Sorry Mr Dirk.
Been up sine 06.15 but just chilling out while listening to Tony with SoTS.
I am sure there is frost on the grass ??
Just been watching a Blackbird 'stealing' bits from my lawn.......obviously nest building somewhere close. Nice to watch him.
Daughter and SiL coming later and staying over.....they are good company.
They are bringing 2 of their 3 dogs. They are nice friendly dogs and I am getting used to them.

@welsh dragon ....are you hiding your ancestry from us ^_^
Just read this on wickopedia.

The word "cooee" originates from the Dharug language of Aboriginal Australians in the Sydney area. The call was used by Aboriginal people to communicate with another person at a distance. 'Coo-ee' was typically expressed as a long loud call ending on a shrill rising inflection on the 'ee'.

Who knows. Maybe 10 or 20 thousand years ago :laugh:
