A belated Yuletide blessing to you all. I've been uncomputerised for a bit, on purpose, since I've been away. I got up ready to view the dawn on the solstice, but since I was in Cambridge rather than bonny Scotland and since I'm getting old and stupid I missed the dawn, there is a 45 minute differen...
I've been up to my neck in all sorts of jobs recently that I've neglected my friends here. Sorry Guys! I've noticed Tylluan has been keeping things going with most of the facts- thank you my Lady.

Excellent. Hazel, you confirm my thoughts about crows -there was some discussion earlier in this topic - ther...
Must confess that when my old pals with four legs have moved on, as I consign them to mother earth I wish them a safe journey and ask them to wait for me. I like to believe that when my old friends and I meet again we will be able to roam the forests and woodlands of the Summerlands. It is a comfort...
