Apologies if this is posted in the wrong section but I felt the need to share in the faint hope of some support from my Argyle brothers and sisters 🙏🏼
As it’s bird nesting season my wife’s old Dad lovingly crafted her a wooden bird box for the garden. She was really touched by this and has gone out shopping for the day having left me with instructions in her absence to paint it for her and make it nice and colourful with some flowers etc.
I’m afraid I became possessed by an alternative idea and await her return with some trepidation ….. I am genuinely in so much trouble.
If anyone has a spare room please let me know 🤣🤣🤣

This has all the potential of the Owls coffee table which one of the lads on OT posted for sale a couple of years ago. It went viral and was one of the funniest threads.

We were reminiscing about it recently and wondered who had bought it. Someone suggested it might have been SingleOwl 😀

I hope the mods don’t mind, but in the interests of comedy, here is the Custom Made Epoxy Resin SWFC coffee table which was offered for sale on OT.

In his ad, the seller said ‘Wife forces Sale’ or words to that effect. The (admittedly legendary) Owls badge, hopefully making a return under the new owners, actually lights up to give a certain ambience to one’s lounge.

Obviously his wife didn’t think so.

Anyway it was bought by Furious George on OT who still has it , although there are now splashes of paint on it, so he’s probably been using it for decorating. 😀

We used to get visited by a Little Owl, it was lovely. A few times in the summer I would be sitting out the back garden and it would be on the guttering twooting away. Then Mr Treekilller bought the house next door and was allowed to chop down a two hundred year old-plus tree because it was near his house. I understand the basic point, it was huge and the roots could have created some serious damage, but I have not seen or heard that Owl since. :(

What a shame. Funnily enough, the Little Owl (Athene Noctua) is one of a number of birds of prey that feature in another of my poems, The Killing Field. So, despite it having nothing to do with Argyle and ignoring the risk that I might be accused of shamelessly plugging my creative works, since there seems to be a good number of posters enjoying this thread, here's a link to that poem: The Killing Field. It was inspired by some time spent in Suffolk, when I saw my first Marsh Harrier and, most wonderfully, a Hobby (along with Buzzards, Kestrels and a Barn Owl, and heard Little and Tawny Owls). It's somewhat brutal.

(And to give this post some connection to Argyle, here's a link to another of my poems: Blue (one of two poems that I have had published, other than on my own website/blog). Now what, you might wonder, does a poem titled 'Blue' have to do with Argyle?)

[Apologies if I am coming across a bit like a certain captain of a Vogon Constructor Fleet here... ;)]
