HAPPY NEW WEEK!
Last week's Chat thread is here.
I left a long reply on the end of last week's thread. I've got a nasty deadline this week for my project, so you all won't hear from me for a few days. I hope everyone has a great week! Eastern BluebirdLabelled Public Domain (Copyright Free)

Good morning everyone
Thank you for kind words about my youngest. I haven't heard anything today, as yet.
Hi Yas - I just came back on....been busy. Yes, OG is our short version of Original Goldfinch (long story, but someone else once tried to call themselves Goldfinch when ours already had the name...) She doesn't mind if we shorten it, as we also do for Aquilareen, who is now known as AQ around these parts.
I don't mind at all what you do with the poem - although others might wonder who the people mentioned, are, if they don't know them. I often put little ditties on here, and there are also some Osprey poems on the Community threads - if you search using "poetry" you may find the Poetry thread on there, but I hav'nt posted anything there for ages now.
EDIT; See below:

I like to live here, very dearly _I'd never ever leave it, nearly.No grand and stately home for meNo mansion, nor home in a tree. I sit here, proud and so aloofWaiting for Diane to come mow the roof....Watching pigs and ospreys fly overheadBefore I make my feather bed.

The reference to mad spaniel is because we have had a spaniel puppy since spring last year, and she is so full of beans, she is wearing us out!! We love her dearly but have been trying to find ways to keep her under control (she also escapes regularly from the garden)
[/quote] Hi Lindy can l put old girl instead of OG they will think l'm talking about the hamster, and can l leave Diane in has it goes so well, cause others wouldn't know who she is would they? what do you think l'm at your mercy. yas

You can do either, Yas - I don't mind. I'm not what they call "precious" about my scribbles :-)
Lovely day here now: lots of loads of laundry on the line and off again! Been weeding, too, as they seem to have appeared in our absence.
There is a great logo today on the Google Headline Page: its in honour of the lady who invented filming using cut out figures. Do go and have a look, everyone.
l wonder what it was on google lindy, thanks for your help with peom and l wouldn't call them scribbles people would pay good money for them. yas
