A freep or a shog? Your choice, but don't try it. | You'd (or is the ewe'd) have to build higher fences

I went to visit an elderly bloke I used to care for, he loved showing me round his garden he was in his 90s and still grew runner beans lol
He told me he had found a frog in his water butt.. 
He asked me how it got there..
I have no idea I dont think there was a lid on it so a bird could have dropped it in. |

She may have water that can't support, wood. Don't jump to conclusions,

Yes that's it, Deb must either get her water from a thermal nuclear reactor using light water or she is mixing in alcohol
I think Kayleigh's advice was very sound, especially with all the rain around at the moment. I once found a frog in my white water drain, fortunately before it had drowned, so have now made the cover frog proof and always check my trouser pockets before they go into the wash .

Nothing of the sort. It came from an old chest that I found on my travels. Contained nothing but a few battered yellow coins, which I threw in the bin, but I thought the wood would be useful for wildlife.
