Funnily enough he was walking past the cemetery when i saw him and the bird. Out of curiosity i looked it up to see how much macaws are. You can't call one 'second hand' like you would a car. No,they're 'pre-loved'. https://www.preloved.co.uk/classifieds/pets/birds/all/uk/macaw

'Pre-loved'? 🤔
I'm not sure that's much better than 'Used' if I'm honest.

Oo, oo! 'A House Through Time' is back on BBC2 tonight.
I find such social history fascinating.

Been out helping my wife gardening . Our niece dropped off some shrubberies yesterday . Must cross her off our Christmas list !

There were some lovely plants we had to dig up that have spread everywhere. Must put them on the endangered plant list along with Japanese Knotweed.

I think parrots and Macaws live a long long time.

Morning all. Another quiet day here, sunshine, light winds & coffee on the go. Just trying to decide whether to head north to the roads around Rendlesham & Tunstall or west to Elmsett & Wattisham on this afternoon's ride.

Those all sound like TV detectives.

In May the Fragrant MrsP and I took part in ‘virtual full marathon’ that is to run 26.2 miles in the month either in one go or over the month. We did it in aid of Blue Cross for Pets, raised a bit of cash.
TFMP did it in one day, I did it over eight days. We got our medals today.

Wish you lived closer, I'd be around borrowing that to accidently try to trim a piece of wood or something & accidently cut the fudgin neighbours conifers down they are 12ft tall & hang over our fence, I really hate them!

Would this help?

You could even keep 2M away.

It's a hot but slightly blustery day here chez Casa Reynard. I have been busy sorting photos this morning as I am judging in a virtual cat show.

I will be going to Tesco later as it's got to the point where I *need* stuff rather than *would like* stuff. If there is a queue, I shall stay in the car till it subsides. A book might be a good thing to take.

Update.... it was the wrong bin I put nextdoor!!!!

2 bins collected from the end of the drive, handles etc sprayed with bleach solution, one our house one delivered next door
