Three cheers for natural fibers and other such things. It is what any regular person needs, and that is the straight poop.

Well - just remember ... Tilt started this and he's a Mod .... :tongue:

GENEVA (AFP) — A giant inflatable dog turd by American artist Paul McCarthy blew away from an exhibition in the garden of a Swiss museum, bringing down a power line and breaking a greenhouse window before it landed again, the museum said Monday.
The art work, titled “Complex Shit”, is the size of a house. The wind carried it 200 metres (yards) from the Paul Klee Centre in Berne before it fell back to Earth in the grounds of a children’s home, said museum director Juri Steiner.

He is an incorrigible fellow, isn't he?
Now i'm not sure which of you (Chris or Tilt) should be put on pooh-patrol!
But at least the floating turds isn't the product of a greyhound. If it did it would have the consistency of undercooked and watery porridge.
Off to Under-9's football game I go.
