Triffids,
I never thought of that one as an excuse, I wonder if it would work for me
. Mind you they would not last long up here, as it has been showery/ pi--ing down for about 4 weeks now.
Cheers
A.M.

Trouble is, Triffids are like Darleks. Their big downfall is when mankind goes upstairs.
How do they follow??
