No, no...they are far too small and bony to eat! Best left for cats to do that.

Oh well !
That was a wasted effort in trying to explain my point about sharing .
Stupid replies that go to show the mentality of some of the UK expats in "Super Bock" strip.

I'm disappointed.
I thought this was going to be a gay accapella thread.

Forgive me but I thought that the House Martins metamorphosized into the Beautiful South and then Paul Heaton went solo.

We have them here, we don't do anything about them, but we do leave our sunbeds on their sides when not in use......

Hi Ingles...
this is a forum .... not a soap box. I hope you can see that most of us were being a little 'tongue in cheek' with our responses. House Martins are indeed a beautiful sight to see when they return. However, they can be a messy and unhygienic nusiance too. :)

All I gave was an idea of how to prevent housemartins from nesting in an area where they had never been before. You were (and are) the only one who got personal.
With regard to sharing, how about sharing some love?
