Corvid Rat Dinner - an omen?

[The_Don_ORiordan]

I’ve definitely seen more rats in the past month than for a long while, both dead and alive.

I wonder if there is a link to covid and the rat population I.e. food waste increase? Less vehicles on roads?

Interesting. I said the exact same thing the other day, only I live in Prague, not in the UK. I didn't see a single rat here for perhaps eight years, now this year I see them every day. Massive ones, everywhere. I just assumed it was more 2020 bull****.

Don, if you were a Gruaniad reader, you would know that extensive links have been made between Covid-19 and a significant growth in the size of rats and their numbers for just the reasons you outline. Additionally, streets in towns are much less populated thus emboldening rats.

Corvid and covid are the same thing if you have a Lancashire accent (think Freddie Flintoff).

Up there, Joe and jaw are pronounced the same.
