I believe budgie smugglers are the appropriate method of trafficking these critters. Simply substitute budgie with green tree frog.

Don't think I'm ever going to hear from the Frogsperts. I think they may just be a bunch of wierdos perving at naked frogs.

I mean, look at this!

I can’t understand why so many of you people here hate me? What have I ever done to you? That’s it. I’m buying a Holden.

I would be checking the tank if you do , years ago the wife made a cuppa for me and it tasted odd , there had been a now very cooked frog in the kettle.. I was crook for days .. very upsetting. ( I like frogs) and we do all we can to encourage them as those living in the gutters and plants clean all the bugs around the house , ring the rspca as I said and with luck the local frog nuts will com get them .

rofl loving this thread, but as was posted before, i'm waiting for a "our frog had tadpoles" thread......

anyway, i've only ever had 2 frogs in the house in 6+ years, despite the 2 dozen or so that seem to live in my gutters (yes, i've counted that many)

kinda why i dont spend too much time cleaning my gutters..... lol

There's a bloke that goes by the name of Mr.S. Carter that might be able to lend a hand, supposedly has experience in grogans. Usually spotted behind the wheel of a truck like this one

Well, after having 24 hours to give this serious consideration, I have opted for a nice Toilet Garden feature. I'm off to the recycling centre this weekend to buy an old crapper.

I mentioned the idea to Wifey last night and she thought it was a good idea too!

And waddyaknow, the Frogsperts have croked up with a brilliant idea today. "Why not create a Toilet Garden feature?" one of them says.

Seems like the go. He even reckons putting a pump in the cistern on a timer so it flushes at intervals!

This could get expensive and interupt my XA Coupe GT2B project, and allow me less Borboun time too! NOT HAPPY JAN!

Anyway, thanks for the input all. It was bloody fun. Shame we don't have a "Misc Project" section here so I can post pics of my project Boghole!

Cheers,

Mike

That is a good idea about putting a toilet outside.

As rodderz has said just warn your mates before you hit the drink.

And the beauty of it is we now will be a 2 toilet household!

And if the frogs don't like the new dunny, they can have ours and we can just crap outside in the new one!

If you are an AU owner and belive in Sourbastard's mental disease definitions. (See this thread: http://fordforums.com.au/showthread....ghlight=mental), will you be putting a Tickford Wing badge on the toilet?

this project will differ in that it may have a 9" rear end on the top not underneath

Could lower it a bit also, and dare I say it...put on some GT stripes :nutsycuck:

The little buggers have taken up residence in my air conditioing condensing unit. When I turn it on I hear clanging as they hit the fan prop blades and closer investigation reveals lots of legs and bits clinging to the guard.
