Hi everyone. If you didn't check the last few pages of the previous week, it was very busy. I'm going to catch up all the latest posts after dinner.
Will try to see if another post sorts things out.
Hmm. Looks like we'll have to wait until next page for it to sort itself out. Off to bed.
I think you are right Annette.

Oh well might as well make some posts to test out the theory.
First lighter evening at Loch Garten tonight so the summer is on its way.
Lovely Fly, Patriciat. This page has gone peculiar. I think some posts are missing. Is it gremlins or my computer too hot? The weatherman got it wrong today - he underestimated again. It reached 40.8 C. If you hear sloshing noises as I type, that's because I have been drinking so much water. Hm, "no bad weather, only wrong clothes" doesn't apply in hot weather!!!! BTW I copied the Aussie Twelve Days of Christmas from an old Xmas card. While I was melting on the bus, I dreamt up a Scottish version. Nearly left the pipers in, but I thought of too many others.
On the twelve days of Christmas my true love sent to me . . .
Twelve Red Deer running / Eleven Squirrels scampering / Ten Salmon leaping / Nine Grey Seals lazing / Eight Wildcats spitting / Seven Otters swimming / Six Stags bellowing / Five Golden Eagles / Four Guillemots / Three Pine Martens / Two Capercaillie / And an Osprey in a Pine Tree.

Oh that is real interesting. I had not see the Aussie version before.
OK! Lets try to push this page to the end and see what happens. I seem to remember that last time it was because I had done something but can’t remember what it was!!! Not very helpful.
AQ – love your Australian Twelve Days – and now a Scottish version I see. Well done! Wish you a cooler day to come.
Annette – love your dollars in socks idea! Pleased you enjoyed your evening out – but as you say difficult to eat a balanced meal at these events, and then we come home and eat again – and we seem to cope less with erratic eating as we get older too!
Patriciat – what a beautiful dog Fly is – so sorry she has hurt another leg – but she has a month to recover for the next trials, so time to rest and then have some gentle exercise before getting into training again. Give her a hug from me! Did you take all four dogs on holiday to the Cairngorms?
Welcome back, Diane. I think your moderate earthquake must have measured much more than the 2.3 on Mull! Amazing how animals react before earthquakes, thunderstorms etc – if only they could speak …!
Good to see you back, we missed you, Caerann – hope all went well for you. Keep safe with that low temperature following the rain – ice more dangerous than snow. So sad about the Whooping Crane loss – there are enough threats in nature without people with guns hunting for the thrill of killing!
Home alone today – OH has gone to Dunblane to deliver a complicated database he has been compiling. He has been having fun because he was able to use computer knowledge which had been in the back of his brain since taking early retirement nine years ago! Although I normally depend on him being around, so long as everything is in place for me I can manage on my own through the daytime, so I actually enjoy the independence.
Ospreys Rule OK, but Goldfinches come a close second!
Like the new slant on 12 days of Christmas Tiger.
