Invaders!

We're under attack! They're not coming one by one, they're coming in their tens and hundreds. Valiantly the Q family grab any weapon at hand and defend their home. We kill them - one here, one there, sometimes ten in one foul swoop. Undaunted the enemy regroups and attacks again, ever faithful to the queen they serve.


We feel the pressure and increase our defences. A protective moat is placed around our treasure:




But no!!! *audible gasps by the Q family as we realise that innocent civilians who have no interest in the treasure are falling into the moat and drowning* Such are the casualties of war.


One enemy soldier breaks through the defences and appears on a treasure sandwich made for Anika.


Will we win?? I suspect the battle continues until the annual pest control happens in January.
(innocent civilians being the ones that hang around fluoro lights)
