I write to advise you that your squatters rights to my pot of mint have now been revoked and eviction proceedings have begun. I was disheartened to find that our agreement for cohabitation no longer meets your requirements and that you felt the need to move friend's and family in without my knowledge or consent. As you have now eaten me out of house and home (namely tonight's dinner of Pea Tagliatelle with Mint Pesto ... not to mention Hubby's Mint Choc Chip Ice Cream!) you and your kin have outstayed their welcome. I attach pictures for your reference of the damage that has been caused.
In an attempt to keep the eviction proceedings amicable, each odius villain has been presented with a free flying lesson ... from the ledge of my third floor balcony ... I trust this remuneration is an acceptable way for you to all find new abodes. If our paths should ever cross again then I feel it is only fair to provide you with advance warning that court proceedings will be instigated ... at
dawn ... when there are hungry birds aplenty!

ReplyDeleteSo funny, hehe!
ReplyDeleteDear Mrs C Teapot. I represent the league of very hungry caterpillars and I take offense to your eviction of my clients, particularly the cruel way you disposed of them in the early hours of this morning. You will be hearing from the inchworm court and proceedings will be taken against you. May I advise you to seek legal aid. With Kind Regards Mr B. Utterfly D.C.M
ReplyDeleteDom! How did I know you were going to defend the villain's of the piece!! Instead of free flying lesson's from now on I shall give the evictee's a first class royal mail ticket to your garden for safer refuge ;0)
ReplyDeleteAha! I enjoy your negotiation tactics, I think i'll have to try it out in my garden.
ReplyDeleteI know just how you feel, Chele! I had a similar situation once with a squirrel that wanted to take up residence in my house. I had to evict that guy with no mercy.
ReplyDeleteHaha I hope your negotiations work!! I wasn't so nice the time they ate my basil completely up over night!!
ReplyDeleteLol, I'm still laughing! I hope it ends favourably for you as I want to see the mint creations :)
ReplyDeletelol what a fantastic blog post, thanks so much for the giggle!
