Party Vibe

if I lived there I’d call the council and complain it was species discrimination, rats are animals too…I saw a film about sewer rats and they were really well organised, the male and female both share the duties of raising the offspring, better than many human familes!

I actually saluted a big fat rat I saw running in the gutter in Portman Road – I though as people salute magpies here for luck, why not salute a rat? :laugh_at:

To be fair the rat (an impressive very healthy specimen with sleek fur) was one of the most dignified things I had seen in that part of town. and unlike the badger it did not nearly cause a collision.

other than geriatric hookers (or maybe CID on undercover business) its a good place for urban wildlife, seen several foxes and even a cat what waited at the foot of the bobby robson statue for a bit (like a story I read of a yappy dog what would visit his masters grave) perhaps his family are all ITFC supporters :laugh_at:

nah, but I nearly crashed into it 20mph… ran straight out into my path on a unlit country rode (this is why there are 3 independent sets of lights on my bike!). It was a massive badger too, about the size of a bull terrier…
