The flowers from last year scattered seeds on the path and step, which washed downhill in the winter and now I have marigolds popping up through my nice gravel patch next to the street.

I would assume it is because we don't have the right habitat for them, not enough trees, or the right sort of trees.
Am only guessing here :roll:

I never get annoyed by mother nature as I think we are the trespassers on her, never the other way round.

I would guess at not enough trees for them. You know they say if tarzan had lived in caithness he would of needed awfully long arms to swing from tree to tree.

What winds me up is the unpredicable weather we get. There is nothing worse than pouring rain just as you think it would be nice to take the kids camping. Or stuck at work with the sun blazing down and not able to get out to enjoy it.

Ok then, Dogs poo, on my shoes, but I could say thats because of humans not picking it up.
Rain especially when it come on suddenly in the middle of one of my stories, on the open topped bus when I am guiding, and all the visitors run downstairs and leave me in the rain

what winds me up about mother nature the most is when we are at sea and a bit of roughers (like a force 9 ha ha) comes after you've just had a massive dinner and you know that you cant go to bed as you have to go on watch.

A midge in the eye when you're walking or cycling along just enjoying the day.

It's only a matter of time before the first squirrel reaches Caithness and malarial mosquitoes arrive in the home counties what with global warming and more trees everywhere. Roe and sika deer and pine martins have already found their way o'er the Ord so keep your eyes peeled for squirrels scampering across the causeway mire. They're the only beastie I know that hesitates in the middle of the road then tries to do a U turn back to safety.

What is it with you woman... can't you manage to lower the toilet seat or something. Maybe us blokes get fed up with having to keep lifting the seat up. If it wasn't meant to be left up, it wouldn't be fitted with hinges.
That wasn't a male comment, you woman are lovely and i ed if we could manage without you.
" ouch i still got a slap for the first comment and i thought i was digging myself out nicely (from grief that is with 'er indoors not the toilet before i get any quick whitted replies)"

The toilet seat was made to lift,
for man the hinges were a gift.
For as you woman clearly know,
when left up it causes woe.

The problem is us standing blokes,
makes you the woman, the jealous folks.
For we can do our little deed,
in half the time you moaners need.

We stand and aim and job is done,
no removing clothes to expose our bum.
Now if your lucky, we'll down the seat,
to make you feel we've left it neat.
