Morning .
I'm trying out my new glasses as requested. Still not too happy, the left eye is sharp and the right is bblluurryy.
Kitten news.
This morning he had come up with a new game in which we took turns . I started the ball rolling in his game, he patted it back . If I didn't pat it back again he would gently paw my hand . Taking it in turns !
Another new game we have given him are a couple of bigger soft toys. The fighting technique for this is different . Apparently you have to attack it and immediately leap backwards .

I saw a pair of Greenfinches at our bird feeder this morning .

Can I do my garden bird watch today instead of at the end of the month?
a. The weather is fine .
b. There are birds in the garden .
Why do we have to do it at the end of the month ? just to please the accountants?

It's the day before Black Bin day, today.

Is this for today, or will you write this in the future, as you are wont to do?

Consistency in methodology. In this manner, you get an accurate bird snapshot of Britain at each month's end.

Ah! But if I don't see any at the end of the month then it will be wrong .

But what will be wrong? It will depends on what question is being asked.

Rumours of my demise have been exaggerated. It's been a good year for mushroom-hunting, and I've managed to stay off the Death Caps. Find of the season is probably this mahoosive Wood Blewit.

Lots of shroom talk last few days.

This was my forest mushy selection on sourdough today on Thursday. I got them in the farm shop not the forest though. Some fine looking specimens and colours.

Overcast, breezy and chilly here chez Casa Reynard.

I have had a kitchen morning. I have prepared potatoes, carrots, sprouts and cauliflower for tonight to go alongside some the last of the turkey, and I have made potato, cheese and onion soup.

I will be having some of the soup for lunch shortly, along with some sausage rolls.

Just had to go answer the door. The batch of Short Circuit magazines I bought on the Bay of E have arrived!

I can't see a pic. Is it me, or did you forget to attach?
