Thank you @ianpspurs
I didn't get much of an education as a small child, being considered stupid , but I had a flower, trees and bushes etc id book when I was about 7 years old by my Aunt (who I now know to be my birth mother, and a red penknife by my Uncle, who I now know to be my birth father, both useful items). And I set about learning how to id all wildlife and plants and trees around me. I have forgotten a lot of it now but it soon comes back, as the badger brings in more wild seeds and stuff into the garden...
We are just interested in what is important to us because of our surroundings as a child...
Tomorrow I have a nice long break which I am going to use to make sense of my pages and pages of notes. Hopefully I can then teach it.
Beautiful @Lamont DA few of my blooms, no idea of them names. Just nice flowers for show!
roses took a battering from the thunderstorms, so no photo.
have a wonderful evening.
best wishes.
Thank you @ianpspurs. I don't feel so bad now that I was struggling to take the information in and feeling that my brain was shutting down.Enjoy the walk and lunch which should help to balance that mammoth Zoom session. I reckon 30 minute chunks are about all most people can productively concentrate for when studying. Ignoring that is/was the cause of so much poor behaviour and underachievement in schools imho.
My trouble is, once I start, I can't stop. Sat for hours on Friday following a line through Alfred the Great, Offa and all the way back to King Caelwin of Wessex 547-591. This is all my grandmother's line. How are the mighty fallen. My grandmother was a kitchen maid/assistant cook in a big house in the palace mews in 1900.Fbg this morning was 6.2 after a rather uncomfortable night breathing seemed a bit off at one point blood oxygen was 83% but back up to 92% much better.
Ade is cooking for us today since becoming a friar he has become a very good cook as he quite often cooks for all the brothers at the friary.
Was trawling through Judith’s family tree the other day and came across a 17th century 1st cousin of hers his name was Thomas Story who was a typical man about town complete with sword and fancy clothes until he became friends with William Penn and became a Quaker travelling with him to America where he helped Penn found Pennsylvania where he was voted in as the mayor of Philadelphia but refused to serve and had to pay a fine of £20 quite an interesting chap. Well perusing family trees is something to do at 3 AM when you can’t sleep isn’t it.
That is a nightmare @gennepher. Why oh why don't they check that their site is user friendly.Just wasted over 2 hours filling in an important online form.
I was screen shooting each page as a record of what I had filled in.
The site didn't like that and told me I couldn't do that, and it was shutting down my page so I had to start all over again.
Start from the beginning again, still trying to take screen shots of each page I fill in.
We will terminate the connection if you carry on with this says the site, and the site terminates the connection.
I try again with no screen shots this time.
It goes smoothly me filling in all the pages.
We will send you a confirmation letter the closing page says.
Confirmation email comes through...Thank you for telling us your property is empty it says....
WHAT!!!
I NEVER SAID THAT. I NEVER SAW ANYTHING THAT EVEN IMPLIED THAT....
I start all over again. No screenshots this time.
Thank you for updating the site says, we may come and visit you to vacate
I wish they did @Krystyna23040That is a nightmare @gennepher. Why oh why don't they check that their site is user friendly.
I expect your garden birds are responsible for dispersing plant seeds too @gennepher. Updating an inventory of the native flora and fauna that appears in our garden certainly keeps me on my toes.And I set about learning how to id all wildlife and plants and trees around me.

It is a long time since I have seen a cinnabar moth @LivingLightlyI expect your garden birds are responsible for dispersing plant seeds too @gennepher. Updating an inventory of the native flora and fauna that appears in our garden certainly keeps me on my toes.
This year, some ragwort has sprung up on the ground beneath the bird station and is now in full flower. Today I noticed some striking newly-hatched caterpillars have appeared as if by magic on its stems. That'll be the larvae of the beautiful cinnabar moth.
Sunday's FBG 4.6 mmol on waking at 6.00 am.
My mum used to wander through our fields pulling up the ragwort - some toxin in it that damages the animals liver. The clever goats though never went near it.I expect your garden birds are responsible for dispersing plant seeds too @gennepher.

You definitely need a day just for you after your brain was fried.I wish they did @Krystyna23040
Because it spoilt my day. And I didn't get to do what I wanted/needed to do because my brain was fried by then.
Tomorrow is now a day for me, Sunday was supposed to be for me, but this form needed doing and I thought it would be a load off my mind if I did it now...I should have known better...
Tree doing gentle morning exercises @dunelmGood morning everyone from a deliciously overcast start with only 23 degrees of scorchio here in blister land. Yesterday afternoon was spent at a place called Niki Beach under the shade of big parasols. Nice pool, some good food but with the land of razor sharp rocks hiding under an alluring sea. Dinner last night at some Italian place which had a good fish menu. No idea for today, off for a wander round an outdoor market just up the road. Art bit - quick tree - they move so fast here. Hope everyone is coping as well as they can be. The scent of Koffy is in the air.
