Westley: No, no. We have already succeeded. I mean, what are the three terrors of the Fire Swamp? One, the flame spurt - no problem. There's a popping sound preceding each; we can avoid that. Two, the lightning sand, which you were clever enough to discover what that looks like, so in the future we can avoid that too.
Buttercup: Westley, what about the R.O.U.S.'s?
Westley: Rodents Of Unusual Size? I don't think they exist.

"At night you can hear them chasing each other in the loft. They sound like drag racing cars as they screech across the rafters"



"Laura Drake, of the Mammal Society, speculated it could be a coypu - a South American rodent often referred to as a "giant rat".

Thank the lord for mammal experts...

I bet the shooter doesn't usually wear that tie.

Uhura,

Look at their photos. They can't even wash. or iron. Or smile.

Fkin bradford, they should just burn it down, it'd be for the greater good.
Agreed.

Which was the point I was hoping to make, the people in the houses had taken some rats to the council offices and dumped them on someones desk. Always another persons fault/problem.

"I shouldn't have this, what are YOU going to do about it" - attitude with these people.

The problem wouldn't be as bad if the fking scum sorted their own gardens, made their house secure, emptied bins etc etc.

Almost feel sorry for the rats.......

I'm being content-filtered here. Someone post up the picture in question, there's a good egg.

A quick google said they got rid of any coypus in the UK in 1987. Would someone have kept them as pets?

I like the childishness of it.

hehe

Anyway, back to Bradford - Can we not just shoot the locals and give the rats free reign, after all, that would be fairer and the place would probably look better after a while.

Chupacabara? A mythical beast.



Capybara? Bit like a bigger, taller guinea pig without a tail so, no.
