Thought I'd share a wee story with yous.
A while back, after a family birthday night out, a few folk came back to my dad's house for a party... We were all very drunk and having a ball.
Later on in the small hours of the morning, when it was just me, my friend and a family friend left, I decided to bring 2 of my ratties into the living room to introduce them (as u do!).
Well, the family friend (who was extremely drunk) went apeshit shouting "get them out of here, they're vermin, ahhhh". She was clearly distressed by their presence...
Now, if I was sober, I would've taken the hint and took my girls back to their room.
But, being a drunken bum, I persisted in trying to get the woman to like them. Giving it the old "but they're sooo cute look!; they're friendly; they're clean, blah blah blah"
Sooo, the shouts of 'they're vermin, get them away' continued till she said 'if you don't get them out of here, phone me a taxi"
My intoxication, love for my ratties and my offence at the word 'vermin' being used caused me to promptly get up and phone her a taxi.
So, she left, whilst my girls were left contently running about the sofa...
I'm ashamed that I technically evicted a friend of the family over my ratties, but I have to say it still makes me chuckle when I think about it!!
(she has forgave me for it since - altho, I did still get my bit in about how they AINT vermin hehe)
