    I meant to post on Saturday that I had cycled down the town to do a bit of shopping, no jacket, but the sky started to get a bit dark. Just as I got home and opened my front door, the skies opened up…but I was dry.

    Later, the same thing. I went out on the bike (but jacket in my bag this time) and the sky looked ominous but it waited until I got back to my garden before the torrential rain started. 😎

    There was a film in 1970 called “The Ballad Of Cable Hogue” too. I wonder if all three are somehow connected…🤔😉

    Apologies to all for my previous mix up of the TH and TA threads. Won't happen again.

    I am not well known as a lover of babies or children in general. They all basically look the same and I never 'see' the mother or father in the babies features.

    However - my sister has just given birth to a girl. Named after our grandmother who passed away in April. And she is absolutely beautiful. And looks just like her mother as a baby. Maybe it's because of the association with the name but she's just gorgeous.

    Looking out my "office" window I spotted some youngsters (assuming on their way back from the match), had left a fish box in the green in front of the church. One of the volunteers in that church hates me with a passion so I kept a close eye on how this would work out, round 1 was them trying to pick up the stray chips before the bird WhatsApp sent out the alarm. Round 2 was the birds having a huddle and formulating a plan, round 3 4ish larger birds tip the box out and swooped menacingly on the box and the strewn food.

    Beyond the petty th, watching the birds work together and planning was lovely to see.

    Also a th, watching them hitch lifts on the roofs of larger cars as they went thru town!

    There's a girl I work with that has a huge dressing gown size cardigan that looks like it was made by putting twenty muppets in a blender and gluing the gooey remains together.

    I would love to buy one and keep it in my van just so I can do this 😂
