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.

June tablet and haggis.......YUK!!!!
Good Evening all and June as Black jag said it, you do not have a "VERY" sweet tongue and if you do not then don't waste your money on a tablet. I have a sweet tongue but I find them far too sweet and I personally do not like them. I threw the one I tried in the bin.
Did not make the Cupcake cafe bar a long story and will have to wait until my partners son is not here one weekend but now unfortunately there will be no hot food and I was totally disappointed. He is at that age of 14 and I put it down to terrible teens. I do recall memories of me at that age lol.
Wendyb, I do not like whisky, malt distilled or any variety and maybe a crime to put a good whisky in a cake. Diana :)
Diana, I know the site is in America and cannot buy from there but will take a look to see what goodies are on offer.
For the first time in ages the Gabfest has not made me hungry or fancy a tipple lol
Wendyb now you are talking Haggis followed by Tablets "YUK" really laughing so much now
Wendyb, Not necessarily together, except in an order. I will definitely have to try some of both, but just the smallest piece of haggis, thank you just the same.
Hi B&B, just back from your first day at work afer a week of rest? Hope you didn't have a big overload your first day back.
June surprisingly ok but know the gremlins will be surfacing as the week goes on :)
I cannot believe I am so tired again after one day only and maybe put it down to the cold nights and mornings. As soon as bonfire night arrives the weather and frosts come. Bonfire night was freezing fog and a sharp frost on Sunday morning. The days have been good but had to scrape the ice of my car this morning and yesterday. I hate winter and just wish there had been a Summer here. I was so lucky had beautiful weather on Mull.
Stunning up here 13 degrees around Loch en Eilen today.
Haggis double YUK as vegetarian!!
All can you remember the fun we all had with the starting point from the Caravan club at Edinburgh saying on the dog walk, keep out live Haggis breeding. I seriously believed it.
The fun we had with that was brilliant and I still laugh about it.
Haggis do run around the hills in circles so they have 2 legs shorter than the others:)
We know, Wendyb. we met short legged haggis on our cyberspace teddy bear picnic last summer, video & all. You must stay with us & who knows, maybe we'll have another picnic next summer.
