This thread will do...
One of our gerbils died last night, it was getting on a bit in gerbil years so it's to be expected. Except it had an eye missing. My first thought was that one of the kids was playing a bit rough with it or something and injured it but on further investigation it seems likely that it was eaten by the remaining gerbil. Apparently, when one dies the others eat it it dispose of the corpse because a decomposing corpse is likely to attract unwanted attention from predators.
Just a little something to start your day with.
Did you not once have to fish an expired gerbil from the U-bend of a sink? If I was a gerbil I wouldn't come anywhere near your place. |

Close. It was a Guinea-pig that I had to fish from a drain on the balcony. http://thetownend.com/index.php?topic=48655.0 |

I love how you refer to it as a 'stupid cunt' - that's made my day. |

Just had a cold call offering a pre-paid funeral plan.
Does somebody know something I don't?

The inflation on funeral costs is actually ridiculously high, so pre-paying makes a lot of sense in most cases.

I fancy a Viking funeral a la Kirk Douglas.

I would like to be embalmed and put on display in a glass case, Lenin style.

Yup, had a depressing conversation with my parents recently about death, wills, etc. However they've prepaid for funeral arrangements so one less thing for us to worry about when the inevitable happens. |
