic flying carpet that a moaning is welcome during sex, but ranting isn't and therein lies the difference and then speeds off before any starlings take roost on the upholstery.

I might get you to adjudicate on some of Thursday's contributions.....

As always, the Fora are indebted to you.

I like this idea.

Moaning Monday. Tetchy Tuesday. Wanky Wednesday. Rant Thursday. TFI Friday. Sex Saturday. Shagging Sunday.
