Love this time of year, when our regular adult bird visitors start introducing their offspring into our small urban garden. Currently we have juvenile blue tits, great tits, robins, goldfinches, starlings and blackbirds 😍
@DonnaLanclos sounds like a very satisfying day's work!
Discovering @capibarabot has made my day: who doesn't want a bit of daily capybara action in their life?! 😁
@eLearningTechie I feel your pain. Two weeks ago I actually got to see a GP in person, having first made an appointment in November (for January, the first they could offer me, which was inexplicably cancelled in December). While I was there I tried to book my six-month check-in with the diabetes nurse and was told 'there are no appointments... Try calling in a couple of weeks' 😳

Do not seize the day. This will startle the day and may cause it to become aggressive and give you a nasty bite.

Instead approach the day calmly without making eye contact, pet it gently, and slowly enfold it in a careful embrace

If the day shows any signs of resistance to being engaged with, it is likely to turn on you. Back off and return to bed.

@sbourne it's a delight - and feels like it's wholesome too :)
@sbourne completely obsessed with #WingspanGame now! Just beat BF and 2 AI players with 98 points *and* laid 15 cards: does life get any better?! 🤣
@eLearningTechie Same here: Romanian folk music on one side - although they have calmed down a bit lately (she says, jinxing it), plus we do actually have a relationship with them. The new lot have been avoiding all interaction since they moved in, and on top of the music they seem to have their well-used (!) bed against our living room wall 😳 The joys of mid-terrace living. As you say, it grinds you down. I just don't know how people can be so oblivious or inconsiderate.
@eLearningTechie I'd happily trade that for the relentless thudding, bassy, tuneless crap my new neighbours are currently playing 😫
@sbourne aha, I thought it was you! We don't really have the space for the boardgame - though I would like to experience that at some point - but the online version is a thing of beauty 🙂
