    Funny thing about all the little animals,most people miss them. If you sit still and just watch, you find all sorts. Same in the garden. Lots of tiny things that most people never see.

    The first time  you spot a seahorses in the wild, you get really excited,then you just have to look for more incredible creatures.  Hairy ghost pipefish look just like bits of floating seaweed. Painted frogfish look like sponges.

    There's a lot of weird and wonderful stuff out there.

    Fidget the film was amazing, my second born is off to Indonesia tomorrow backpacking with boyfriend.  It looks like shes in for a treat.  I might see her today so I can show her the film.

    Well folks, it looks like the plans for Friday are moving along.  If you need me to bring anything else just let me know.

    Ive managed to do a bit of gardening this morning just a bit of a tidy up with the hoe.  Hubby isnt best pleased but I really am going stir crazy.  Off to the hospital in a mo.  Mum is having  a scan and I thought she would be less worried if I was around.

    Catch up with you all later.

    Been looking up grasses because I'm sure that 2 rapidly growing grasses in the veggie garden are grown here for dairy cattle, probably in my horses' hay. Got out another barrow load this morning.

    This is what I found about the one I identified, scary,  "Ability to spread: C. dactylon spreads rapidly by rhizomes and stolons, and also by seed. It can spread over 2 m/month during the growing season, a single plant forming a dense sward up to 25 m across in 2.5 years.

    Weed potential: It is difficult to eradicate with chemicals or cultivation, and can become a serious weed in cultivated land. Declared weed in over 80 countries"

    The other grass I have is bigger and worse, may be a type of sorghum;
