    My creepy neighbour is waving his testicles at the pigeons. What can I plant to block the view? Should I buy some spikes?

    Reverting to the way the Yoof of Today is brought up - I had to explain to a group of teenage lads how you could tell if wild strawberries were ripe, yesterday, when I was watering the community fruit garden in the park.  One of them said he'd sue me if they made him ill... but on the plus side, he did say they tasted nice...
    Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.

    I have removed my whole garden and replaced it with plastic. I would love to attract wildlife. Please advise.

    Just cute disney wildlife I hope. None of that nasty other stuff with all their creepy legs waving testicles. :#
    Have you been to the USA?  They actually do have cutout Disney characters scattered around their gardens.    :s

    Our tap water comes from the Lea Valley and has been recycled through millions of Londoners several times but as I pays for it, I drinks it. Pigeons do annoy me though, they're so stupid.

    "Our tap water comes from the Lea Valley and has been recycled through millions of Londoners several times ".

    Really? More so than other drinking water? I don't think it's a closed system of purified urine. Please say more.

    I think that is a bit of a myth, the tap water mainly comes from reservoirs and boreholes, and the drains mainly outflow into the thames, which then goes into the sea, not back into the reservoirs!
