I’ve been checking the weather and the temp to decide if I’ll need my thermal vest and long-johns to walk the dog 🤔

Hens? I’d love a place where I could easily keep a few of those 🤗

They don't need that much room, build a wee (the northern Irish coming out) cage for them with pace for them to jump about and they'll be grand.

My morning starts usually by hitting snooze on an alarm...

This season of the year: with blackbird song.

Best. Alarm-clock. Ever.

The nearby mosques go off, so to speak, at 4 am. Although I am able to ignore them, I often use their call to prayer to propell me to the kitchen and then the terrace by about 4.30 am which is about an hour before dawn.

Amen. Here it’s robins, mourning doves and tree frogs. Then it’s let the dogs out (not the song), feed them, put on the coffee, read the paper, do the word jumbles and crosswords all this starting around 5:30.
Ooooops, almost forgot RHP.👍

Hit the snooze on my alarm unless I have an appointment. Have breakfast, check my Chess moves on RHP, to see if anyone has moved while I was sleeping, usually have a few moves. Then decide who I'll pester on RHP. 🙂 Later in morning out for my Morning caffeine fix.

A pal of mine got a couple of ducks because his wife wanted them. He was horrified when he saw what they did to his garden.
