  • Evening GG, you have even got me watching for chick now - I had it in the background whilst working today - hope your washing enjoyed its foray to the outside :T.

    Thanks! will take a look later it says they are "offline" - clearly gone out for a meal or something :D

    Payday for me too tomorrow, somehow got it into my head that my overtime was worth an extra £400 but seems only £200 :( disappointed!

    Goes offline at 8pm, I think they need their privacy at bedtime ;).

    Tilly - washing enjoyed its outing and so did I - fell asleep for an hour in the sun :o. Cold really coming out now and feel rough but look nice and healthy :rotfl:.

    Not my garden unfortunately, Rutland Water. Still no chick :(

    Not sure if my cold is quickly getting better or if I was up so early it hasn't noticed I'm awake yet :).

    Coming out of lurkdom - got me hooked on the ospreys too :rotfl:

    However, worried about what's in the nest with the adult at the moment - looks like either a dead baby or food for them. :eek:
    And not seen the egg underneath for a couple of hrs....

    Someone put me out of my misery please....

    PS thanks for your inspiring diary GG; I'm not currently in the position to OP myself but am using lots of the tips to live as cheaply as possible as I can, in the hope I can start to OP sometime in the next few years.

    PPS hope your cold goes away and you have a fab holiday!
