This week,23.5.16.
Been a good week this week with sighting some of this years baby Mandarins!.
Proud Mum.
She has 7 babies in all, not a lot really, last year there were Mothers with as many as 14!.
Dad looking a bit scraggy now, loosing his smart plumage!.
This mother is keeping a firm grip on her babies in no uncertain way, Ooch!.
Dad is doing his bit feeding the young ones already on the water
The previous weeks Moor Hens chicks are doing well and putting on some weight now.
Keeping up with Mum.
Canada Geese babies with dad in aggressive stance to ward off the other birds!.
The ever watchful crows looking for an easy meal.

On the home front, I finally got my new chair today, the last part of my order from Sofology in Oldham and look who's claimed it!
I'm only kidding really it was for him, notice the pouffe for him to get up without scratching the front.
Very comfy now and looking a bit more modern!.
Sofology very good in that they give you a 4 hr slot for delivery on the day and then phone you as they are getting near to you, so at least I was able to get out and have my haircut ( one cutting and two bagging) so it wasn't a wasted morning!, nice friendly guys as well!.
The new Pouffe now replaces the chair I was using at the PC,
Free to good home now!
Studs on Pouffe
Replaced with
Castors!
Much more comfortable! and can be moved about very easily.
A bit of gardening this afternoon after a trip to the lake.
Put the two Buxus into nice matching pots, just have to try and keep them as round balls now!
Last week friend Marjorie bought her Granddaughters this beautiful puppy, can't remember if it's a cross Bichion/ Shitzu or Bichion/ lapiapso!, but whatever its a lively little beauty
How can you not like that cute face!.
This week I also fell foul of the Windows 10 dirty tricks system that's been in the news this week, where you found your PC updating to Windows 10!!, luckily Son John found out for me how to revert back to Windows 7, which I'm more used too.
You have to change back within the month of the change, but it only takes about half an hour whereas the Windows 10 update took forever and slowed down everything and turned all my photos to useless blurred images!.
3 other friends of mine got caught out that I know of, how many others are out there suffering, if you want a fix let me know!.
Another moan, bought these Hay-fever tablets from Aldi, small packet at the top are the same as the bigger packet with the same contents in!. What is the point of that?, if only to make you think you are getting better value for your money!, it only fills up your Blue bin quicker doesn't it, don't we get enough junk mail though our doors these days!
Well that's the moan of the week done, on to happier things!.

A barking dog never bites, well at least not while its barking.
What is a Shiatsu?, A Dog? No a zoo with no animals!.
A dog walks into a Wild West bar and says
'I'm looking for the man who shot my Paw'.

That's all for now folks.
