Tam &Toby do Europe ...Take two

Sometimes diet can cause a person to be very tasty to bugs, meat, carbs and sugar traces are all detected by insects and they tuck in. Changing to a purely vegan diet without carbs (i.e. just unprocessed vegetables and no white rice or flour) can make you neutral to insects so they'll tend to ignore you.

We also found a similar thing with cats and fleas, after we ditched cat-food and fed ours lightly fry-sealed turkey etc (i.e. no catfood with all of it's carbohydrates) we discovered after a while that that all the fleas had left too and never came back! For their final old-age years we couldn't find a single sign of a flea on any of them - spooky and super clean.

Great thread BTW, Jade looks a really fine smart dog, Milo is cute and good to read to inspire me about where to go and what to see in a motorhome/camper!

Think i will put up with bug bites:LOL:
 
Thinking back on the dogs and sixth sense. They definitely 'do ' telepathy, if you think about it their language to each other is largely silent, (certainly body language is sometimes involved, but I think hard stares, teeth bared and hackles up,is their version of shouting) but when they are just having a normal, friendly, quiet conversation between themselves they definitely use telepathy, we can't see or hear anything between them. But i've often seen my old dog return from her morning stroll around the croft, approach the younger dogand pause briefly before coming in doors. The next moment the young dog is away down the field, if I have my wits about me and follow discretely the young dog will go directly to a certain point where she begins to roll.
Yes, her good friend the old dog has told her precisely there she will find a lovely heap of fox poo to roll in!
So what's to say the dogs being walked some distance away are not communicating with the sleeping dogs in your van?

Aye it certainly seems that way but I did t want to sound crazy. But watching these two is fascinating at times as they do seem to know things before I can even see them
 
We had a wee walk up to the cliffs again and down past the herd on the other side.
There's a bit of a haze over the sea today but still been 19° so not bad

As a kid I always said that when I grew up I wanted to be eccentric.
I think there are only 3 requirements to achieving this goal : old age, craziness and wealth.
I'm almost there! Only one of the three left to achieve. :ROFLMAO: No prizes for guessing which one.

LOL, the main attraction is sugars (simple and complex) so sugar (obviously!), cakes, white flour and white rice are out (they have same nutritional value as falvoured cardboard anyway), so meat + veg would do pretty much all you need to get the bugs to leave you alone.
People aren't designed to consume processed sugars/carbs, insect bites are natures way of telling you to stop; the Romans didn't conquer the world on oven chips and McDonalds ;)

Also my cats only ate meat and after the carbohydrates left their system they were immune.
You can get some pretty nasty diseases from the wrong tick so look out for yourselves!

I've found a reasonable beer in mercadonna. €3.50 for 12 stubbles and a nice red wine €1.88 A bottle..that does me

I'm not a big drinker 2 or 3 beers in a day or a bottle of red over 2 days and that's pretty much it.
 
Our JRT, Gina, can sense when there’s anything around outside at-it seems-any distance.
3 large Deer across the field about 100 mtrs away and she’s woofing before she’s seen them and she’s in the van! They’re quite dark coloured and standing still against a dark background-shrubs & trees!
 
I have two friends that are animal communicators. I once said to one of them, I wish I had your ability. She replied it isn't easy knowing what abuse and suffering an animal is living with because often you are unable to intervene or help.
I do have what I consider a very low level of ability in this field and even that much can often be very sad. (It can also be wonderful), but as was said in that quote we lose this ability through listening to others skepticism.
What I hesitate to call more primitive peoples often still retain and use this ability.

I’ve got two of these. Very realistic, works through walls so can be placed out of sight. I’ve got one at back of house and one at side entrance. Has completely fooled a neighbours builder who came to side of our house to see her garage roof.
Even fools us if we come home and forget we’ve left it on. !

I'd not have thought it possible but I've actually met a girl who had this ability. She was in a park feeding the squirrels, but the squirrels would scamper up to her and eat right out of her hand! She had names for them all. Same with mice, birds etc, animals had no fear of her and would approach her (and only her, no one else!), she got these amazing photos of them as they sat on her and ate out of her hand.

Never seen anything like it before or since.
