Sunday morning early and I did my usual stumbling from the bed to the front door to let the mutts out to do their business and then off to the kitchen to make the first coffee of the day......
and there I was, waiting for the water to boil, when I heard an awful lot of screaming and yapping in the wood and pretty soon purple clouds of skunk stench came sailing into my house.
Skunks are nocturnal so chances are the mutts got to this one just as she or he was getting ready to go to sleep and really, really pissed her/him off. I have smelled a lot of skunks, but this one was so strong my eyes started to water and my nose to run. And yes, when the culprits returned, they did not exactly smell of roses and lavender........yucky pooh but they stank. And still do, for I have decided that if they are stupid enough to tackle a skunk then they may as well suffer the consequences, but as usual
it is I who get the short end of the stick, because I have to live with them *eau de skunk* or not.
Maybe i will give them a bath.......maybe

Right - if they are as stupid - they have to learn by smelling. I do feel for you, and your nose, but if i've decided that's the way, you have to live with it.
Maybe you'll learn :-)
I can't even write right.
I ment: if You've decided - ect.
That's what happens when you're old enough to celebrete 15 years of "bryllupsdag" 29/2 - you think faster than you write!
