@LG_ I would prescribe: Thick gloves, deep breath, hurl the rat.
Then go and have a nice cool shower and if you've got some good moisturiser, - especially one with a woody or 'green' fragrance, like lavender or sandalwood - apply some to the driest bits - elbows and knees and ankles - and also across your collar bone. Loose clothes, natural fibres. Then a long cool drink and a good book somewhere in the shade for a few hours, if you can. Either that or go for a swim if there's a Lido near you, or a walk along the river. Hope for some rain tonight.

There's nowhere to hurl it, @raisingirl - neighbours all around. I may hurl myself in the process, however... Going to have to bury it (even though I know they'll probably dig it up). The thought of it in a bag in the bin is even worse.
The temperature here is not too bad at the moment - there's some cloud cover. Just no moisture in the air at all. I will moisturise but it's almost like I need moisturising from the inside out as well! I am drinking plenty. Water - not moisturiser!

Have you been getting into trouble with the law Punkdoc? I saw a post it said "language on the forum" I though oho, who has been swearing! Very excited been raining a couple of hours here, only very fine, orchids outside (and all the other houseplants) having a lovelly shower, still very warm though.
Re The Byrds quote [or rather Bob's quote] - I love Joni's - 'we look like our mothers did, now, when we were those kids' age' from Chinese Cafe. I still can't forgive The Byrds for Mr Tambourine Man.... The rain has stopped here now - lovely bit of moisture overnight and this morning. Lighter than we would normally have, and no wind, but 'everywhere' is grateful for it. doc - I take it the police were less than helpful then? Bite the bullet LG - as r'girl says - grab and wrap and bin.Then treat yourself afterwards I'd better have some lunch. Anyone got anything? Spam?.....
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
I think the best version of the song, is from the 30th. anniversary concert for Bob Dylan. it has many greats on it including: Tom Petty, Neil Young and George Harrison. No the Police did not help, but perhaps it is not within their remit.

Though I suppose, while the foxes have revolting habits, at least they seem to be despatching with rats.
