| Haven't seen a blackbird
or a sparrow for years. Then do something about it. Get some wild bird
seed from Pet's Beauty Salon on Beech Road. I did, and now the garden is
full of squirrels. About 38 pence a kilo.
It must be bad in the countryside
when the wildlife has crept upon the city. Foxes seen blatantly walking
down Claude Road the other night. Friends have seen them lurking behind
the shops on the north side of Beech Road. I don't hear anybody saying
let's organise a 'South Chorlton Hunt'. Where we can all rub shoulders
with postmen, allotment holders and solicitors. That's what they do when
hunting - the various classes rub shoulders. Must be a euphemism for trampling
over other people's land and killing critters. The sort of activity you'd
go to court for if it wasn't in the countryside. |
