    He was turning to move away from the burn and completely ignored me even though I spoke to him. :biggrin: They are docile animals apparently.

        I was reading up on them earlier Strongy. Their meat is very low in cholesterol. A shame as I can't eat beef! :doh::)

                    Has anyone any idea what's digging up my front garden please? I suspect it may be a badger as I've been told there's a sett not to far away. Also, is there anyway of discouraging it?

                        Thanks Martin. It looks like I've got a problem. :doh::) I'll start by laying some fencing on the lawn as the link suggests.

                              If I feed him @Jiffy he'll come back for more and I want to discourage him. :)

                              Now why didn't I think of Jeyes fluid @Zigs ? :doh:Yeah, I know, I'm stoopid! :snorky:
