Got any good advice?

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Simple. Don't eat the moths.
But they're just so damn tasty. :lol:

Do something like that every day.

I may be the only person ever to have saved a life with a sheet of Tesco Ultra Absorbent Kitchen Towel.
:lol:
I usually just use my finger for that. Drowning, they'll grab on anything. And even if it's a wasp or bee or spider, they'll never sting you in that kind of situation.
As for those that keep banging their heads onto my windows trying to get out, I use a glass and a sheet of paper to let them out. This is something I have to do all the time now in the summer, there's every kinds of them here, moskitoes, flies, moths, grasshoppers, ants, spiders, everything. Why do they keep crashgating into my house I have no idea. There's such a beautiful world for them outside. :?

back to moths/crane-flies/assorted night-time flutterlets:
when i was living in the back of my truck i came to despise them.being semi-nocturnal and often living miles from the shops,at least once a week you could guarantee that while it was still dark a) i would find myself on my last candle;b) the very cheap,brand new lighter that i expected to last forever would pop its flint; c) an enormous moth would fly into said candle and extinguish it,before crash-landing into the bowl of cornflakes i was about to eat. :evil:
Well I was handsome and I was strong
And I knew the words to every song.
"Did my singing please you?"
"No! The words you sang were wrong!"

today's advice:wear goggles when examining corroded brake-pipes on your vehicle;or spend 2hours washing brake fluid out of your eyes,whilst thinking you are going blind...like i just did :roll:

@ nick-there's two things to remember with regards to whatever you've heard about living on the road:
it sounds worse than it is.
and its far worse than it sounds. :lol:
(stangely these are both true).

Good Advice-Foil fiddling taxi drivers by taking polaroid photos of street signs as you pass them.At the end of your journey you can confront him with evidence if he has taken an unnecessarily long route :wink: :innocent: .
