WEEKLY CHAT (non-osprey) SUNDAY FEBRUARY 8, 2015

Hi everyone!

  • Brenda - thanks for news of Margo. Sorry its being a difficult week. Hope to hear from her next week.EDIT - hope you managed to get that nice walk and lunch out, Brenda.
  • Friend and I have been munching on jelly babies and laughing ourselves silly at the cinema - we saw "Shaun the Sheep" which is just hilarious! Its a full length version of the TV programme, made by Aardman Animations who make all the Wallace & Gromit films. Highly recommended for a good giggle - there is so much attention to detail in all the scenes, and there are lots of great characters, even though most of it is grunts and "baaas" without any recognisable words said!
  • I guess I should admit to a couple of days of lurking. Have been reading all the posts, and sorry about people with bad tummies etc and upsetting news from friends or families. Won’t look right back, but I do remember the following:

    A great description from Limpy of his work at Minsmere – hoping you can soon get proper pain control and return to normal duties.

    A great picture of Little Big-Eyes from Linda!

    And other things which were in my head and have now escaped again – sorry!

    Sorry to read, from Brenda, that Margo is having dehydration problems again – seems a while since that happened before. The week is nearly over, so hang in there, Margo, and keep drinking!

    We haven’t had a busy week, and took time out to plan some trips away later in the year, including to Osprey sites. We went to Gardening Group Tuesday evening, which really made me very tired, having been away from people for so long, so we didn’t go to Bird Club on Wednesday. We have been away from church for so long, that we had a visit from the Pastor this week, which was actually very encouraging.

     

    Ospreys Rule OK, but Goldfinches come a close second!

  • Brilliant few days with eldest...

    Amazing weather...

    Home tomorrow ...

    We have just enjoyed our "last supper"...

  • Glad you had such good weather, WENDY, to add to the pleasure of your Daughter's visit.

    Ospreys Rule OK, but Goldfinches come a close second!

  • Sounds as if you've thoroughly enjoyed yourselves, Wendy. Such a happy thing, enjoying the company of family. OG - Sorry you've been tired lately - join the club!! I keep dozing off when I sit down - I think I'm allergic to winter!!
  • I think I'm allergic to winter/I yawn and I trip and I grumble!/I would rather prefer/To live somewhere war-mer/Be it ever so humble!
  • I'd rather wear less/- like a light summer dress/Than all these layers of clothes/I get tired & itchy/I turn rather twitchy/ Without the sight of the sun/If it keeps being grey/I start to say "Hey!"/" When is the Spring going to come!?"
  • Very Good Linda. At least you know you are going to find the sun soon :-))
