RAF Uxbridge was the home of the RAF RL for quite a few years. On the evenings that I spent there during the build up to games, we used to drink in the RAFA club which had it's fair share of the old and the bold. Interesting fellas to talk to.

Well despite having had 4 Blackcaps in the garden feeding and a pair of Coal T**s. One of the Coal T**s had been seen going into the nesting box, neither of these took up the tenancy. The box has been nested in by a pair of Great T**s (no puns!) and they now have chicks! I've got some pics off the parents coming and going, I'll post them from my laptop in a bit ?

I got a 5 terabyte external drive for my sons PS4 (definitely not mine ?) when I learnt that GTA version whatever took up near on 100gb of the 250gb on the internal drive ?

Either way I'm happy to have something using the bird box........would have been nice if they were Blackcaps.

This is the unzoomed version

Not the best picture, taken on my phone camera. This was taken last week.

I've set my camera up to record the box. Someone has told me they could be coal ####, so now I want to know for sure. We had 6 feeding on the garden last week in a little group and they all looked like Blackcaps to me. We're lucky if they are.

Me and my son (10 yo) made some bird boxes a couple of months back and put them up round our garden, more in hope than anything. Happy to say we have a pair of Blackcaps nesting in one and we think they have young. I'll try and get some pics.......proper made me happy,and we've also seen an influx of birds visiting our garden this year. It's nice to sit and watch them.

Sausage curry for me and the missus tonight ?.........no, it's not a euphemism either!

Hope your recovery goes well ?

I remember him being a guest on Good Morning. He was given an item of tudor clothing and asked if he was getting anything from it.......his response "this was worn by a man.....or possibly a woman", nice Derek, well done ?

Mourinho appointed as new manager on 3 1/2 year deal according to BBC sport.

Papers saying Mourinho the favorite, i struggle with that concept! A manager that wants millions to spend coupled with a chairman that won't spend ?

Too true! I can't help but feel that had the England players not gone back out for the 2nd half UEFAs hand may have been forced into some kind of meaningful action. The flip side of me says that meaningful action would probably have been to sanction England.......UEFA/FIFA are no more than a corrupt busted flush!
