Damn Birds!!
« on: 06 June 2008, 16:11:33 »

Why is it...

You clean your car, do a good job, and then decide to Polish it (as its never been done)...

Then while you stand back to admire it once finished, a bird goes and does one gigantic meaty SHIT on the bonnet and windscreen...

I've got the same problem. One tinker, I swear, has a cork rammed up there until the day I decide to wash my car and then Blam!

I remember working in Carlisle, it was a hot day and I was walking back to my digs, when a Seagull swooped down and aimed a load at me. If I hadn't taken evasive action it would have been a perfect shot, as it turn out it went down my arm. If only I had a gun >:(

You think they would want to 'perch' somewhere and have a bit of a clear out. But no, they have to do it on the move! The swines just know that if they were on the ground they would get what for!!

Bread + Bicarbonate of soda :y

If they stick around long enough you can watch them blow up.






And that bit of advice from an albatross :-/

Reminds me of something a few years ago when I made a big mistake. I had been moving some furniture using a roof rack on a Sierra I used to own. It was a very icy morning and I felt sorry for the local bird population, so I got a full loaf of bread and broke it up and threw it out for our feathered friends. About ten minutes later I looked out of the window only to see about eighty Starlings using the roof rack as a communal perch and crapping all over my car roof :o :o :o thats gratitude for you >:(
