        Cats!!!

        Everything else I'm allowed to snuff out anyway, but when someone's precious tiddles digs up my borders and scatters my seedlings all over, then dumps all over the raised beds, it's all "Oh, they're semi-wild you know, we can't be held responsible" and "He never does it in my garden." Yes, well, that's because he's doing it in mine and if he's semi flipping wild he should only be classed as a semi-pet, that is, a pet in your garden and able to be legally shot, poisoned or generally murdered to death by some horrible, imaginative means in mine!

        Thank you, rant over

                Wasps probably have a place in the food chain somewhere, but why do they always home in on me and sting me????????? Get rid of the b******s

                  Nope, I'll pass on this one! There's enough animals being forced into extinction each year without me adding another one to the list!

                    You wipe out one pest, then you've altered the balance and you don't know what may fill the void.
                    Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants.

                          If we've got free licence can we include ineffective, incompetent NHS Managers regardless of background or shall we just ship them off to some remote unpopulated island with all the other pests we've "rid" the world of and leave them all to it for 10 years.

                          Hmmm could be an interesting scientific experiment but wouldn't pass any ethics committee. (Damn!)

                            Why not include the ethics committee???
