Title: Kangaroo!
Post by: mildflame on November 03, 2010, 02:19:25 PM
My back fence is a borderline of a campground and wildlife resurves, This morning when I woke up I went outside and looked over at the pool. Turns out that the pool cover had gone down so I went over there and half the water was missing! I pulled back the solar cover and there was a dead skippy in my pool!
Take a look at the pics  ^&^

Looks like you have a job on your hands draining all that water, if that's what needs to be done...How weird!

Poor bugger got stuck under the cover I suppose, horrible to have to drag it out and dispose of it too.

If it was the real "Skippy" from the original show, it would have got on the mobile phone and called in the helicoptor with those two blokes who could always understand every word the kangaroo said (NOT).

Shame it worked out bad for both parties.  ^&^

Do you think there is any chance insurance would cover the pool damage?

Poor roo would have gone thru hell, nothing FUN about drowning no matter what it is...

Sorry your prized pool was damaged, but i feel such morbid pics dont really need to be posted so publically......poor taste!

Admin - please remove.

I agree with Marty. The pics have no place here so please remove them ASAP. If not, I will remove them myself tomorrow. I don't think we need to be seeing pics of dead fauna on a pinball forum.

Was a bit TOO graphic. I feel for the 'Roo and hope the pool repairs are too expensive !
