S-Westerly Posted June 7, 2023 Author Share Posted June 7, 2023 (edited) 8 hours ago, goat said: Morning. Rabbit with myxomatosis in the garden this morning. Always a cheery site. Last time I dealt with one was whilst running a corporate volunteer day on a country park. They weren't too cheery to see it go to heaven and all scattered again when I chucked it on the pile of burning bramble to get rid of it. Still, I'm sure it gave them a memorable day. Never a pretty sight when in advanced stages. Used to see a lot when I lived in Weardale but not so much down here, not for a few years in fact.

Would get a stream of members of the public asking if we knew there were sick rabbits and what we were doing about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That does sound fun. I'll be in a woodland being eaten alive by mosquitos and shredding my legs on bramble. Also fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy Old Git Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 Mornininggg All. Today will be mainly doing a volunteer hospital run, visit to the chiropractor (aka Torquemada), attend a meeting of the Garden Club, wiring up the Dalek Voice Changer I have built, fitting new car mats, researching 'naughty' signs for Tagging, starting on the annual taxation assessment, and the usual life living events of the day. It may (may) be summer tomorrow (apparently) so I will be able to try out my new bike boots!. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 Well I've lathered up the Willmas nordic summer insect repellent, found a patch with no bramble and it's rather nice. Chiffchaff singing. Very pleasant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 Currently doing some online driver awareness training for work. Don't put rum on your cornflakes, don't pull drivers out of their car to kill them blah blah blah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're ticking a box. Got to do another with rospa in September, which I suspect will be more useful than watching a bloke on a video say stick to speed limits, wear your seat belt.

If it`s an informal chat why can`t he take you for a pint and discuss it ? Seriously good luck if it`s something you want.

Bender Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 Results in from scan on suspected hernia, yes it's a hernia, could have saved them the expense and drew a circle but no they wouldn't go with my cost cutting mumbo jumbo. Awaiting surgery appointment, hopefully after the sunny bit we call summer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dynax Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 Good morning A good day yesterday, had a little bimble and had fish and chips, then had coffee and cake at a little coffee shop at Go Outdoors. Then spent a couple of hours in the garden 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve_M Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 Hoping for moderate temperatures this afternoon. Currently in sight of the Erskine Bridge, I’ll be heading home, hopefully, via the Falkirk Wheel and The Kelpies, avoiding motorways as much as possible. This turns a two hour grind on motorways into an interesting four hour afternoon bimble. I should be home a little after 7pm. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRH Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 And we will be heading into Scotland just as the weather breaks and the rains start. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Westerly Posted June 10, 2023 Author Share Posted June 10, 2023 I'm heading up to Barnard Castle on Wednesday and as the weather is supposed to be reasonable will try for a bit of fun going north. Up via the Welsh borders, then M6 to Kirkby Lonsdale then through the Pennines to Middleton in Teesdale and on to Barney. Anything but the wretched motorway thrash. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve_M Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 (edited) I only had time for a quick pop by - both were genuinely impressive. I need to go back to get a better look at both. Note to self. Don’t visit on a busy Saturday… both were rammed with visitors. Edited June 10, 2023 by Steve_M 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
