(Sounds too much like my house).<BR/>Shocking to hear of the terrapin, it makes me sick to the stomach to think about it. I get upset enough when some of the kids in our neighbourhood throw stones at birds nests.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27792849.post-13749622539302681102007-11-11T09:59:00.000+00:002007-11-11T09:59:00.000+00:00Hi Steve,I haven't actually seen the Virgin Media ...Hi Steve,<BR/>I haven't actually seen the Virgin Media advert but then perhaps that is a good thing. If you think about it, it isn't just Virgin media but also the TV stations that show the adverts that should re-think actually showing the advert.In Cardiff we have a similar situation, the local newspaper did an article about human trafficking in Wales and named massage parlours that they felt used trafficked individuals.But the paper also carries adverts for local massage parlours so in fact they are receiving profits from the misery of trafficked individuals.They have now discontinued the advertising! Not exactly the same but the hypocrisy makes you think.<BR/><BR/>Hi Casdok,<BR/>I never cease to be amazed at man's inhumanity to animals. As a child I caught a butterfly and had it in a jam jar with holes in the lid and within a few minutes it died and I was absolutely devastated that I had killed it.I just can't imagine purposely hurting something in the way the terrapin was hurt.How have we created a world that behaves in this way?<BR/><BR/>Hi Marla,<BR/>I'm with you on WHY CAN'T I STOP COLLECTING MORE STUFF?<BR/>Where does it all come from? I am of the opinion it is self-multiplying.<BR/>Whilst sorting out my bedroom I came across a number of baby things that came from my sister-in-law when my girls were small.They include toys and clothes and baby bedding from her daughter when she was a baby, her daughter is now expecting her own baby and is 30 years old!As the things are in perfect condition, I shall gift them to my niece. I know she will be thrilled.MOTHER OF MANYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02555514242369474271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27792849.post-7989471659608316332007-11-10T23:13:00.000+00:002007-11-10T23:13:00.000+00:00I love getting rid of things.

Now, why can't I stop collecting mores stuff though!Marla https://www.blogger.com/profile/03926898159751613267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27792849.post-16941047829126706852007-11-10T16:31:00.000+00:002007-11-10T16:31:00.000+00:00The poor terrapin, cant believe it.
