Default Catalytic converters

The DM article on the nationwide theft of these makes another good reason to stick to our Rovers.

Spread orange and lemon peels around.

There is a blue gel product available from.pet stores and DIY stores for this. It was successful for us about 25 years ago, but is probably diluted due to health safety (though it was safe back then for plants)

Our neighbours cat repeatedly dug up and Poo’d all over my sons memorial garden. Cant stand the wretched little things, and you should be able to claim some form of criminal damage against the owners.

They are animals, they won’t realise it’s a memorial garden, there are products you can get that deter cats from the area.

Reckon a ruddy big Rotweiler would do the trick.
