I may have said this before sometime, but Defra's Magic Map is very interesting.

My favourite car at the moment is my second hand Suzuki maxi scooter - well its kind of like a car, can get 3 bags of shopping under the seat and 2 more in the top box and it has a spacious glove box - and its a 400 so brings a smile twisting the grip on a clear stretch of road. I'm absolutely lovin...

If only there had been footage of the mating behaviour of Bower Birds broadcast in the 70's - the unfathomable rules of the game would have suddenly made perfectly natural sense! Having said that - an incredibly popular and stylish young lady once persuaded me to allow her to be transported to a par...

No, I never did! :D Apparently it was possible at full speed reverse then hard lock the steering (never quite daft enough to try that!) Hey, when your parents car had a smallish hole in the floor and you could see the road whizzing by - exciting stuff for kids! To be fair though, I think my Mum must...

"Hump back bridge! Wooahhh!!" :D My favourite car was the 2CV and the Dyane. Had the Dyane after I passed my test. There was grass growing out of the chassis and it was squashed by a Volvo that jumped the lights in Hillfields, Coventry. Literally, the front squashed flat and the Volvo didn't have a ...

Ages ago I rescued an old steel lamp shade from the dump thinking it might be useful. Was about to take it back but have been looking for a way of removing poo dust from under the bedding. Deep bed is one way, of course, but I like them to be able to scratch to the bottom to trim their nails. Had be...

Pants on the head - thats so funny! :D I have had some Chinese washable tartan masks with zip pockets for a couple of years now. Very useful for sweeping out the run and would have no problem wearing one if I thought it would make the slightest difference to risk but, what with keeping a respectful ...

I think I'll try a 127mm drill on the rear boundary wall as an experiment. If I can make a jig for it so its easy to do anywhere I think I may advertise a hedgehog hole making service. Signed the petition - a very good idea and will ask our ecologist what is happening already in planning. Do have to...

A couple of things have been buzzing around in my mind lately - corvids and hedgehogs... Around us there are lots of brick walls. There is a hedgehog that routinely comes down the pavement at night as the only way of connecting the route from several doors on the opposite side of the road to the eas...

As a footnote - the vaccine is given most often in the egg. One day old chicks can also be vaccinated. I think breeders often dont shoot themselves in the foot by saying that their stock isn't vaccinated - everyone is saying it so to not say it would look complacent - but none of them are! What does...
