The Slugs are taking over!
See! See! It isn’t just me moaning (Mistress) or being crap (Dad), the fekking Undead Slug Army foretold in the Bible* has risen and is eating out food as they are too small to reach out brains.
15 billion! That must just be in my bloody garden 
Me & Jac are starting an Army. There will be uniforms, weapons and cake for all members – who’s with me? Just make sure that no one tells that nice Mr Cameron. He needs a new campaign and “Hug A Slug” would only make our job harder if PETA got involved.

* Maybe. I haven’t read the damn thing. It waffles on about a whole heap’o'crap, so Zombie Slugs are bound to be in there. Probably in a letter to the Romans** that read “Sweet Baby Jesu! The Slugs just ate the 10th Legion!”
** All of ‘em? Think of the postage!

Despite the rain. Despite the lack of sun. Despite the bastard slugs. Despite over-zealous watering by me when it was a wee plantling, my tomato plant bears fruit. Oh blessed be.

Jesus! I couldn’t eat this bugger! It’s all I could do not to call the local priest in and have it exorcised before driving a stake through its twisted heart!

… tastes great when:
a) The mistress makes it, and
b) You use your own leeks and spuds.
Oh yes.

Hello all… Sigh… I know it’s been a while and I’m sorry, but a few real life issues have kept me away (work, health, the usual) but I’ve also just not felt… well, inspired to write a post.
The garden has either been a flooded, muddy pit of despair or a source of great frustration and distress due to the slugs eating everything I’ve planted out. I have virtually nothing of the fourth planting left – although the seedlings I gave away to others are all doing wonderfully. Great.
What else? Well, it’s true – I have been playing Second Life quite a lot. Well, it’s been too bloody wet to garden and, to be quite honest, it’s bloody good fun! But that’s not all I’ve been doing. Work has been mental – UK Gov and the EC have more spats than a couple on the verge of divorce and/or angry sex and we have to pander to their needs. I find myself tired at the moment. Happy, very happy, but tired.
I’ll post more often, I promise. In the meantime, anyone who is interested in my SL life may want to read my (gasp) other blog. I’m not posting the address here as I want some level of seperation. If you want to read, you’ll find a way of letting me know 
p.s. This is great, but not safe for work due to swearing.
p.p.s. This is just bloody funny.
