Random Miscellany Featuring Beavers And Other Suspects

In the never-ending hunt for miscellany, TheEye casts its glower in the direction of the newly-valuable Austrian Times.

From here TheEye, who was brought up in the countryside and so is not daft about the fact that wild animals might actually do things without permission, found a most amusing story.

In Subkowy, Northern Poland, “campaigners” found 20 neatly stacked tree trunks and other trees marked with notches for felling at a beauty-spot. But when these idiots followed a trail left by a tree which had been dragged away – they found a beaver dam across a nearby river.

Perhaps the beavers could contribute to some sort of ‘carbon offset’ scheme along the lines of a hate-figure for this site – Al Bore.

At the Austrian Times we also get some excellent information about the world as it is.
Pre-chewed pencils for busy kids – an ideal stocking filler for the children.
An idiot has built a garden fence from over than 400 discarded skis.
…and with deference to my blogroll recommended friend TheCheeseYard
Mice eat themselves to death on 750k GBP of parmesan cheese

Check out some more of this site if you wish. It’s very odd.

Serious matters return soon.
