Hence the term Hogmany, corrupted to Hogmanay in Northern parts. It has been conjectured that the singing of Auld Lang Syne with linked arms originated as a protective measure against rampaging drunken hedgehogs Sadly, those few who have observed this phenomenon have been accused of indulging in too many slugs of electric soup themselves That's amazing! I never knew that. I always thought the Scots were a bit *****ily, that explains it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would pack the chutney now and do a runner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EstoniaTallinnRed Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 RR would be better off, if he put half a ton of chippings on his kitchen floor, they won't slide over them, as it sucks up their slime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't see Mrs Robbo going for that! I put salt down and sweep it up in the morning, but its hygroscopic (I had to look that up) properties leave the floor unpleasantly damp.

Quite right too. A strip of copper tape on the floor in the doorway will deter the little beggars. Anyone who's ever stepped barefoot on a slug will appreciate that advice.
