Giant moths with huge snouts are invading Britain, in search of alcohol and tobacco.
Wha…?
The convolvulus hawk-moth migrates, by the few hundred, from southern Europe to these shores in the late summer and early autumn – and moth-enthusiast try and attract them with fags and booze.
Gissa fag guv.
Don’t these moths know it’s bad for their health? Maybe they should switch to electrofag?
Question is, what is Big Tobacco Control going to do about it? We need to be told.
I have a rather Alice in Wonderlandish vision of a moth sitting on a leaf drawing with delight on a Woodbine.
Indeed 😉
But how do they behave when they find the booze? Is it safe to go outside?
Yes, provided you don’t spill their pints or look at their birds…
