1) pigeons: Did I ever tell you about the time a couple of years ago that I woke up to find two pigeons in my lounge? I did the obvious thing you would do; I shut the door and rubbed vigorously at my eyes, in the belief that they would have disappeared when I re-opened the door. Amazingly this did not work and I then spent half an hour chasing them out of the flat and about another two hours cleaning up all the pigeon shit. Lovely. Anyway, came home from work Friday and Peter tells me he got up that morning to find a pigeon in the kitchen and that it had scared the crap out of him! I was fairly confident I'd traumatized the original two pigeons sifficiently by chasing them around the lounge in my pyjamas that they'd pass the word on and this wouldn't happen again. Would appear I was wrong and I'm thinking I may need to get some sort of screen for my kitchen window.

2) postcards: I got four postcards last week! Thanks so much to mrs_leary, bellasianna, nahara and starrylizard; I've added these to all the others on the wall in my office at work:

Sadly my giant fern seems to be covering a few so I'll have to move those! Pretty right? =)

1 + 2) Yay for postcards! You have a fab collection. :) And can I just say, I must have fantastic sixth sense or something because I seem to have channelled all your pigeon problems subconsciously. I did, after all, send you a postcard with pigeons on it. Weird, no?

3)That's excellent news!

Take it from me - no such thing as a smart pigeon - they're all greedy, stubborn buggers. I regularly get them flying into the windows when they're SHUT and they leave perfect imprints on the glass, get up off the floor, shake and fly off. Even the cats have given up and dog couldn't give two shits about shifting them either.

Best of luck with the computer.

I love your postcard wall!!! It's so pretty and it makes writing postcards so much fun, because they are really appreciated!

Sorry I've been so MIA lately, uni, work and life just keep hogging all the time I used to spend online.

Hope you are doing good and the best of luck with the computer!

OH PIGEONS. Stupid, even for birds! I'll have you know that, however, thiiss story when it's NOT you is hilaaaaaaaarious.

Did you leave a window open or something? How the heck does a pigeon get into a flat?

You're going to need more wall soon for your postcard collection! :)

It's unfortunate pigeons don't seem to have morphic resonance, otherwise they'd know to stay away from your house! Silly birds...

YAY COMPUTER

Kate had the same problems with pigeons few days ago. And she has real phobia. I imagine I would be pretty scared too. Shep would probably hide under the bed ;)

1) Do you sleep with a window open? I can't do that because I'm paranoid. (Also, it's a million degrees outside.) But my family's cat sometimes used to catch birds and bring them in - alive. There was the one incident with the angry bluejay in the bathroom. That was not pretty.

2) I love your postcard wall! Are those killer whales I spy up there? At some point, I will make it to the post office and then...

Bahaha the other day a pigeon flew into my window and then dropped out of sight, it scared the crap out of me and then I almost died laughing, hee!

Yay for getting your computer back!

Pigeons O_o I've met lone sparrows a couple of times coming home (and even those were brought by our late cats) but a pigeon would completely freak me out :) That's just unreal!

Did you get the computer? I'm having my fingers crossed for everything working fine this time :)

*squeezes*

Ohhh postcards. I have a few left... Mull or Glasgow. You want one? <3

Sweetie, I hope you got the computer back *crosses fingers*

Your wall is so pretty :)

Too bad rubbing your eyes didn't work with the pigeons. I think finding birds in my house would scare the crap out of me, too! The screen sounds like a good idea.

*huuuuugs*

Yay for postcards. They look awesome.
I'm sorry you're having a tough time. If you can see me online, I'm always happy to distract any way I can. *hugs*
