    While walking to my ride to work this morning a pigeon shat on my gym bag. I suppose I should be grateful that it missed my head and jacket, but still! :mad: So anyway, you natives of pigeon infested lands, I have to walk under this railway bridge everyday. How do you avoid pigeon sh*te? :~


    I knew it would end badly when I first met Chris in a Canberra alleyway and he said 'try some - it won't hurt you'..... - Christian Graus on Code Project outages

        Don't worry: you should be thankful, as it is a sign of good luck to be pooed on by a birdy, or so my Mum says. I must confess that I haven't quite sussed the logic out yet, but my Mum is always right :) Debbie

                  Lol - no good luck so far today. First I got pooed on by a pigeon, then the finance dept wiped their Sage stuff, so now I'm suffering with restores. At least tomorrow evening the weekend starts! :-D
