Dirty garages and frogs!!!!

[kflute]

I know this sounds random but................

My boyfriend bought a house back in January and we've been doing it all up. We've finally got the inside looking good, so we're tackling the gardena dn the garage. The previous owners left the garage in a hideous state. It's knee high in rubbish, including bags of dirty napppies, kitchen rubbih, clothes etc. It really is disgusting. I can't believe someone could get it like that in the first place let alone leave it like that. She was a cleaner as well!!!!!!

James is in Germany at the minute watching the football, so I thought I'd try and clear out the garage as a surprise for when he gets back. Maybe not the most romantic of surprises but it's a job he's been trying to ignore for ages!!!!

However, in all the stuff, I've found 6 frogs!!!! Or maybe their toads? I don't know what the difference is. 3 or 4 of them are quite big!!! What do I do with them!!!! I'm intending to get it all cleaned out and then bleached as there's obviously been lots of mice in their too. I don't want to kill the frogs with the bleach!! Will they just dissapear on their own as I wreck their little horrible home or should I do something with them? I don't fancy touching them really!!!!!

I don't suppose many of us would know what to do. My guess is that they will wander off of their own accord if you remove their comfy home.

How about a quick call to the RSPCA. Not only will they be able to give you some good advice, they might even send someone out to remove them - you can hope.

Good luck with that garage. I hope your boyfriend appreciates you properly. ;D

I text him and told what I was doing and he sent back I LOVE YOU!!!! I think the capital letters shows that he's happy!! Or it could have something to do with the beer and football!!!

I went and did some more on the garage today........about 3/4 done now!! I only spotted two frogs today!! Maybe the others were off finding a new home? I'm slightly worried though that they're goign to find the pond in his garden as their new home...............I'm destroying that tomorrow afternoon!!!!! ooops!

[princessmoose]

You're doing what tomorrow afternoon?!!? You should be in the pub watching the England match, like me!!!!!

[kflute]

But that means getting in?briated and I'm trying not to!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will have it on the tele though!!!

[princessmoose]

Hmm.. true! As long as you're watching it!!

I'm supposed to be sailing, but it looks like it will be cancelled. Up at 7am just for it to be cancelled gah! I don't care whether we sail or not...as long as I am back and in a pub by 2pm!!!!

[kflute]

But what about my homeless frogs!!!!!!!!!

[princessmoose]

They can wait for a few hours!

[kflute]

maybe if I give them some beer, they'll forget their home was ever in the garage or pond and be happy to toddle off somewhere else!

[princessmoose]

Exactly! Do that, and get to that darn pub for the match!

Best quote I ever read about football was, "It is played by prima donnas and watched by yobs."

Bet you never thought of yourself as a yobbo, did you Nat ;D

As opposed to rugby which is played by yobs but watched by prima donnas? ;D
