gonna have to up my game

OOOOH

I went outside today with a handful of sunflower seeds and peanuts and was covered in coal tits for 20 minutes. That is The Business. Cannot convey my utter delight. Nothing else matters more than their cold feet gripping my fingers and landing and taking off again. Wishing you a similar moment x

why yes I have just poured myself an early Tuesday glass of wine what of it?

(the things I'm not telling you here ... honestly, it will be worth waiting for. legally. and I'm not even giving the Reith lectures)

oh god - no sacrificial frogs for me thank you

No. NO. That way lies defeat. *brushes Zig vigorously outside*

I think if it got near enough to eat off my hand, it would eat my hand.

*sets up a negative pressure clean room system*

All will be well. Apart from your egg, which will be rock hard.

You are going to have to fix that.

True. I'll get the dehumidifier on it later.

Truth.

Towards the end, both mine (nearly/just past 20) loved to be hand-fed prawns. Lots of water in them, so helpful to combat dehydration if they think drinking is too much. Electric warming mat in their bed was a big hit too.

It took my rickety bridge years ago - my first November when I'd just moved in. I know its ways now. All good.

It, like the Dude, abides.

It's still rising. More to melt.

I know my audience.
