    Good morning all 😊 ☕️ 
    Another much milder morning …

    Good morning!

    Mild here too @Dovefromabove but a steely grey sky with the promise of rain.

    Good dose of sinusitis today so sticking close to the sofa and the kettle!!  

    You are really enjoying that moggy @Pat E   That's nice.

    Have a pleasant day everyone.

    Morning all.

    I'm in Eastbourne, stayed the night with OH's daughter and family. The ferry crossing was OK, calm sea, took 4 hours then over 1 hour to get off and leave Newhaven. Off to Norfolk after breakfast.

    Hi all

    Glad you arrived safely @Busy-Lizzie
    Woke up to a bit of a commotion outside, 3 Mandarin ducks by the pond fighting.

    That sounds like very exotic fisticuffs @punkdoc .... seems theirs something in the air ... I dreamt about flamingoes  B) In my dream they use their feet as if they're climbing stairs when they take off from the ground  :o

    Have a good trip up here @Busy-Lizzie :D

    I'm guessing I know what the disagreement was about  :D

    I think you are probably right, @raisingirl

    Lovely ducks @punkdoc.  We were at Pensthorpe Natural Park just before lockdown.  Lots and lots of ducks there.  
    I don't know why but my heart skips a beat when I see seedlings popping up.  My first sowings are all pricked out now and will need to move into the blowaway soon so I can get the second batch sown.  For some reason I always think its best to sow seeds when the moon is waxing.  Superstition?

    Those ducks are really pretty, Punkdoc. I don’t know if we get them in Australia.  Our local ducks are much less colourful.
