Shiver. Lee I am also a good buyer but a bad sender. And now I am scared you are sending me a slug. Bleurghhhh. AOJ, exactly. Belle, I have never salted a slug but I must admit if this one hadn't drowned I would have been tempted. I squidged it, in my bare hands. :( WT, that was funny, heh heh. You are wicked. Holl, I like the Tallullahmay one. Fabulous darling, and 'friend of Holly' is my middle name's middle name. Kim, I just thought @What a way to go.' Poor little gross creature. Erin, it made me heave and I had to disinfect my hand but apart form that it was great. ;D Karisma, my head may have swelled a little but the slug on my fingers made it shrink right back down. :D Thanks though. :D Maureen, I was not brave, I squealed like a 3 year old hee hee. I just could not believe it. Mie I flung it in the bin, but then I fished it out later to take its pic so I suppose I am a bit of a hard chick, heh heh. Faye, ants are bad too. I'll let you keep them, but you can have my slugs for free, I'll even gift wrap them. Lilacs, you'd be amazed the spaces they can get through. It's scary. They can splurge under doors and through tiny gaps. They are splurgy. chrisb, maybe I should make that my quest, to discover their purpose. Maybe they are here to make spiders look cuter?? Tara, LOL, I am sooo impressed with hubby. It must be a UK thing, there are just so many around and they seem to like my house. Momo, I will never do it blind again. It was quite traumatic, I may never be able to go near the sink ever again. Result. Swampy no. Wth snails it's allowed, but slugs? No no no. They leave yellow trails. That stuff isn't gravy you know. :P Jen, ants are bad because there are just so many aren't there. I suppose at least with slugs I can scoop them up in a tissue and throw them out the back door. But ants are not slimy so at least if you touch one you don't feel soiled for life. :D Susan that’s exactly what I said. Shiver.

I wouldn't want to pull up a piece of water-logged pasta anymore than a slug. *shudder* I'm with Faye, you can have our ants in return for a few slugs. I'm starting to think ants are un-killable. Except with bleach. *tee-hee* I refuse to use my bare hands when washing in the sink or fishing around to see what may have plugged up the drain.

When we fetch the cat's bowl in every morning there are at least 5 or 6 of the things crawling all over it. And they are always HUGE. Hubby has now designed a moat-style system using PlayDoh and salt to keep them out! Gross! When we fetch the cat’s bowl in every morning there are at least 5 or 6 of the things crawling all over it.
