I too take them for a walk on the grounds that at least this delays their lunch, but then they've probably worked up an appetite by the time they get back...Pam https://www.blogger.com/profile/12641269043817163165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8630924445657816001.post-27125798818155748962011-09-27T19:51:06.968+01:002011-09-27T19:51:06.968+01:00my mums a hard gardener and can squish baby snails...my mums a hard gardener and can squish baby snails I on the other hand would take the for a walk like you!<br />xxxLynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03548006686821838698noreply@blogger.com
