Mr K has driven my car which is stuck in second gear down to the mechanic who is going to fix it. Sounds expensive.

In other news our landline phone is making loud crackling noises like a bowl of Rice Crispies on steriods!

Other makes which make a similar sound may be available !

We had that with our BT line a few yr ago.. Cable only now.

Squirrel chewed the overhead wires.
BT naturally wanted to charge us.. They were told to do one.. Bury your cables or kill the squirrels..

I heard a Fiat 500 once drive past which was in 2nd gear ! It sounded horrendous !

Our lad use to take his game boy in and would be in there for ages

Umm, I have a large bookshelf in the bathroom, and another one in the downstairs little girls' room...

Quiet morning here chez Casa Reynard. Feeling tired rather than *bleurgh* which is an improvement.

I'll be intermittent online for the next few days - just the usual - so I'll see you all the other side.

Are you visiting Lancashire ?

I eventually managed to get out on my bike this afternoon and cycled down to Lacock via Reybridge. I stopped off at my brother's for a chat . Whilst there I saw a Swallow, the second one I'd seen today.
I cycled back via Reybridge again and spotted a Kestrel perched on a telegraph pole. I continued on my ride until I heard a bird calling out which made me stop and look around. I noticed a Buzzard flying high but couldn't associate the call with that bird. I scanned around for the bird which was still calling out. I eventually spotted it sitting high up in a pylon. I took some photos of it on maximum magnification. You will be able to see what it was from the blown up picture.
Seeing that bird really made my day.
The bird eventually flew off towards another pylon further away.

 

[Illaveago]

I forgot the pictures!

Black hole, my fundament! It's a doughnut. If you can't see that you need to get your Einsteins tested.

Just glanced at the house thermostat this morning...14.2 degrees.
