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.

Time for bed now...
Nos Da Sandra (got your facebook post) :-)
Good night all, thanks for the chat.. great fun again.
Black jag.
All for one and one for all.
lol Black Jag! :-)
If nothing goes right, go left! :-)
BJ that is beautiful and I can see the fisherman :) I really wished I had captured that sunset at Durness as it was amazing and I should take photographs as would love to share. The moon was floating on the water and do not ever expect to see anything like that again.
I must take my dog out as I am an hr late as normally take him out at 9pm.
Lovely photograph and thank you
I've caught up with reading back pages and I must say (probably to myself as it seems I just missed the crowd) that I'm well impressed with Black Jags kilt AND with the young man wearing them.Very nice plaid. Thanks for the posting, Jag.
June it has been busy tonight and I did say before Black jag does look dapper in his kilt that fits perfectly :) I wish like sugar they were shorter and could see the knees even if knobbly
Some pictures, I think, do show a kilt just above the knee. Yes, those are nice.
So much on here tonight, haven't really had time to absorb. I have enjoyed the pictures.
June I do not know how you will catch up as I have been on here and missed posts lol.
Sunshine has posted and the only reason I know is I have been looking back.
Sunshine, Luss is lovely and I know you have mentioned the Red Squirrel site at Glencoe before and I have stayed there with the little Bambi but the migies oh my goodness I am still scratching.
Jim did tell me a story when he was on Skye a big black cloud came across and it was migies. Thank goodness I have never seen anything like that and never want to. There were some Germans on the site I was talking about earlier and they run to the pub and would not come out. Jim told them to go there and when he went in he was asked was it you that sent them here they never even bought a drink but hiding and would not leave lol and do not blame them.
Sandra that tartan is blinding me lol
Hi you two...
I'm too warm again, a cool drink to see if that helps..
B&B I burst out laughing at your post above..lol
