I tend to fiddle with my ancient 98SE comp....
The results are not always successful...lol....
I'm cheesed off with my C.Drive at the moment as it's full up and I can't seem to be able to delete the bug bearers......
Going to unplug it and see what my extenal hard disk can perform.
This might possibly put me off line for about a month or two, before someone sorts it..
But I hope not...but who knows..I love playing about with computors...
By the way, I've left one of my best pics as my avatar...just in case....

Tuesday Lunchtime...
A dreaded but responsible thing to do....
Check out the local Mc Yuckies to see if they had sunk even further....
****
1) Main Door was stiff and there seemed to be a constant queue of polite people trying to get in, and most importantly, trying to get out.
2) Confused queues at the counter..Which till to stand behind ?..Best to stand between two and hedge you bets someone is running one of them ?
3) I got a double cheese burger. Not that much of a delay. Staff were polite. Lots of different sorts of McYuckies to choose from.
That slowed the tills down and staff had far more to do than just operate a till (or two).
4) The double cheese burgers looked good in the special offer posters outside the shop @ £1.19. But the actual product had no resemblence.It was very flat and extremely McYuckie. Worth adout 50 pence in my opinion.
5) The place had few children in it at the time. Seemed to be busy with Adults on their lunch break. I wondered if Ronnie was giving out Adult Toys instead.....
6) Very stuffy to breath in the place when only waiting for a few minuits for the McYuckie Cheeseburger.
7) McYuckie Cheeseburger to 'orrible to me to fully consume and after 3 bites it was discarded.

The full report cannot be published due to legal reasons....

I't seems so strange to say that.
I was wondering of at least a bit of summer to arrive.
But no.
It never started.
****
I was expecting the garden to grow out of control & lots of clippings to be processed.
However..
This year,nearly no need.
We had no summer.
****
I fear for my special plants.
They germinated from seed & need a 4 year nurture to medium maturity.
There was very little sunlight for them..So I wonder if they will survive the winter.
I will try to provide artificial uv etc for a few.
****
It seems so strange...
Australia has very low water supplies left...And they have only just starting their spring....
Heaven Help Us.

Thanks TWL & Pete.
It is a sort of arthritic/bunion treatment,(keller),thats well established but not without critisium.
At my age,this is not an often procedure.
Just one of lifes adventures...

Not quite sure as to the real details of the surgery...
But I had 'Kellers' procedure carried out on my left big toe on monday.Something to do about redoing the ball joint.
Gen knock-out.Overnight recovery.
Now very sore.Heavy foot bandage. A pin,with a tag,sticking out in front of the shortened toe.A 'special' slipper.Cruches.
Return in two weeks to Hospital...
Raven is very crippled at the moment.

Withe several trays of Tadpoles,I can identify certain apprentice froggies & help those in need....
A few weeks ago,I notice a little black blob,on the submerged gravel,being swashed around by a greedy big Taddy,burrowing down into the peddles.
Side Tails had been rescued.
Only a fifth of the size expected,& his tail at right angles to his body.
A new tray was prepeared. Side Tails,along with a small family of smallish taddies (5 in all),how have their own home.
Side Tails is still with us. I check once a day at least.Theres no sign of the other baby froggies hopefuls trying to eat him...

Side Tails has a chance....

Main Tank looks far too green.
An aeriator has been used,however,I fear for the well being of the proposeing froggies.
The main pond is stagment.
This is the Frog Home Base.
Should I disturb ?
****
However,shallow,gravel tray Tadpoles are very active,The Swamp hopefully to be froggies seem active also....
****
My Triffid Plants are not big enough to start feeding.
****
Birdie Feeding has to be reduced due to a very cunning young cat.

I find it nice that theres an interest in these life forms...
Both are diverse as to what is called 'the norm'.
The Study of Carnivouous Plants & Froggies should further change the meaning of life as we generally know it.
****
Main Pond untouched
Main Tanks gone green but active
Swamp & Pebble trays active
****

Weather been a little bit odd over here,the past few days.
Have u/v lighting unit over the young semi triffids.
They are doing rather well,however,they are slow & there are a number of hybrids.
Tadpoles tanks show different activity.
One is a shallow with pebbles,breaking to the surface.
Central tank is very active,with spider plants for the micro froggies to cling too.Natual algae is turning the water green and it seems the frogies to be are fine.
The marsh tray is a mystery.
It's a sphagnum moss swamp land.
The central pond is being left well alone.
Apart from the central pond,Tadpoles recieve a daily diet of ground up fish flake food.
Weather might get up too about average this weekend.
It's strange that we are concerned when it gets to freezing..I't just that it's towards the end of March.
*****
I'm sure it's the Bush again,farting overseas in the wrong direction.

What do you think ?
It's simple & brightens up the pages I think.
If you want, blue for example, then start by..

Say whats to be said,& then put

text sizes,etc can be a little bit more awkward.
