2007-08-18 11:49:00
As Cumbria sits underneath its own personal rain cloud today and the moving strains of Elgar's cello concerto fill the house I feel that its a good day to settle down on the sofa with a good book. I have a stack of paperbacks awaiting me. I then remembered chatting...

The birds in the garden are thronging around my recently filled feeders this morning. There are about 35 chaffinches (which are my sparrow equivalent) along with the usual array of blue, great and coal tits, greenfinches, siskins, nuthatches and the woodpeckers.

Seabiscuit
2007-08-07 01:13:00
Last night, tired and jetlagged, I cut the work and watched a dvd. It was called Seabiscuit - about a famous US racehorse.
