Snails like FiM too but not in a good way

[shabbychicdee]

i'm sorry guys i had to share this
 
my darling daughter who likes to throw things out of the window in our living room throw my pretty FiM calendar out when i wasn't looking and i found it the next morning when i opened the curtains
  i thought she had grown out of this, well the snails in the garden had a great snack, most of the pages are like this

 ruined inside and out, i loved this calendar, it was one of the nicest i have had so far as i make a point every year to get one, thanks to my beloved buying my first one being a G3 one.

now its too late in the year to get a new one, i am a person who needs a big calender handy as i have terrible mummy brain

What the hell kind of snails do you have!? Geez! I had giant African snails (about the size of a grapefruit) who loved paper, too, but they never did damage like that!

wow i thought our can be big but not that big geeeesss, we just have heaps of them, i guess they have just come out of hibernation and are very hunger

Omfg you've got some seriously Lovecraftian snails in your back yard. Do they secrete ACID????

I don't know if it would help, but the bookstore nearby is still selling some 2013 calenders on sale. Do you want me to look and see if I can find one like this?

  do they poop a lot, my son always points that out to me when they crawl along the outside of the window

That's a real bummer! I feel bad for you.

Aw, I'm so sorry. 

[shabbychicdee]

hehe thanks guys, i know its silly complaining about a paper thing but i can't believe how much eating was involved

Daaaaaaaannnnnng girl, those snails!  I hope you lock your doors at night.

oh thanks hun, but post price from the states has sky rocketed since jan , how much are they if you dont mind 

The ones I saw were marked down to like $4 or so. I'd have to double-check to see if they have any pony ones, but if so I'll pick one up.

I still have a couple of these left for sale if you really want a new one. Shipping outside North America is minimum $7 these days though

Wow, I, too, am shocked that snails could do something like this!

[hathorcat]

I am joining in the "woah...what the heck kind of snails do you have?"

I am so sorry about your calendar

Perhaps you could print off your own? I am happy to scan the pages of mine which Ren Ren so kindly send me.

[Ren-Ren]

OOH! That's a good idea, hathorcat!!

[shabbychicdee]

oh great idea, thank you
yes please, my darling has a printer at work i will ask him if he can print them out for me

oh and yes they do come inside  when we do have warm days in winter time when its been raining non stop and i have left the windows open and they crawl along the ceiling. sorry to gross you out . the joys of living in auckland, at least we don't have any other yukky creepy crawly's with 6 legs in our house ...............thank gawd
