  1. New alarm clock needed
  2. Yes mate, but in the concept of being war pigeons they were carriers rather than racers
  3. Excellent, A lot of the general public should have realised how important the birds were and I learnt how to make a new basket
  4. Some pic. of restored railway, a few miles from us. We went 1st. class and I'd forgotten how comfortable those old carriages were . Eldest G/Daughter by the signal box
  5. That's a shame, seems UK football is on the decline, I know they keep telling us it's good to have all these foreign players over here but I'm having my doubts
  6. Some flying, Their birds covered 9907mls. between them in those races
  7. Dare I ask, how did it finish?
  8. Great flying and only 2 dropped from 18 sent
  9. Very nice Mick, you've been a busy lad
  10. Yes, more expense could be another translator needed in Brussels
  11. If you didn't have Cameron you would have Professor Ed Miliband, ex. Harvard, USA, lecturer, I know we have to have them but they are all the same, Blair, Brown they never went to my school
  12. Would I be right in thinking this is a vote of Scotland v England rather than Scotland v U.K.
  13. You are right George, This is all about Alex Salmond
  14. Strange old thing this voting on major decisions, I remember here in Wales when we first voted on devolution it was a No years later we had the same again and a narrow Yes, how strange that appears to be final, who is it that decides whether to have a re-vote, it doesn't seem to be grass roots
  15. I was thinking about this today, If a yes vote I presume we will no longer be the U.K. and I guess the Scottish flag will disappear from the Union Flag , I've always thought it is the best looking flag in the world by a mile but would look odd without a blue background
  16. That's my Bro. in Law, I'll ask him, someone had to hold the camera
  17. The wife standing by the Gunnera plant, they grow big
  18. Yes, about 20 gold fish and 6 water lilies that have come on really well and gave a good show this year, lots of frogs, tadpoles and dragon flies, we get a few ducks and geese come in but none have nested on the island yet
  19. We had the pond dug out 7yrs. ago, I bought this tiny bunch of oxygenating weed for 50p., What I'm pulling out now must be worth hundreds
  20. Clearing weed from our pond click to enlarge
  21. Yes I have noticed my birds love them, must be something in it
  22. Last one from me tonight, Flying Pickets
  23. Wouldn't be Friday without Elkie
  24. Must have a bit of Bonnie
