October has come and gone and once again it is time to open a new thread for the Gabfest.. During October we did finish the movie WILD MOUNTAIN THYME, complete with musical score, as planned. We launched it into distribution with its own World Premier. The Stars and most of the Supporting Cast were there appropriately dressed for their glitzy walk down the red carpet. Unfortunately co-stars EJ & ODEN and family were unable to attend as they are all currently on migration to Africa. Keith surprised us with some very interesting bird & wildlife reports direct from the Sahara Dessert and from his own equatorial Island in the Sun. His on-the-spot factual reports helped us to understand the dangers our osprey face once they complete their long hazardous journey. Our first music night was a smashing success that left everyone eager for the second.

Then we ended the month with a wonderfully thoughtful and caring discussion of the benefits or possible harm of the tracking of osprey and other birds. NOVEMBER will bring continued reports and DISCUSSIONS of our own “Special Three“, Tore, Bynack and Rothes who have arrived safely in Africa. We will be watching especially for news of Bynack who has been in an area that seems to be potentially dangerous. We will be watching also for updates of young Ozwold who was VERY reluctant to leave Bonnie Scotland, but is finally taking a stopover in Spain where Roy Dennis says he can safely winter. So, will Ozwold stay in Spain? or will he move south?, on his own unique time schedule? We will also be following the adventures and misadventures of other tagged osprey, including Einion who had us holding our breath while he made a huge circle over the Atlantic, his siblings from the Dyfi nest and others that may come to our attention. All this and much more is discussed on the Gabfest. We expect to have The Second Gabfest Music Night toward the end of the month. The theme is yet to be discussed & determined. This is the Freedom Forum, where fun, fact and fantasy combine to make a very unique thread. So come on in and chat a while with us. Our fire is bright and the latch is always open.

You gave us all a lot of pleasure.
All for one and one for all.
Going to bed all and black jag I wish it was conclusive about Leri but it is not and something June did say the other night, I would like to know for definate.

Good night B&B..

Hope you had a good day, did you manage to get to the cake shop?
Goodnight all
I'm off to bed
Sad that Leri has passed away...:..-)
We can only hope for our other birds..
God speed bonny birds... I'm with you...X
What a wonderful thread Gabfest is. I was sad about Leri & worried about Keith & went grocery shopping & bought too much & spent too much (as always), came back straight to the PC and you have got me chuckling about tablet recipes & whiskey spellings, counting feet & multiplying wings (think you're supposed to divide wings) and other nonsense. Now I feel better, but still praying for Keith. I love y'all!
THERE IS ONLY ONE WHISKY (SCOTISH)
Sunshine, you're up late - again. I've been wondering, did your family get away on their
travels and are you taking good care of their house?
JUNE - they are in NEW ZEALAND now.. yes looking after their house and paying the bills-. they should be back on 8-12-2011
Good morning all,
Sunshine, lucky people... New Zealand, it's comming into summer there... wish it was me.
June...you're right, the gabfest & the Gabbers or maybe gabbees, do have a good laugh,
it's a nice place to come to.
