No he didn't, just covering the tracks.

Reform not openly racist enough?

Goid luck. I think I've done 100 walking in a 10 k square three times. Twice at Cley (one of those in winter) and once on my localnpatch in Dorset. The latter was one of my favourite ever days birding.

Also hope that you manage to either get re-enthused with your patch or move to a better one. I've had times in the past when I've fallen out of love with local birding when being inland or not having a walkable local patch.

I really enjoy reading your stuff as a (mostly) reformed twitcher. One of the most refreshing (and brave) things is your attitude of admitting and owning mistakes. Too many people try to cover their tracks or try to bluster their way out of it.

Luckily haven't had that and the majority of kids are really nice and just taking one. Only one or two grasping little shites grabbing handfuls.

I'm o e of the unlucky ones who bought a handset with them. So far, no idea of how the split works with regards to handset and contract. Expect I'm stuck with them for the duration.

We live on terraced streets, two full tubs have just gone in about 90 minutes. I've seen parents driving over and dropping their kids off.

I hope there's a record of the name of every one of these thugs. And enough rope.

Where's the fun in that! I hope to not repeat last year's, when my return went in at 23:59:53 on 31st January when I had gastric flu and a temperature of 39.

Good to see the youngsters catching up.

Nothing new under the sun. St Methodius giving St Cyril the 'bunny ears' treatment on Charles Bridge Prague.

Sculpture of St Methodius blessing St Cyril, although from the angle the picture is taken it looks like the 'bunny ears' gesture that people do unknowingly behind somebody's head.

I knew she reminded me of somebody.

Chancellor of the Exchequer Rachel Reeves.

We are talking about Saville's mate though.

A time of joy and happiness for everybody. Apart from these two obviously.

Whenever I look up an insect online, the suggested searches are 'does x species bite', 'how do I get rid of x species'. It's reminiscent of the scene in Brave New World where the babies get an electric shock when shown a rose. Everything natural must have negative associations.
