    Osprey Update
    Am afraid there will be no little ospreys this year, the daddy has been chased off by a stronger male and 2 eggs kicked out of the centre of the nest. The remaining egg won't hatch as it's been left uncovered for too long. It's possible mum may now mate with the new bird and lay another clutch. Aw, it really is like Jeremy Kyle :(

    I'm starting to get very worried about myself - I looked at your smiley, and for about 60 seconds I was very confused because I was convinced it was Saturday....:o

    I think it's because I've got a morning off today...although I am working tomorrow so that doesn't work either :p

    Very strange! Ah well....

    Well done on all the achievements; really impressed :) x
