Today the Queen invited me to,

The palace to bestow on me the,
the hedgehog grandad champion of 2022

that is a baby hedgehog created in my greenhouse by its mum and dad and looking very comfortable between the tomato plants, The drinks are on me,.

Plummy: is it eating a tomato? Is it male or female and have you given it a name?

Platty , Rule one in hedgehog parenting, never pick a healthy hog up, As for telling what sex is it, Even the experts have trouble there, The only real way is to watch them mating, I have named its parents, Alice and Ben and I can see the difference in their persona , When feeding the hog ( Ben) in a more aggressive hog and digs into the gravel and really clears all the insects and grubs , Alice the ( sow) is more petite,
I've read that The hoglets move on as soon as able to find food so, that may be the only time We will be ungraced with its presence ,

Plummy: have you given it a name

what about platty,

seeing as you follow him around everywhere.

You should meet Terry W there TP.... Arise Sir Terry for services to WW in identifying numpties... backbiters... tell-talers... crettins and the odd pillow biter

The worm is dangling in the cess pit

Spot on Baz......spot on

One down

Platty's not the only one, SD

And another one takes the bait...

BB: It's oh so easy...
They can't help themselves.

FULL HOUSE

I cant see what bait you have taken Baz and given that the only person I have acknowledged in thread is yourself perhaps you could tell me exactly what "bait" I have taken?

The clapping seals seem to find the situation amusing but because they have me on ignore there is no point asking them for an explanation

I don't remember taking any bait, i posted then the "usual suspects" turn up

Moths to the flame Baz, moths to the flame

4 in a row "Bannermen"

Moths to the flame Baz, moths to the flame

Exactly, they can't leave us alone.

Dunno what they're saying but you have to wonder why they are drawn like magnets. If they want to talk to themselves, why not start their own thread?
Surely they're not trying to hound people off this site in order to close it down? People wouldn't be that mean, would they?

why do you keep answering, then?

I remember someone else saying that.

Reeled him in again eh Baz?

Full marks

Just like Scorpions.... they stab Themselves to death.

Waaahhhaaayyyy.......FULL HOUSE

Isn't it just the funniest thing to say eh BB?

ZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

What I can't understand is, why do the bannermen continue to post on threads that I start knowing, I'm not going to read the the heaping pile of steaming manure they drop here,

What I cant understand is why the clapping seals who constantly claim to be ignoring the bannermen....................dont ignore the bannermen?

Anyone....anyone.....anyone??

Manure? You cant see what they/ we/us post. Keep me on ignore please tomplum

Mind if ask Tom?

Have you reeled me in or have I reeled you in

Its that time of night again FM.

Toms missus has turned in
Nowt on TV
So he logs on to WW to stir things up.

As predictable as the sunrise

That reet Tom?

well I must say they ( the bannermen) are eager to gain my response but, alas, they will not,
only leccylimbs ( the man who name himself after a disabled carriage) has the willpower to resist, for now,,

Willpower to resist eh?

Funny you should say that Tom!

This was, an interesting and informative post about nature and what happens in English gardens in Summer, I would be obliged if the bannermen could restrict their unknown and unwanted comments to the handbags board and not rob the world of quality postings,
I thank you in your cooperation's in keeping my threads an asset to Wiganworld,

Here... Here... as they say in Parliament. Bags packed... setting off from Brixham 8am to what looks like a wet billinge according to my alarm cameras

Many people have asked the same thing, FM

Thats the clapping seals for you Baz .........they cant go more than a few days without constantly reaffirming that we are persona non grata while at the same time demanding our attention.



Amusing but at the same time hypocrital and extremely pathetic.

Baz, You're not on ignore, You are a very entertaining member, anyone who can come up with original material such as you will always be on my list of , must reads, I'll always be a Hanger honour in your camp, I just thought you'd like to no that,

I see the bannermen are still eager for me to read and answer them but, I shall not because , they are boring with the same ole same ole sleepy ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ repeats of yesteryears posts, Now if for instance you said some clever stuff like Baz, I still would not read it but, You would feel better in yourself because of your ambition to improve your life,,

"they are boring with the same ole same ole sleepy ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ repeats of yesteryears posts, "



How clever was that Tom?

Baz, could you do me a favour and explain to your Boss That I cannot nor want to read his dull comments ,
Thanks Pal

I will explain to SD, as I don't have a boss.

"I cannot nor want to read his dull comments"

But you do Tom and its why you and the other clappers keep inviting them

However if you really don't wont my comments the answer is simple enough. just ignore them.

Then you wont have to keep recycling the same old same old in an attempt to try and get the last word

Thanks Baz, No wonder you don't have him as boss anymore, he's thinker that concrete, I'm surprised he did't set on the hottest day, Well you tried Baz, All I can do is see if Admin can make a rule to prosecute that, If any ignorees post on the threads of the ignorers , they get some form of penance,

Just do it Tom, ignore me, refuse to even acknowledge my existence. Its no skin off my nose......as they say

I cant see what is so difficult about it. No one will think any less of you and they might even stop laughing at your `I am ignoring him but obviously not` antics.

C-mon Tom, bit of backbone eh.....dont just keep saying it....DO IT

"Admin can make a rule to prosecute that, If any ignorees post on the threads of the ignorers , they get some form of penance"

Just a quick FYI Tom....

There is already a rule in place with regard to provoking others. If all of a sudden you want to take a moral stand can I suggest you start abiding by it

There is a Wigan saying, " tha cornt put nowt where there is nowt" , It means failing to understand, Oh well another informative post ruined by graffiti,

" tha cornt put nowt where there is nowt"

Your understanding, sorry, your lack of understanding with regards to the concept of irony Tom is something to be proud of.

Truly world class

13.45.. Home... wet in Billinge... TP. a better and more apt saying for the bannermen... "Tha con speyk to a mon wiy a wooden Leg.... Tha con't speyk to a mon with a wooden Yed"

then straight on here posting to Tom

Welcome home BB, Its nice to get away and , Its always nice to get home to your own bed,

Plummy: In today's paper there is a list of the 5 winners and losers in the heatwave and Hedgehogs come first. The other four are swifts, beech trees, puffins and bilberry bumblebees.
The hedgehog because it can get rapidly dehydrated and lots have been handed over to hedgehog rescue centres during the recent heatwave.

Are you putting water out? I think TTS had a hedgehog, might have been Tonks, but I told one of them to put water out.

BB: 5.5 hours, not bad. Was that with a stop?

I am stuck for words Baz…..I really am, no hang on I think I may have found a couple……..

FULL HOUSE!!

Platty I put watering stations at every venue, the greenhouse, shed and garden, they shifted ALL the food but not much interest was shown in the water, I'm thinking they are finding other watering holes, I'm feeding 3 hogs now Mum Dad and junior ,
Happy families,,,,

Plummy: Yes indeed, happy families. I've put water round and about in coconut shells and other people might have done similar, so hopefully they will all survive. But at least, they know where their home is - it's with the man with the big heart!
I wonder what name they've given you?

Yes a stop at Gloucester services.. nice there.... and obviously observed the speed limits.

Aye TP.... I like going... AND... coming whom

Well, BB, an upstanding (at times), pillow (occasional sheets to the wind) of our society, would observe the speed limits but might not adhere to them.

50 mph is the national motorway speed limit now.

Yup the Gloucester isn't bad.

When are you back at t'van? Want me to look in and open windows and stuff?

In't van next mon - fri... then Ireland on't bike in august... marvellous..... wonder what the poor Bannermen are doing ?

they will still be on here waiting for us to throw them a maggot BB,

Raining in Bolton-Le-Sands.... Platty... you havent cleaned my windows

He's probably too busy following plummy around.
