[Gravity Aided]

I just noticed a pair of Crows sat out in a playing field with their wings spread out backwards sitting like a Vulcan with its nose in the air. I first wondered what they were doing, sunning themselves? But then I wondered if they had found an ants nests and were doing what Jays do.

They were doing that here, today, as well. I think it may be the heat. Wind was abaft starboard quarter.

For you or them?

I'm after some advice .... what is the best method to tempt a meal worm out of a battery charger.... and no don't ask why it's in there! It's not in view.... but was seen going in!

I was just reading a bit about them, when it finally gets bored it will either find its own way out of will turn into a beetle and then do likewise.
Is there a way you can take the off or is it s sealed unit?

I was just watching a news feature on Breakfast TV just now about women in the armed forces. I hadn't taken much in the first time they showed it but on the second showing things started to click into place. The little old lady, sorry! being featured, her voice rang a bell and then my face recognition clicked in[ loosely termed my brain]. And finally they mentioned her name Barbara Hurman. I knew her many years ago when I was doing archaeological illustration. We used to meet at our AGM's, I think she was working for the British Museum at the time.
It is nice to see people again.

Sorry Hoppy, I've been asleep.

It's Husavik. That schooner in the front left is the one that will take us whale watching in a couple of hours.

Just relaxing!
It's typical though, he had both front paws straight up, reach for the camera and he moves.
We were worried last night as we hadn't seen him all evening. I whistled for him, looked in the garage, shed, greenhouse, out the front and even to see if he had been locked in a room. Nothing! I was starting to feel a bit worried and then he just wandered round to the back door as if nothing was wrong.
He must have been having too much fun with his friend next door.

I did wilt!!

Does anyone else do lacklustre riding between bits of shade when it's like this? I find it's too much effort to go fast.... unfortunately I have Pilates and Zumba tonight.... I'm going to be bright red!

I recommend our towpath. It may be rather bumpy but there are trees overhead providing shade.
