    find this strange
    but I am not superstitious
    just curious why a magpie been pecking my same window
    on staircase.
    same time each Sunday??
    it wakes me wtflip??

    I'll see your Magpie at the window and raise you a Dove in the conservatory :eek:

    I'm on my own here and suddenly there was a huge commotion at the back and this Dove was flapping around at the roof and windows. OMG, I didn't know what to do. I quickly shut the sliding door so it couldn't get into the house, making sure the dog was on the inside and luckily my neighbour was in his garden and came round and rescued it. Talk about panic, I need a drink now!

    I see your Dove and raise you a Bat. :p

    When I was with my foster parents, we had the living room doors open and a bat flew into the living room, then into the conservatory (what is is with conservatories?! lol). My foster mum and I made a run for it but she pushed me out the way to get out the door first! The cheek! I have no idea why we even ran for it. Instinct? lol. Anyway, we think it flew into the conservatory, turned around and went back out. It was very strange!

    I like Doves. Such beautiful creatures. :)

    I see your Magpie at the window, and the Dove in the conservatory and raise you a large docile bee in my living room. Last week everytime I went out the back to get coal there was a big docile bee sitting outside my bag of coal. I was a bit hesitant reaching into the bag incase the bee attacked me. But it just sat there.
    Came back today from Tesco's and could see something moving around my living room floor, it was the same docile bee that had been out the back. I watched it moving very slowly around my floor. I said to it I won't touch you if you keep your distance from me. After awhile I thought I can't be bothered watching this bee crawl around my floor so got brave, opened the window, got a bit of paper and lifted it and threw it out the window. Hope its ok.

    Lady Morticia your bat reminds of one night we went out for a meal to a real swanky Restaurantl. Very expensive will very little on the plate. I am an awful picky eater. Well the starter was like 3 leaves pulled out of the garden. I had chicken for my main (the chicken was supposed to be with Garlic) as there were 2 of the group who didn't like garlic the chef said he did have 2 without Garlic. Now when I think of it I can understand why he was serving Garlic.
    We were sitting one side of the restaurant and people on the other side started screaming and getting up from their chairs, it was only a bat flying around the restaurant.
    I stopped off on the way home and bought myself a Fish supper (Fish and Chips). I only went to that Restaurant once and once was enough.

    They are only having a laugh but they are getting my stress levels up about the wedding now. Joking about the pastor (saying what sauce are we having with the pasta) and then saying they will all sing donald wheres your trousers when the piper is piping me in . I know they are messing but i worry about silly little things like that.

    Becks I know what's it like as it gets nearer the Big Day. 2 weeks before my Big Day I was all for calling it off. It was over invitations. His Mother decided at the last minute she wanted a woman who was her Bridesmaid to come to the wedding. I had no invitations left. Any way don't know how I managed it but we got 1 invitation and when we sent it the woman was on holidays at the time of the wedding and couldn't come. My stress levels were through the roof.
