Am cracking on with the ironing. Actually not that much, but still prefer OH's shirts ironed, especially if not been in tumbler. That is on with some towels & daughter's scrubs to follow.
I have just looked in my bird book at a bullfinch. It definately isn't that as the wing markings are not that prominant., but had a browse over a couple of pages and I think they may be Linnets. It says the male is brown in winter. I will have to wait until they reappear to see. Of course they may well not be.
We also have nuthatches, very amusing birds, but like you, Jean haven't seen any for a couple of weeks.
Oh has come back with cheap lard so will make a seed cake later.
Perhaps 638 is a number of magical weirdness and anything can happen. Look out for mysterious happenings at 6.38 GMT and invisible cars with 638 on the reg. plate.

OH & daughter arrived back just as was about to put the box from new shredder, which came yesterday, into the wheely bin. We must keep it apparently.....
Just having 'cheats' version of cheese, & homemade chutney, on toast- you zap the whole in the microwave instead of heating up our electric grill. Daughter's trick, I do beans on toast that way, & have to admit the cheese version fine!
Off to investigate OMG completely forgotten what as daughter came in to say going out again.... help! J.
I had gravel as an anniversary present. Only one tonne though, Really good pressie.
I suggested a raised bed for Christmas but was poo-pooed so am buying one after Christmas as I still need one. That will make 4 beds. Argument against was about mowing grass, argument for was even more veg. We will still have loads of grass for him to mow!
I wondered Siskin as well , but my book says they are geeninsh. Will just have to wait fro them to visit.
Oh yes, the review. I enjoyed the play, my friend and I got a fit of the giggles when I laughed rather loudly at one line and no-one else did. But since a local hack wrote the review, this is all I keep hearing:
"Steve* is perfect as the straight man, Rev. David Thomas, satisfyingly obtuse and unaware of goings on about him"
*That's OH. I didn't think he was acting, really ;- D

Not that interesting, then.
Ask Prof. Brian Cox, I bet it's a woo-woo number.
