We have been hearing robins in the yard early in the morning. Also saw a tit of some sort; too far away to judge what sort, but the way it hung from a branch was very titmouse like. Heard a couple of ...

You could of course try real smoke. Clean sawdust isn't too difficult to get hold of. Just have to know what it comes from.

We don't seem to have any robins around the yard still. Not sure why; avian flu, otherwise engaged, too many birds of prey?

Beech is shallow rooted, and we sometimes get them falling in the woods. ...

An interesting idea, and look forward to hearing more about the trials. The only thing in that report that I found disturbing was that this ship was used to ferry partially completed vehicles from Eur ...

Sorry, but their report is riddled with errors. Woodland is not generally certified as sustainably managed, but the FC rules mean that in effect it is. I regret to say that Wildlife Trusts are not the ...

I assume these statements made in odd places and to odd people get round the ONS rules on fact and figure checking. DIL had to do that for a while some time ago.

Will not bother to send it to my MP ...

Not so much that, more no sense of danger and wandered under a car wheels. If a car hadn't got it I suspect a bird of prey would have done.

Certainly agree about Airb&b and other short term letting systems. They somehow get round the safety rules too, which is of great importance.

Our hybrid car is interesting in electric mode; ge ...

I am afraid we are one pigeon less here too. Think it was a very young one, not really properly fledged. It was walking around in the road and didn't even try to fly away, just walked in front of a ca ...

I have given up writing to my MP because she is useless. At least better than son's MP who is Bravermann (Suella de Ville as I prefer to call her).

As for housing being permitted where there is loc ...

Yes, I get the impression that sails these days are more of a hybrid approach than usual power. Of course if the ship is going in the right direction and can pick up the trade winds when they are blow ...

This LEZ was imposed by the Government because the air quality in that part of the city was poor. It is not a ULEZ, as it affects only certain vehicles. The port is the actual cause of the problem and ...
