Evening/Morning all: Off to check out recent posts.

    Found it very easy to do.   Just went onto Word and insert for Clip Art. Found a pic I wanted, right clicked and clicked on copy and then went to my profile.   Went to edit and right at the bottom it has a space for signature, right clicked again for paste and hey presto! it arrived.

    Just seen looking through the posts again that it was a programme on Scotland so will try and get it up on I Player.

    That is a new way of doing it Lynette, love the cat :)

  • Hi Annette we are doing our best with Billy Whizz but poor little thing today.  It is pouring with rain and so far no sign of him.  I expect he has found somewhere to shelter, I hope so anyway.  I hope to do the falconry thing in late Spring or early summer.  If it rains you don't get your money back but book another date so nothing will be lost.

     

    My sister sort of organises me when we do the Xmas shopping.  As long as I don't lose my list things go well.  I much prefer to do it this way, can't cope with too many people around me who are often not in the best of moods at this time of the year.  It doesn't always seem like the season of goodwill.

     

    Good morning to all I have not mentioned  and as I expect some of you will realise it is a toilet watch day.  Lashing down with rain, got soaked putting the bird food out.  When it rains I just put a little out at a time so I will be in and out all day I expect.  As yet I have not heard about any flooding in this area but it is really bad in parts of Cornwall and also Devon.  This sort of weather seems to happen every year at this time.  People flooded out of their homes, shops loosing all their stock.  I really feel for anyone that gets on the receiving end of what appears to be a regular occurence now.  Was watching TV the other day and there are folks in Cumbria still waiting to move back into their own homes.  It seems that not all insurance companies are effricient in this respect.

     

    Have a good day all, keep warm and dry if you can.

  • Margobird Take care, and good luck with the toilet watch. 

    I have just come across this terrible news of a juvenile osprey, hatched and tagged in Sweden, has been found shot in Lincolnshire - only 86 days old.  Tragic. Why, oh why?  The police link was on the BBC news item.

    sheliaFE thanks for the link i have just read it that is awful how tragic and only 86 days old poor bird

  • So sorry ALICAT, been nipping to and fro this morning. Thought I had sent you a reply on the SOS thread but realised I had composed it but not posted! Have just posted it now.

  • Shelia, what a terrible thing:( Words fail me.

  • Afternoon all ... windy and cold here, but no rain yet ... feel so sorry for all those affected by the floods. Had an early start this morning as I had a hospital appointment for my annual diabetic eye screening. My eyes are still a bit 'blurry', so I won't be on here for long!

    Awful news about that poor osprey being shot ... haven't looked at the link yet, will wait until my eyes improve.

    Will catch up later ... take care.
