Some sad news. Earlier in the year I noticed that a pair of white doves seemed to perch on our roof . A bit later in the year my wife found an egg lying on our front path. It seems as though the pair thought that making a nest underneath our solar panels would be an ideal place . Recently we haven't seen the pair around and had assumed that they had gone back to their loft . Yesterday as I was waiting for my friends to go on our bike ride I noticed one dove on our roof looking lost . This morning my wife spotted a dead white dove underneath the solar panels !

I have just found a smallish Hedgehog on our front path between 2 flower pots . I tried to pick it up but it's spikes ain't half sharp! We have put it in our cat box with some food and water for now .

Hedgehog news!
My wife has taken to a Hedgehog rescue place in Corsham as she was worried about its breathing . Sort of snoring .
Can I have a rest now ? Dead dove in our gutter and a Hedgehog hiding in the flower pots !

The buyers of MIL's house have started playing games. Surveyor has been round and quoted lots of silly prices for areas where there may be potential damp. There isn't any damp. Disabled ramp too close to air brick/damp course, down pipe from conservatory drains onto the garden, some frost damage to bricks (50 year old house). Also substantial crack in ceiling in hall. MrsF went round and removed the hallway ceiling wallpaper. The crack was 1mm. The crack was actually the wall paper coming off at the join.
They are wanting another £10k-£15k off.
Then arrives today that the land the house is built on could be contaminated. Its been there 50 flipping years, in the same family. We've never heard such rubbish. Again they are wanting an indemnity policy taking out by my wife/her sisters.
I have a feeling 'we' may pull the sale as we don't want the hassle. We can't answer some of the questions.
The house was priced to sell and we even dropped it for the buyer. I suspect the market unrest is causing all this.

Looks like it's finally going to cool down here from next week.
Wettest June, hottest July, August as normal, hottest September and the start of October. It's been blistering this Summer for most of the time.

No need for that with my lovely mechanical watches. Either wind them up or give them a quick shake and Bob's your uncle...
Today's watch is a mid 1960s Girrard Perregaux gyromatic.
Sadly mine need work & the price was rather high.

How could you lick her forehead.......you can't see it for her hair!
She was talking to Dermot O'Leary at the time
Pull it my mate did.He had his own small building company.His mother had died.He had kept the place together during her lifetime,so right near the end the buyers staryed playing silly buggets like yours seem to do.So he asked for an on site meeting everybody.He listened then shut them down and pulled out of the sale,a few months later put it back up forty grand more and sold it no problems.My mate did think agent and buyer were in cahoots.So you stick to your guns.
I wish to confess,the bikes have been cleaned and wrapped up for winter.This wuss of a fair weather cyclist has finished for 2022.At least i got out after the operations in April,but sadly catching up with decorating and gardening took its toll on my time.So 2023 is going to be my cycling time.Bring it on.
