Would you like me to send you the full size pic, Margaret? If you pm me your email I will send it.

Nope......since you gave permission I have downloaded a copy from here and the card is done......well, I have to print it, but the design is complete....and you are mentioned in dispatches.

Thanks Frank.

Walking home

1-2 claytoners may require slight reeducation. Fences are fences not an alternative for waste disposal

3 Strange Fruit, and I am not talking about the haunting Billie Holiday classic

1 take it back Claytoners. It is a widespread problem

2 I had something witty to say about this but then I saw a bra and my mind went blank...

I just do not get why someone would bag their dog mess, then hang it on a bush.
There are plenty of bins to put it in

One about ten maybe fifteen feet away from where it was taken

It's so that you can see it on the way back to pick it up and bin it

Yes, these poo bags are turning up in bushes and trees nationwide,it's very disappointing......

....talking of being disappointed,I suffered a similar emotion when I was told not to watch watership down without a box of tissues handy

Just a few to keep my hand in.

1. Professor Damian Hughes, prize giving.
2. Him again. He gave a really interesting talk/lecture afterwards.
3. My friends are back again.
4. Where have they all gone? Something scared his mates away.
5. Morning dew.
6. My feeble attempt at file manipulation. I will leave it to you experts.

Now to fill the bird bath up again, the little divils come twice a day.

Russell....love 5&6.
Wasn't sure who Prof Damian Hughes was....had to look him up. Thought he looked very young to be a professor.......and he is.

You might be able to find short clips of his lectures on youtube Margaret. He involved all the audience with his little demonstrations on how to achieve that little bit more.

A quick example..Ask someone to hold their hand up as high as they can, then tell them "just a bit higher" and everybody did just that. Proving you can always do that little bit better. He was a very good choice of speaker for the girls from Westholme school.

Russell, i had a look at some of the You tube stuff and you are right......we can all strive to be a bit better.
I could identify with many of the things he said.

Frank, I have made two cards with the Robin featured.....I am going to put them on here...but first of all...they actually look better in the flesh....the cards were scanned in.....and they have not scanned that well(colour wise that is).
Just wanted you to be able to see the finished item.......and your mention.
Might take some pictures with the camera later......and upload them

Margaret Pilkington · 20-09-2014, 13:53
