Ann of GG, a weta is a type of grasshopper. There are several varieties, the most common around here is about 2 inches long with hind legs that have saw teeth on them. They throw the hind legs up as a warning if they feel threatened. They are ugly looking things (but dont tell Ruud Kleinpaste, the bugman, that I said so).

Marion, does your bunny roll in all sorts of smelly things?

Huia.

Good Evening All,
Today started off wet but ended up a nice afternoon.
I used to look at the Cheviots from a different angle to you Ian (at least I think I did) and it's a beautiful part of the world.
Mind you I wouldn't come back - I love the warm weather too much.

Beautiful here in sunny Hampshire :o)
I have all the windows open so the gentle (?) roar of the M3 is drowning out the radio.
I'm off sick today - bad reaction to some new pills the doc has given me, that I started taking on Saturday, but I feel slightly better than I did yesterday (not thrown up yet! :o). I'll give it another day before going back and refusing to take them!!

Mind you, on a day like today I'd much rather be off work with aching muscles and chronic nausea than at work!!

Oh, Ian. Dont dogs love to roll in the smelliest thing they can find. The number of times we had to bath our dog.......(who is now no more). At least he was never a house dog. And the cats dont seem to roll in things, thank goodness. They just bring mice inside, sometimes still alive. Not that I am scared of mice, but prefer not to have live ones running around. What I really dont like is when OH brings firewood in and I later find a weta or centipede running around.
Huia.
