Well, Placi, I suppose there are three that I have seen in the past few weeks:- a 'usual' ( :laugh: ) medium sized one, the majestic one and the wee scampery one :D :fox:

This morning I found incontrovertible proof that a fox is snacking on hedgie's mealworm supper. I don't know whether to be thrilled or sad :goodevil:

The legendary Crufts dish is no more :(. I dropped it. :shrug:
The burgeoning dependant menagerie now has two stainless steel bowls, one water, one Crufts.
Nuthatch, your memory is terrifying !!

Oh nooo :( I'm deeply shocked and saddened. Stainless steel is the way to go though :nod:

(A few months ago I admitted defeat and bought a stainless steel cafetiere after having bought 94 replacement glass beakers for the 49 outer frames we have :rolleyes: however it's not the same somehow - not so sparkly and interesting to look at - you can't have everything, can you :shake: :laugh: )

Absolutely spot on - stainless steel has no soul. Aaaaand another thing - since the advent of stainless steel knives 50 years ago you can't get a razor-sharp edge that lasts on a kitchen knife. I sorely miss that :weep:.

Only good thing about these new bowls is that they have a rubber ring around the base so they don't move around whilst :hedgehog:/ :fox: is eating. Next morning they're not a yard away from where I put them the night before :). This modern technology can be quite cunning at times .......
