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.

Ah, I can see it now: a week before the supper dance: Susan is coaxing to go, Keith is resisting, Susan is more insistant, Keith gives in with a surly "if you insist", while all the time he has the tickets in his pocket, has already checked his kilts outfit to make sure every item is in proper wearing order and can't wait for a bit of toe-tapping.
But of course after years of marriage, they both understand the routine well.
Seriously, Keith & Susan, have a good time. But Keith, not TOO good. Remember you just got out of the hospital.
sugar Egyptian geese If I am right were brought over from I cannot remember where and they have stuck mainly to Norfolk. I will look it up "Sunshine" and annoyed I cannot remember. I do think my memory is not to bad though lol
Do you remember the geese laying eggs on the Osprey Nest at Manton Bay this year.
Some call the two Ospreys Romeo and Juliet. Romeo seemed too quiet and just watched but as soon as Juliet came back, there was no way they were staying and they were sent off packing. I did feel a little sorry for them.
sugar, good intentions but still here but as soon as Strictly comes on I am off :)
June I am with you and hope Keith takes it easy and yes fantastic you are out in all your refinery and I know you are joking about the malt and hope so :)
I'm heading off everyone, not feeling to good tonight.

Black jag hope you feel better soon.
I agree with my Gabfest friends,let's see pics of Keith and black jag in their kilts.
They're both photographers so no excuses of not having a photo available. Well, it is the photographers themselves we want photos of, but I'm sure that's just a minor problem.
