  1. steve. i never thought i'd see you on highsobiety...

     

    2. the "surfer" edition.... it's just got a board on the roof.

     

    3.. for all the pessimists,, as long as there's no elbow room, your left leg gets in the way of the hand brake and you can't lean the seat back i guess you'll be happy... :-)

  2. i was back at work 3 days after the op last year, combo op for CTS and triggering,, although that wasn't climbing,, and to be honest,, i couldn't really use the hand for a good month.. and by then all strength in my arm had gone,, seriously look at alternatives to the op for CTS as hind site is a wonderful thing,, they cured one problem and gave me another that is far worse than the carpel tunnel

  3. Good stuff Ady, but I've handled fallen fledglings which the parents have then reared?

    Not owls, mind.

     

    Looks lovely.

     

    took advice from an expert mark, also,,, this one had been in the dogs mouth,, so needed checking by the vet.. it wasnt going anywhere,,nearly four hours we left it in situ with no joy, and it was getting dark too,, the foxes were on the prowl,,

  4. so,, walking the dog, coming back down my drive,,, saw what at first looked like a hedge hog,,, got a bit closer,, then as i thought "it's an owl" (bare in mind it was 2pm so was not expecting an owl) nooka (the dog) pounced... so did the owl,, nooka caught it's wing, i bellowed "drop" which to my suprise,, she did,,,

     

    owl is fine,,, fed raw chicken, which it wolfed (no pun:biggrin:) down.. a friend who looks after birds for the police/ rspb etc etc lives v close,, he collected as my scent was on it so parents would abandon, couldnt "not touch" as it would have been flattened by farmers or taken by the foxes..

     

    so it's having a check up today and going to live with some other owls,,

  5. Just finished my ash dismantle, was the wedding good?

     

    I wasn't dissing the royals in my earlier post, I'm just not that bothered about dresses and flowers.

    would quite happily like to "bother" the sisters dress,,, and maybe check out her "flower" :thumbup:

  6. Having a Royal Family is what distinguishes us from countries such as America, in my view it is a reflection of our history, heritage and culture. Our Royals' history and extended Royal Family are what has made this country great in the past, and what it is today. And before anyone points out how it's somewhat going to the dogs recently, I believe that the attitude shown to the Royals in some of these posts, which is reflected in wider society, goes hand in hand with the general loss or respect for ourselves and others that todays society unfortunately displays.
