We have activity in bird box 1. Yesterday I heard rustling and tapping from within, now the parents are clearly making regular trips out for food. I haven't seen anyone near box 2 for days, though.

But that's because you're not (presumably, anyway) a narcissistic, absolute nut job.

Perhaps, like human gestation, they can be early or late? Mother nature doesn't always follow a strict timetable. Hopefully, it's just that and not that anything is wrong. We were only saying today that we haven't seen very much activity in either of our bird boxes the past couple of weeks and assumed they were in the incubation period.

Apart from today when I was quite happy for the oil money to defeat the trees

Driving through Loughborough today and a 'H' reg Austin mini metro pulled up at the lights. Haven't seen one of those in years, I assumed they'd all rusted away and died, many years ago.

Agreed. He's got 1 less than Robbie Savage, that's all kinds of wrong

We got rid of our compost bin as it didn't compost.

I loved it. Obviously depends on what you're looking for. I toured the old town and souks, a dhow boat tour, had high tea at the Burj and loved the miracle gardens. Studiously avoided the malls, Atlantis and all the very commercial stuff.

Namibia. An acquaintance is currently on safari there - https://gondwana-collection.com/accommodation/etosha-safari-lodge Although, more limiting for beaches. Prior to this they were on safari in South Africa, https://www.dulini.com/ after staying in Cape Town, which does have great beaches.

I have no words to do justice to the joy this man has brought into my life. Our greatest ever. I suspected this was coming, but I'm really not prepared for the reality. Although I've been tempted to leave early or not attend at times this season, I have continued. Only because of this man. I knew time was limited. JV didn't walk out on us, and I couldn't walk out on JV.

Because they haven't got a plan! Can't give clarity on the plan if you haven't got one

St Patrick's Day is an official Bank Holiday in NI. We did very well on BH days in NI, you get all the standard UK one's, plus St Patrick's and a few ROI ones. St George's Day, or as I call it, Grandad's birthday. Who was born in England, a WW1 veteran, and I'm happy to celebrate him, he was incidentally called George.

We have an update on our recycling provision for NWLDC. Still awaiting funding, but a revised plan has been agreed. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c2ew4j3x17vo Although, if we merge with another Council area, I'm not sure if it will go ahead, but I very much hope that it does.

Not enough floors for spoons toilets

WTAF! 'We look forward to being there'.....seriously?!

As we were arriving at the stadium, around 4.15pm\4.20pm we saw it. However, that was more because the plane had a noisy engine and alerted us.

Those cognitive tests were absolutely fine, clearly

Already happens if you have a private pension, any increase is negated by tax deductions.

So very sorry to read this, I can't imagine how stressful this must be for you and Mrs Para. Good to hear you have in person support from friends, and we are always here.

It's a lovely place, very relaxed. We did a week when we played there in the ICC, which I think was July. Aside from the 2 days with the few thousand city fans, it still wasn't that busy. We rented an apartment a bit out of town, which was pretty cost effective compared to the hotels. Having also sailed into Stockholm, I can highly recommend getting out into the archipelago.

Oh, lots of goals, they're all for the opposition though
