Slugs in my house!
April 25th, 2008 | Filed under Personal.
What the hell! There I was, writing some prattle on the Internet when I heard a strange crunching sound from by my foot. At first I ignored it, then decided to investigate. A few shiny trails on the carpet caught my attention and then I had a major moment of disbelief.
Stuck to the top of the yoghurt carton is a slug. One of those brown ones that live in the garden and eat all your plants. Only it’s not in the garden eating plants, it’s in my house eating a yoghurt carton. It even made weird little chewing noises.
After staring at it in disbelief, having a little rant about it on the Internet I did what any self-respecting person does… whipped out my digital camera and took a picture. The slug is now outside again, I hope it finds plants nicer than plastic.
The weird thing is I can’t see where it came in. The slug trail stops at my settee, it doesn’t go underneath. Now if used car salesmen read this blog, maybe my landlord does too; in which case I also have a loose slate on the roof that needs repairing.
