Just had a look at the osprey cam and I really need to get over to Rutland. just looked and saw it was 21 miles all around but the island bit is only 7 so might do that

You could take some great photos from the hides :T

GG, maybe we need to visit the osprey's :j

Mr T has just shouted that the ospreys need to behave - how will they know who's paying maintenance ?

Well we can go at a reasonable hour to the hide - or a ridiculously early boat trip. Or got to Gambia in Jan :rotfl:.

I'm ashamed at the lowering of standards on here. Just as well Mary Whitehouse isn't around anymore:eek:.

In money saving news - just checked HMRC website and self-assessment is open for 13/14 :j. As we won't have a tax bill to pay on houses due to voids & repairs I'll be due a nice refund for work mileage and pension contributions so off for a quick bath then I'll be filing it :T. Sometimes I'm glad I'm [STRIKE]anal a control freak [/STRIKE]organised :A.

Good to know you're on top of the tax man, so to speak.

Message from Meerkats to say Postkat on his way with Baby Oleg but had to turn back as baby left Mr Grub toy in service station
:rotfl::T:rotfl:

:rotfl: My parents keep getting these and giving them to us. Teacher one sits on my piano ready to tell naughty pupils off for not practising ... or so I tell them.

They all seem to like baby Oleg though.

OSPREY UPDATE

Last year's daddy osprey has still not returned .

Mummy osprey has mated with a younger bird :eek:. Though he seems to have b*ggered off now he's had his wicked way .

If original daddy does come back there could be DNA tests galore. All that, and 2 other ospreys used the nest for a bit of heavy petting during the week. It's turning into the Jeremy Kyle show :rotfl:.

:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: Nature is a funny old thing.

You're filling it in now :eek: ... mine gets done somewhere around the afternoon of the 31st January. No, I'm actually more lazy than that, my accountant does it for me.

Now thats fast ... this year, I'm hoping to get it done by summer, instead of *next* January ...
