This is mad.
April visitors to this blog were doouble those of March, which was itself double those for February.

Wow, thanks everyone. I think???:-/

My garage door fell off this morning.
A replacement will cost about the same as a good quality roof box for the car for our holiday.
I blame the door falling apart on the very kind people who offered to lend us a roofbox a couple of days ago.

I have always said He has a great sense of irony.

HAd a very 'random' day today, after that first half hour's panic trying to shut it so it doesn't at least LOOK broken.
Meeting at the Urban Wildlfie Centre about some mapping for the BBC Springwatch. I love talking baout birds and wildliffe with clients (like at Shorefield) and this got me invited to do the checking of the mistnets with the ranger.
We found only onebird, but a Lesser Whitethroat, which I've not held in the hand before. Truly amazing. Ringed at the same place in September two years ago.
So TINY - and weighed less than nothing.
Then a quick drive up to see the great crested newts and some glorious green-winged orchids.
All in the name of work too. I love my job.

Even more hilarious when IW turned up having finished checking the Forest map for us. 750 miles driven in three days. Nutter!
he insisted we talk it thru in th epub - and three pints of "Young Tom" at 2pm is really more than I can handle these days.
Especially when it's boiling hot outside.

When is Adobe going to invent a good spreadsheet package so we don't have to use fekking Microsoft products at all. It seems Excel stands alone as perhaps the only reason to use MS.
WORD is such a piece of crap.

I get CVs all the time written in Word.
For a graphics job??
12pt Times New Roman doesn't inspire confidence...

Ho hum. Kids today :roll:
