This Lord of the Manor thing really
is a 'piece of cake', having entered the pooches for Crufts where all 3
come away with 'Best of Breed', the UK Egg Marketing Board having
placed orders for 1,000 'cackle berries' per week and having signed a
contract with the FA to replace the Wembley turf next season I have now
turned my attentions to the Parley Golf Club. No disrespect to the
lovely Cath, but it was felt it needed that Bagsy touch. Having wielded
the big stick and squared off the Manager
the place was throbbing last night,couldn't get through the door at one point
while empty beer barrels were scattered everywhere. Don't quite know what we'll do next Saturday when Tiger Woods is booked?
Only
joking, it was really this young mans birthday but in true Bagsy
fashion I have forgotten both his and the lady-friends names. Don't mock
it will come to you eventually!
In
stark contrast to yesterday a rapidly clearing sky brought forth
sunshine, a gentle breeze (albeit northerly and chilly) and also not a
drop of rain which lasted all day.
No
time to lay there watching Ash Trees sway when you have one of these
alongside you in bed, but given it is the season for the House Spider (Tegenaria gigantea) to come inside this was expected.
The
only new species in the moth trap this morning, along with about 100
others, was SQUARE-SPOT RUSTIC unless I'm told differently? The rest of
the morning was given over to a car boot sale where, getting in for
FREE, made every penny profit and I did alright, and airport runs.
A
couple of hours at Longham Lake this afternoon produced nothing but
this magnificent OAK which I had not even noticed before, but I am not
sure as to species, so once again will be reliant on the archive. As the
real L of the M is on holiday in Canada with the family at this time a
Canuck theme follows, all the images were taken in that beautiful
country. Hope you lot are seeing some of these!
