p.s.

There's an animal story floating around here that a family of Meerkats have escaped from someone's house and they are not able to  catch them. 

I reckon we could be seeing the start of a new invasive species living in Hungary.  What with global warming, they could survive if the eagles/hawks don't get them first.

It reminds me of the now extensive wallaby colonies in the UK - mainly Isle of Man, Scotland and South East.  No natural predators and quite a few thousand hopping around.

Doom loop:

I was discussing this job in Africa last week and the plan was to fly via Brussels. 

And of course the airport there is in chaos because of the cyber attack.

It's like the entire thing has got a death wish.

@fluffy2560Had someone in Wales doing the same thing, moaning. It's the bloody countryside. It's actually safer than dog poo. It actually washes away in the rain. But its in the road, its not in the pavement where people stand in dog poo.  - @SimCityAT
Yes, it's just life in the country. Dog poo goes in the bin here.
If we want horse poo here, we have to buy it I think at the local stables. We might even have to bring our own bags. It's really good for the garden. Just really vegetable matter. We do see horse poo in the forest as some of the trails are used by people pony trekking. No-one collects it. And if it rains, it's gone.

Apparently if you want to keep animals out of garden, like cats. Tiger, bear and other similar poo is supposed to work wonders. They are all frightened of what might be lurking around. But where to get this stuff from? The zoo? - @fluffy2560

  If you are looking for extra poo, just bring a scooper to the sidewalks of Budapest!

Wrong kind of poo.

One doesn't want dog mess in the compost.  That'd be dangerous. 

But horse poo is fine but it's better dug into the ground to rot down.  We dig our compost into the ground on a regular basis.   If I had the energy I'd create some "hot beds"

When we take our dog walkies in the forest, she usually obliges there.  We cover it up with leaves and dirt.  We don't remove it.  The bugs have to eat and they are very keen.   I expect it'd be completely rotted down in a week or two.

I know, I was just trying, key word, trying to be funny. It can be such a mess in the city on certain streets. They do wash up the streets and sidewalks at least once a week where we live. Sadly it does not stay clean for long.

  I thought chicken poo was the ,gold standard of fertilizer.

Horse poo must be alright too.

What a topic!

Gross thing I heard, hope it is just a rumor, is some Chinese garlic used human waster to fertilize the ground.

Yikes!!

I do not go to the dark web but this tale is dark.

Saw it last night, The Erfurt Latrine Disaster.

60 nobles drown in poo when the floor of a church broke, what a way to go!

Chicken poo is a great fertiliser.  I must say, when we had chickens here, they were quite good fun to have around. Shame they met a horrible end due to negligence of our neighbours not locking them in their house at night.  That was the second set of chickens.  My MIL didn't lock the first set in at night and they were also murdered. 

But I always wondered about the chickens eating insects etc.  I tended to think of them as insect to egg convertors.  That doesn't sound that nice.  But the eggs were good.

I've been to Erfurt and I can confirm that you wouldn't want to hang around - poo or otherwise.  I think I stayed in a "pyramid" shaped hotel there.  The rooms were oddly shaped with windows that were far too big.  It was overlooking a major highway.  All the drivers could see you when the lights were on and the blinds open. 

Correction!  The hotel was in Fuerth.  I was "close", 222km apart.

Here in the countryside, horses are a common site; our 2 daughters both worked at the local stables and would often ride the horses around the village to exercise them.  I'd go out with my wheelbarrow and collect the mess they left behind and turn it over in our flower beds.

Dang,the Luxor in Vegas has nothing to worry about, this looks so weird.

That's dedication. 

I'd like some horse poo for the garden but we'd have to wait until winter and the beds are cleared. 

Then we could dig it in for it to rot down over the winter, ready for spring planting.

I'll have to try and get to know some local horses.  Sidle up to them, nudge-nudge, wink-wink, see if I can score an "on the spot" deal.   

Upside: Multiple dollops for a carrot or an apple.  Cheap! 

Downside: I don't fancy bringing the bags back in the car.
