I saw that one Twitter. Slightly worrying

We have just come back from the Tall Ships races at Hartlepool, and up into Northumberland by Long Nanny, the sea and beaches were awash with dead gulls and terns, and there were many terns at nest sites obviously suffering with flu. You just hope the chicks manage to fledge Several gull...

Somehow we suspected it all along. Meet our new overlords

OH did manage to strike up a conversation via Twitter with the Strikemaster display pilot. it was after she took some really good pics of it going over the house when it is based at North Weald for airshows, plus a good video of the display at Eastbourne, and now he makes sure to go over the...

We were lucky enough last week to have the C-130J Hercules go over us on their final flight. OH was staking out the garden and flight tracker. We thought they would be north of us, but we got them straight across

We went to a couple of airfield museums yesterday, and stopped at Wickham Market, Suffolk, lovely little town. Thought i would share a couple of pics with you all. it was lovely to hear the church bells pealing here and at Parham, plus swifts screaming in and out of the houses

The first train down wasn't until after 10.30, so it was a mad run along the pier, Ruth is way fitter than me she made it down there...

My sentiments also

No, but I am good at cross stitch

I found out when given a book of sayings and country lore and what they really mean. It was a fascinating book

One of our post boxes as you get into town. Looking very regal

Must take my hens down to the neighbour's pigs for some exercise:D

Well our lady at Glaslyn has a name Elen named after a nearby mountain, and she has celebrated by surprising everyone by laying her 1st egg at 10.37

OH God hope my lot don't see this, they may want one:D

It is all looking good, and they are looking very comfortable with each other. I did see her today bring back what looked like half a cricket pitch to line the nest. Perhaps we should christen her Dame Nellie, as her vocal range could match any soprano at the Royal Opera House. A nice Welsh...
