SQUIRRELS SHOWING THE WAY!

Jim — Tue, 03 Jan 2012 16:36:14 +0000

Happy New Year, I trust that you had a good break, that Santa brought you all you wished for and you are now champing at the bit, ready to face another year.

In the meantime I thought I would share a little of what I observed over Christmas…..

A couple of months ago we noticed that a squirrel had started visiting our garden, primarily to steal the nuts from the bird food we leave out. Being soft, the squirrel soon had his own dispenser full of nuts and had been christened ‘KP’.

Realising he was welcome he invited his mates round and soon we had to ration the refills of his nut dispenser to twice weekly for fear KP and his friends would take the piss. Before you ask, yes we did name his mates; Secret, Tufty, Junior and Chris*.

They were welcome visitors and gradually they started burying food all over the garden, leaving tiny holes in the lawn, the beds, in flower pots and, well, pretty much all over. Because they are far more entertaining to watch than anything on TV, we didn’t mind.

Then, while watching them during the Christmas break we noticed that every day they visited not just to see if we had left more food out but to check on their stores, scurrying from tiny hole to tiny hole to make sure the store was secure.

Why am I telling you all this?

Well it struck me that squirrels are far better at checking their nuts regularly than us humans – perhaps we should all learn a lesson from KP and his mates.

Be a squirrel – check your nuts on a regular basis!

And Remember – Talk Bollox, Save Lives!

*In case you wondered (or even care) Chris is named after Chris Evans because he has ginger ears.

LEGENDS TALKING BOLLOX! – AN UPDATE

Jim — Wed, 13 Jul 2011 11:04:47 +0000

As you will be aware, the launch of Legends Talking Bollox! was put back until 2012 when one of our sponsors withdrew only weeks prior to our scheduled launch in May this year.

We are currently in the process of securing new partners to work with on the project and hope to be in a position to make further anouncements in the coming months.

In the meantime, remember – Talking Bollox Saves Lives!
