Guest Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 A little lad brought in a box today which had, what I can only describe as dried out bugs in. Pretty impressive if you like that sort of thing! Anyway, after looking at it, Dad said he'd better take it home as it had come from Australia. But child wanted to keep it in school, so I promised Dad I'd put it on my desk and look after it. Towards the end of the day he wanted to show it to all his friends, so I carefully picked out this big fly, and it's head fell off! Luckily child didn't seem to mind, he was too busy showing off another creature. Mum didn't mind either when she picked him up, she asked if I wanted to keep them in school. Just have to face Dad in the morning. But oh how I laughed when everyone had gone These things happen! jackie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dottyp Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 I think I would have been tempted to glue it's head back on with super glue I did with a huge dragon fly my son lent me one day when his body broke in two! (the dragon fly that is, not my son dottyp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 I had a similar experience a child brought a bug from India in......when I opened the lid of the box to show the children we were all nearly sick.....it smelt like fish!! However I did manage to keep it entact but the children screamed everytime they were near it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
