I'm happy to report though , plenty of Coal Tits, Blue Tits, Nuthatches, Spotted Woodpeckers, and Tree Creepers.
And that's what its all about, trying to get things balanced.
Keep up the good work, August is always quiet.

Travelling to work last night, heading south on a dual carriageway, and then 'driving miss daisy' decides to drive towards me and the other motorists. I captured it all on my dashcam and the footage has now been forwarded to Operation Snap (Police)
You just reminded me, this happened to me a couple of weeks ago, bit of fog on my drive home, I turned at the roundabout and a car went past me!! I was gob smacked, i imagined they had pulled out onto the wrong side because of the fog, but had there been another car on the inside lane chances are I'd have been going head to head with them🤬

can't believe that?? It seems crazy and they probably do it every week and get away with it.
At this late stage they probably know you don't want anything going wrong, but hit the phones bound to be someone else available, I'd rather drive a few hours to pick up a Luton for the weekend than get bent over.

I saw bits and pieces, I'd rather have hard warm up games than 50- nils, they show you far more about your squad.

Wide.
I tried loads on a few weeks ago, I've got wide feet, I was convinced the majority were sized wrong they were so tight.
same with football boots, I lost one a few weeks ago so had to buy new boots, find some that fit was a nightmare, it's like my feet have spread out over the years.

I bought a pair of Berghaus recently, sort of between a trainer and walking shoe, really comfy and gortex, £70

In the airports they generally have several stands where you help yourself to the Sun and sometimes other papers.
Yes, its to boost circulation figures so they can attract more advertisers at a higher cost.
Annoys me as people pick one up. Scan it briefly, then bin it or leave it lying on the floor. Not exactly enviromentally friendly.
we flew from Manchester last week there was the sun, and I think the Times? We scanned the Sun, I imagined the airport gets them cheap and the papers get their advertising seen??

Well today I’ve been at a busy riding school
heaving with kids ages from 5 to 12
probably 75 in total
so in true PW style I did a survey 😊
who wants to have there own pony ?
All of them (no surprise)
than I asked them to choose the one they wanted
first place ....maple (guess it’s culor )
2nd boffin grey
3rd spirit/meg bay
absolutely none of them wanted humbug coincidentally the only one for sale
then I asked the parents/grandparents
who unanimously decided that riding school was the best place as there mixing with like minded kids and it’s cheap child minding drop them off a hour early and let them groom the horses picking them up hours after their ride is finished
i tend to agree as most weren’t capable of doing the basics and after talking to the stable girls we agreed 10 years old was about the earliest they would get a kid it’s own pony as the younger ones grow out of them to fast
this yard does a have a pony for a week
its yours and you have to do everything (under supervision) For the whole week a bit of a shock for some of them
i then asked all the kids which was the best horse in the yard
and to think very carefully before they answered 😊😉
the winner 👍😊
That sounds spot on, And i showed the picture to my daughter, it got a massive gasp!! Winner winner
two horses, no fuss no hassle 😁

This has been one of the funniest and informative threads for a while.

These are warm up games for the World Cup that starts in about a month.
My bad, i thought it was November for some reason 😣

What was the international in aid of?? Given the season hasn't started yet I'd have thought both teams would be very rusty. Never understood the point of pointless internationals.

Would you look what's happened, I cant get on line for a few days while sunning myself by the pool and Bruno is spending money😅😅
Sounds like your going to enjoy your new toy, have you ordered any of the vicious looking pellets yet? Ones with the cross?
-
check your down pipes aren't blocked or gutters leaking, they could be adding to the problem.

hello, the above was my first PCP many years ago, mine was multi shot, still around the 6.5llb mark, about the same as a AA classic, the Ultra comes out at 6llb, a lighter PCP is the FX verminator at 5.3 llb, i cannot think of any lighter PCPs,
What about the Titan bearcat?
Maybe even a crossman catcher type seeing as your only shooting to 20 yards as you say?

Those yellow flowers are Heleniums which bees love.
As far as your Buddleia is concerned, when the flower on the leading shoot dies off cut the shoot off to the next pair of shoots and this secondary growth should flower within a month thus extending the length of time the butterflies can benefit.
Thanks for that, the Heleniums were in when we moved in, we cut them back to the ground every year and they regrow every time, a cracking perennial, little effort maximum benefit.

This border has a buddleia in it as well just past the seat, it's damp out now but it's normally crawling with bees butterflies and other insects.

I'd never heard of Toddbrook until this happened, there will probably be people who want to go there now because of what they've seen, so it may well have put them on the map?

Even carrying the AA classic to the feeding stations got my ticker pumping hard these days and I often have to stop to catch my breath - it's getting so bad that I often simply don't go which is frustrating. Found out today that the gun is actually out of stock and the new ones are not due for about a month when the price will. most likely, rise. So now I'm looking around for anything that takes my fancy - Hortitsia floats my boat but out of stock everywhere and as heavy as the S400 so the search continues.
I'll say this knowing it's going to get a reaction, see if Stu can sort you a little BSA out😯😯 small light weight, just what you need, tin hat on 😉

On the news tonight they were apparently worried about the loss of income because the town has been shut?
Don't get it, it's been what a week? They were talking about business rates being waved and small businesses struggling, they'd be struggling more if the damn had been allowed to burst.

some of the automotive places I've worked at machine to smaller tolerances than aerospace, this depends on the parts obviously and is so that every part is pretty much identical.
