I made a couple of cottage pies with some o that Linda McCartney vegetarian mince It doesn't taste half bad either Oh heck! Driving a Leccy car & eating vegetarian mince I'm turning into a tree hugger

Nutter that I am - got up at 3.55am this morning to watch live cricket from India.
It's now finished for the day - think I'll do myself a microwave curry and go back to bed for the afternoon

Plenty snow falling in heavy flurries but its not lying. Being so near the sea it rarely does.

Bored so started watching "It Chapter Two", lost interest. Frankly I preferred the earlier TV mini series.

I am going to have to fill the feeders at some point. All of them have dropped about 3" in the last two hours! Constant stream of various t1ts (Blue, Great, Coal), Robins, Chaffinches, occasional Nuthatch and Bullfinch and regularly a squadron of about a dozen Goldfinches descends. That's not to mention Blackbirds, Thrushes and Sparrows underneath picking up dropped seeds.

In the words of Lennon and McCartney

Hello Goodbye

Took the plunge and went out to fill the feeders, snow might not be lying but its bitterly bleein' cold. Sodz law, as soon as I went out the snow came on heavy again.

You've got the beast from the east take 2. We've got the cold snap with a bit of snow from the east.

I got a fresh supply of wild bird seed t'other week & some of those suet logs, they've really been eating the seed like crazy here too, I've only ever seen the bluetits on the suet logs though, no other birds
Just ordered another feeder & seed as well as the other stuff I wanted for the greenhouse from Wilkco's online. 5 quid for delivery is not worth me venturing out in this cold weather.
