I washed and sterilised the bird feeder this morning as it was getting a bit of a mess.

I do hope the birdies like the smell of Jeyes fluid!

Could be why you don't get many at times.

Morning from a dull and damp Manchesterland. Needed to order another 'large' chainring for the FS this morning - had some bad shifts in horrendous conditions on Thursday night, and the chain ring is looking rather worn (running new chain, cassette and inner ring). Not 'hooked. but wearing rather 'thin'. That's the second in less than 12 months. Does show I'm riding it lots !

There are advantages to freewheeling a lot .

Usually, after I've cleaned and replenished it, it attracts loads of birds. Goldfinches and Tits in particular.

Have you ever wondered how daft Wood Pigeons are ? This morning I spotted a pair in my garden, one was on our clothes line and the other was on our bird feeder . From our french windows I waved at them, it's usually enough to get them moving but not today . I went outside and clapped, this also usually sends them scattering ! No ! I ran towards them in the end, finally one spotted me as I got close and flew off whilst the other remained on the feeder. I eventually tapped it on the back with my hand! It looked at me and thought that it had better get moving .

I went for a ride with my friend this morning despite it being grey and overcast . We did just over 11 miles. It got a bit chilly and damp half way round and I was glad to get back home to warm up .

It's a good test of your clothes line!

Cool, grey and very soggy here chez Casa Reynard.

My get up and go has gotten up and buggered off. I do have to go and run some errands though, so I'll get those out of the way and then curl up with the snooker on the telly for the rest of the afternoon.

Where ever it is, your get up and go has had a secret assignation with mine.

Little Miss P has found herself a part time job,It's only three weeks at Boots the chemist.But after knock back after knock back,she has finally opened a door.There is a faint chance in Jan she might be asked to stop on.This is not what she went to Uni for,but it gives her a chance to work.

Come on BBC get your act together ! The sound on Pointless went quiet and I could hear the people in the background directing operations.
