That was quite an experience! It's still going on to the north east of us.

Re: TODAY'S PENNINE WEATHER
That was a bit too close for comfort! Our phone line has taken a hit, but we don't use it anyway so that's ok.

Re: Miscellaneous DIY Projects (or bits of jobs)
We have been busy building a new bench after I pinched an idea from a neighbour. 3 x 400mm gabions filled with old bricks and a bench seat made from some wood that's been in stores for years. A lick of decking paint and it's ready for summer! I had something much more rough and ready I'm mind but Co...

Re: Today I shall be Mainly...
I was up and out early listening to the dawn chorus. :smile: It's a misty, dull morning but the birds were singing away beautifully and there were a few surprises hidden amongst the usual suspects. The Merlin bird song app on my phone was a great help but unfortunately I had forgotten to charge the ...

Re: WHAT ATTRACTED YOUR ATTENTION TODAY?
It is worth reporting excellent, if not remarkable service. Our son needed a Birth Certificate to sign up with an Employment Agency, having lost his job of 18 years. He has also lost his adoption certificate, which takes the place of a birth certificate, and it was my job to try and get a replacemen...

Re: WHAT ATTRACTED YOUR ATTENTION TODAY?
Have you got one of those nets sold for use with garden ponds? A length of bamboo cane with a net on one end. It will give you a longer reach. Bring it down over the shrew, slip a sheet of card under, flip it over and bingo! One shrew taken into custody for its own protection! :smile: I do have a f...

Re: WHAT ATTRACTED YOUR ATTENTION TODAY?
Wendy, it sounds like you have been having fun and games (not 😊). Has the Shrew moved on? It's gone to ground somewhere Cathy and the cats have all got bored. I'm hoping to catch sight of it before they do next time it emerges! Shrews are likely to bite if you hold them so I have catching equipment...

Re: WHAT ATTRACTED YOUR ATTENTION TODAY?
A fast and feisty shrew has been running all over our house since 4.30am this morning with 3 cats and myself trying to corner it. The cats have their excuses I suppose, two of them only have 3 legs each and the four legged one is deaf and blind in one eye. It's too early in the morning for me!
