Dove re pigeon... and thanks for the heads-up re the (hopefully non-resident) idiots on the forum.
I was distinctly unimpressed when I went into the compost area this afternoon, to find some joker had dumped a dead Christmas tree and a load of hedge clippings over the wall into my garden. Now I'll have to chop his rubbish, bag it and take it to the skip.
But on a positive note, I finished decanting "rough" compost into a small bin to continue rotting down for next year, and mended the big bin ready for this year's offerings.
Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.
Just back from choir practice and had a little bit of excitement as we got home...a poor little lamb was trapped in a wire fence near my house and in trying to pull itself free the wire around it's neck was getting tighter and tighter. My friend hopped over the far side of the fence (she was a bit quicker in assessing the situation than me I think) and tried to unravel the wire from it's neck whilst I got the less pleasant job of pulling it backwards through the wire by it's very smelly bottom. Seems to be an animal tales evening on here tonight and as always with animals a lot of poo involved.
Cheeky blighters Liri dumping their stuff, can't believe what some people dare do.
Scones with jam on Jimmy, that's another thing on my to do list whilst in the UK next week.
Obelisk, the outcome of our role playing regarding Paris and traffic was that it needed to be discussed for at least another 10 years before anyone could make a decision - we might all be speaking fluent French by then too - maybe.
Good night all, think I might need a shower before bed, the smell of sheep poo seems to be lingering.

Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Just as well it was a pigeon and not a Crow. There'd be no cat left!
Has anyone else received a PM from one of those idiots who were posting inane tosh on the forum last night?
I advise you not to open the link.
Just copy it to Nora and she'll deal with it in the morning.

Ooh err Dove - to the pigeon and the PMs
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
They must think we're idiots Fairy - thinking we'd click on a link they'd sent us
And as for the pigeon .......... well, you know what my distant rellies are like - gatecrashing every party, squatting in seaside cottages

Hope your son didn't have too much trouble getting rid of the pidgeon, Dove.
And not too much poop to clear up!

Evening all,
