I think I got fooled by breakfast tv who were showing a huge rat and saying it could detect landmines. I wasn't even aware what day it was until the other half pointed it out to me. Apparently these rats detect the explosive by smell then sit on the mines and scratch themselves to show there's a mine there.... I don't normally watch breakfast tv, honest.... ------------- the same, but different... |

| I heard on Chris Moyles that someone texted their boyfriend that they thought he was cheating on her, and he phoned her back in tears that he was trying to find a way of telling her, whoops! |

Villan, don't lie, it took you about an hour to get... (it was "snowing" in North London, by the way) We told one of our friends that her car had been clamped... never seen anyone move so fast! Also they swapped the signs on the doors round - so we all tried to "push" instead of "pull". Simple but effective. ------------- MIRROR 64799 "Dolphin" The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist hopes it will change; the realist adjusts the sail |

[/QUOTE] What's clever about sitting on top of a landmine, scratching yourself? Edit; Sorry Winging it, lost your name in my editing. |
