      Thank you very much. I really agree with you re the Terrapin - there are a couple of them in the lake, quite big - I'm not excusing the person who put them in there, but I think parents bought them for their children, not realising they grow to the size of dinner plates and the same ignorance leads to them thinking it's a good idea to release them into the pond - not realising the damage to the indigenous flora and fauna! Very sad :wallbanging:

        Sorry Woo, may I clarify - I hope I run into you in Capstone Park NOT Under the Bridge, with the poor wretched junkies :roflol::roflol::roflol:

          10959658_10152971011435783_719947848076941360_n.jpg is this considered cheating if I admit to volunteering at a wildlife sanctuary?

                                Thank you, woo - I was avoiding using that term .... there's enough talk of Parliament in the news lately :heehee: Although Barn and Tawny are far more interesting than Labour and Tory (other parties are available ;) ) :whistle:
