Secondly, just as even if you didn't like football you could still enjoy and appreciate an occasion like the Hibs-Sevco final on a cultural and entertainment level

 

You need to be immersed in Scottish football to fully appreciate the absolute joy of the 2016 Scottish Cup final

Noticed a squirrel was visiting our back yard a month or so back, so I started scattering nuts out in case they were hungry. Been doing it every few days since then and, while I haven't seen much in the way of squirrel action, the nuts have always disappeared. I figured the wee bugger was visiting while I was out at work, and made himself scarce by the time I got home.

Like King Wenceslas, I looked out the kitchen window over Christmas, and SQUIRRELS! SQUIRRELS EVERYWHERE! SQUIRRELMAGEDDON! I now have a horde of the wee fuckers living in the trees out the back, crawling around all over the roughcasting and doing mental backflips and shit off the roof. I've even been doing the dishes and found one of them outside the kitchen window watching me. I cannot describe how pleasing it is to see them.

Greys?

What’s the script with feeding grey squirrels, Yes or no? I’ve a few living in the tree right outside my living room window.

Would you feed rats?

Seems to be some crossbreed. One's about 50/50 with big red stripes, and another has a grey body and red head. Very odd, like he had another squirrel's head transplanted onto his body.

If they get into your hoose, Dave, you’re in trouble. Notorious to get the wee fuckers out again.

We have a single grey that visits the front tree. 

I have cats and a dug, so they'd better think twice. Also, I've eaten squirrel before, and it was quite tasty.

I'll get the spare room sorted in case this one drops by, however...

Sounds like a collectors' item.

Get it stuffed and put it on ebay

It's not a crossbreed, they can't cross. Some of them just are a bit reddish. If you're nowhere near red habitat I think feeding greys is OK tbh.

Dirty racist squirrel b*****ds.

That's it; no more nuts.

Dont think they cross breed. Where do you live?

Aye, so Mixu says.

I'm awaiting the inevitable joke about Alloa and inter-breeding  :rolleyes:

Edit: I'll see if I can get pictures tomorrow. Tried a few days ago, but they didn't turn out too well.
