Three Good Things

Norbs, when we moved to the country road some 35 years ago where my wife was born, when we walked along the road there were loads of bats ducking and diving. My sons and a friend.were walking from my house to the farm at the end of the road in the gloom and one bat's radar must have gone wrong and the bat hit their friend on the shoulder and bounced up and hit his ear. 

There was much merriment  Took him a while to see the funny side!

Thats a properly funny tale tvman, I would have loved to have seen that!

Bats, I reckon naturists would pay extra, it’s all in the marketing.

Hi TVman your story made me laugh,it gave a whole new meaning to getting a bat round the ear.

Bats are lovely little creatures no harm to anyone.

As surmises, I am all for the bats staying put and the buyers being sensible. If you havent noticed them then they are no trouble anyway and I would love to have resident bats. I too was once hit in the head by a young bat as I was walking along a country lane at dusk. I am not sure which of us was more shocked. We both survived.

My nice things this weekend were

Film in cave was great fun - i did feel sorry for the jackdaws nesting in th cave- they must be deaf by now ( and no doubt any bats further into they cave system)

Yorkshire sculpture park was a lovely day on saturday- love the giant Buddha. less keen on the Damien Hirst huge pregnant statue.

Good pub lunch on Sunday, and sun shone throughout.

My regards to too, hope he recovers some strength.

I think the buyers should have come to a decision in a couple of days. If it wasn't for the trouble it is causing I would be happy to have them here.

I am so pleased you are getting some enjoyment after your recent sadness.

Of course I will say hello to SiT on your behalf. He is a very worn out person at the moment.

1. Took my wife to the place we started dating 38 years ago today

2. had a lovely lunch sitting outdoors listening to a trumpeter playing soft jazz

3. managed the whole 250 mile drive and my back held up without issue. 

How lovely, sounds so romantic too!

We intend doing that. We met in Brighton in 1977. Now three children and 44 years  later we are living in Wales. It’s a bit of remenising before the inevitable happens.

and doing it whilst I am still able to get around.

It was my husbands idea. Not normally sentimental or romantic.

hope everyone doing as best they can.

Sounds brilliant those are days to remember
