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.

Daughter#2 eats veggie Haggis - do they grow on trees - or do they have haggis-hounds (like truffle hounds) to seek them out in the forest?
Ospreys Rule OK, but Goldfinches come a close second!
I've had vegetarian Haggis, OG. I liked it. :-)
June, see you look to be planning next years picnic,this years was such fun we must do it again.
Hi lowery, I think we must have next year's picnic when the heather is in bloom, or maybe on a beach somewhere, but that's a long way off. Right now we have our November music nite to plan. We need to decide on a topic, among other things.
Hi everyone..
I see the gabbers are growing in number.. :-)
The first ever Black Jag tablet ... is a big hit.. all that have tasted it say it's good stuff.
I took a little bit to the dentist this morning, he tried it, smiled, said it was nice.. then just shook his head...
Haggis.. love it.. add a wee dram to it (a blend)
Veggie haggis.. well it's good, but it's not right..
All for one and one for all.
Hi black jaguar,you did share tablet then.
Yes June awaiting next topic for music night.
Oh yes Lowry,
I've shared it around, there is still some on the tray too...
Can't eat too much as it is so sweet and the calorie content is through the roof...but it could easily be addictive.
I really enjoyed the last music night...
June is there a list of topics?
I recall musicals, and national songs being mentioned..
Have you all seen the "magical" firework display that Oban put on the other night.

A technical failure cased them all to fire at roughly the same time... lol
Original Goldfish veggie Haggis, maybe they do grow on trees and laughing so much, haggis sounds (like truffle hounds) barking mad lol
black jaguar yes saw the firework display at Oban,glad you didn't eat all the tablet.
B&B calm down now you'll never sleep.
Night night all.
