I am sorry if my post makes you sad, but I did think it would make Kenny happy knowing that there are so many tits in my garden.
Particularly the blue ones.
Now you're talkin'!
They make me very happy.

However, in summer when I'm trottering around watering my plant pots it's not unusual to see little mice scurrying about inbetween the pots ... and a few frogs in my posh pond (upside down old black bin lid). They're nice.
There are more ferocious furry critters. I once heard a growly hissing noise, looked up and a squirrel was glaring at me and giving me the evil eye from the bungalow roof. and then there was the rats ... but the neighbour cats waged war on them and I just slung them in the bin each morning.
I fell in my water butt once too .. but that makes me sound silly so I shall say no more about that except if I hadn't got a big bum to act like a cork I'd have been well and truly sunk.
Yup . I love my little garden.

If only people would really study what is going on around them in the garden and in general nature, then there is more enjoyment there than people realise.
I wish I could have been there when you dunked your rear end in your water butt though. Water butt is the right word and all!

Yes, talking to a good friend can make all the difference if one is feeling down.
Good night and sweet dreams to you.

Re: The 'Don't Worry Be Happy' Thread.
I found this very nice news which I hope makes you feel good...There are thousands of rescue animals waiting in shelters, hoping every day to be welcomed into their forever homes, and to get a second chance at life.
Steve Greig has adopted more than 10 dogs and several farm animals -- all of whom are seniors!
http://www.sunnyskyz.com/good-news/1...d-Farm-Animals
Currently, his home in Denver, Colorado, houses 10 dogs, a pig named "Bikini" who thinks she's a dog, two chickens, two ducks, two pigeons, a couple of cats (who live in the garage and are on mouse duty), a rabbit and a pond full of koi.
I wasn't expecting to see Morty there though!

Re: The 'Don't Worry Be Happy' Thread.
Good morning all.The Sun is shining here in lovely Rhos On Sea, and it looks like a lovely day is in store.
I do hope that nobody peeking at this thread is worrying about anything today.
Please don't worry.
Be Happy!
We are off to hospital soon as my missus has to have her mouth X rayed because of teeth problems.
She is being sent there by our dentist.
And of course I have told her...
Don't worry, be happy!
