Thread Name: BS: Frog Invasion!!!
Subject: RE: BS: Frog Invasion!!!
Enjoy
We have a blocked land drain in our acre of what passes for a garden -an annual fight with the rushes and the buchalauns.
Every year a frog lays it spawn, which is quite often dried up by now by the short spells of good weather we tend to get in the west o Ireland.
This year we've kept the taddies alive by topping up with a hosepipe and we now have dozens of half-formed frogs (not toads) venturing out onto dry land.
The survivors will eventually spread all over the garden and into the surrounding fields.
Help your visitors do the same and give yourself a medal for having done your good deed for the year.
