Our starling family is expanding!!

Every picture deserves a bit of trivia.

Wolfgang Amadeus also had a starling family but not as big as yours

All fired up to take photo of a painted lady on bushes outside my daughter's.
New phone. Took so long to turn the camera on that the butterfly had flown.
Then I couldn't turn it off

Bought it last Saturday and it has taken nearly a week to make it work at all.
Damned thing shouts "Hello Moto" at me at around 01:00.

That'll be the same as mine, a Motorola summatorother It seems to be a good phone once you get used to it.

Cavalry called tonight in the shape of Northern Powergrid, and they turned up and saved the day. The distinctive smell of overheating bakelite pervading the house and the ancient service head fuse case too hot to touch. Switched most power items off but the service fuse did pop and it was back to candles for an hour or so.

Top service from the lads that came out and sorted it out with a new service head and fuse.
