NO Crocks there RG, This is at the Greenough river mouth just south of Geraldton :ok:

robbiegal · April 03, 2016, 07:18:45 PM

so is WA free of crocs but loaded with sharks?

I spent too much time up north QLD & the gulf, where sleeping that close beside water would be at your own peril

trout · April 03, 2016, 07:29:28 PM

No Crocks this far south RG, I recon the Sharks here would chew them to pieces

It's Nice to know I am still needed

No but I imagine the P traps and sumps would be cleaned out at a regular basis at the camp.

I am so p****d off!!! Some dirty rotten thieving sack of s**t has stolen my lovely 'Flap Jack' pot plant from my front garden. They actually had to come about 15 feet inside my yard to swipe it. :ireful: :Alvarin_33: :aggressive:

A handful of small carnations and dianthus flowers were plucked and chucked on the footpath about 30 feet away the same night.

A next door neighbour had an orchid plant stolen from his front garden about 6 months ago. So it looks like the thieving a***hole is probably a local.

Sorry to hear that Nevol.

Karma will get them.

robbiegal · April 06, 2016, 05:54:15 PM

buggar!!!
I have just a few pot plants on the front porch and touch wood all remain
we have half expected the 5 foot tall cactus to get nicked as it is the one that you can extract that mescalin stuff from

JeffH · April 06, 2016, 06:06:33 PM

There are some ratbags around. No consolation to you though.
I hope it is not new immigrants half inching plants that remind them of where they came from (can't say any more at risk of PC criticism!).

Any suspicions you have Nancy, keep to yourself -you don't want to risk being blamed for casting nasturtiums. (Over to you Uni.)

sounds like hooligans of sorts to me
all neighbourhoods get episodes like this

years ago we had a late night bunch of kids smashing letterboxes across two streets
they smashed every letter box on the streets

ours is one of the few originals remaining - being cement pebbles they only managed to smash the opening and actually did us a favour - the letters are much easier to get out and I can see the huntsmans when they move in!

most of the neighbours now have these big cement blockie letterboxes now

Yes Jeff they should go back to days of old and they'd put the daft o'dill in stocks and perhaps let Nevol give him a going over with a red hot poker. That would make him regret the daisy did bad deeds. Sounds violet I know, but it might make him cry that's ya mum to the gathered crowd. (Oh dear, poor as it is, I had to take the challenge).
