Are thay the birds that also like pulling out windscreen rubber ?Our Keas (alpine Parrots) are cheaky chappies.
On Saturday I drove up to Arthurs Pass to meet a campervan that needed some parts replaced on the heater. So took Mrs & Miss Grumpy and the mutt along for the ride up into the mountains.
While I sorted the camper, they walked into the village for a hot chocolate at the cafe - was a gorgeous day, but fookin cold up there. While Miss Grumpy was in buying the hot drinks Mrs Grumpy snapped this pic of a Kea sitting on the chairs.
Miss G came out and puts the hot chocolates down, as she does the Kea, quick as a flash, jumps over 2 tables, grabbed the packet of crisps she'd also bought and was away with it

Yeah, that’s a few of his Range Rovers queuing up for ballast. The others are currently being valeted by his squadrons of willing sex slaves while he counts his vast assets. He also has spare Discoverys which he uses for stashing works of art and other items he judges to be worthless.That must be Bob going to get more gravel
Yeh, they'll nick and/or destroy anything.Are thay the birds that also like pulling out windscreen rubber ?
Yeh, they'll nick and/or destroy anything.
One ripped open the spare tyre cover on the back of my Freelander 1 day.
They'll nick tea towel or clothes hanging up to dry at huts, or the shoe laces out of boots.
They love it, can't help themselves. Usually soft stuff, but not always...
... I forgot to say.
1st thing this morning I came down and opened the kitchen door to an overpowering stench of cat-poo.
Yup, Scratchy again. Now I really don't need all this as a start to my day and so her face fell into her own poop.
I got it all cleaned up from the floor turned round and one of the other cats (Alan) was asking for food.
I put food out for him and went to put away the things on the drainer.
While I was doing that I heard an unwelcome sound.....Having wolfed down all the food, he then threw it all straight back up over the kitchen floor.
More clean up.
I think I will go back to bed now and try again tomorrow.
I remember reading about Napoleon & Josephine. Apparently while on campaign he would send a runner back to her saying (typically) “Will be home in a fortnight. Do not wash.”Afternoon folks .
Been a bit of a grumpy day mostly drizzle. Lots of rain and wind overnight.
But on the up side its a non stinky body house today.
Already colleting walnuts that have fallen and the wind last night has given more. So I guess we will see the older villagers filling their pockets/pinnies as they walk past.

Was that so they both smelt the same I guess .I remember reading about Napoleon & Josephine. Apparently while on campaign he would send a runner back to her saying (typically) “Will be home in a fortnight. Do not wash.”
So he did. and I couldn't help thinking he looked even older than his years. Higgins I mean!Iggins lost 10-5

Hard lesson, well learned.I had a couple of lads this morning starting to rip out the kitchen on the ship, a nice fridge thats had rotten food in it for about
2 years.....I said what ever you do do not open the fridge door & what was the first thing the lad done
Then all the juices were running out........
They came out barfing
You only smell for the first week then your body compensates at the end of the year you couldn't care lessWas that so they both smelt the same I guess .
Also we now have a whole bunch of clean mugs, plates and eating irons (knifes & forks).
No they were not in the shower with us, we used the dishwasher
