Good Morning

I hope you have a wonderful season of growing your lettuce.  I love homegrown lettuce.

Re: Good afternoon Sherri

We shall see how the neighbours got on as you say weather patterns are changing of course once they held fairs on the Thames.

Re:Pat

Yes I hope you feel like dancing. Sadly I bit on a pecan although it had been soaking in wine. Result a bit fell out of a filling £45 to have it bodged. £750 gold crown. Spring is springing.

Re: Taps

Tommorow I'll tell you how to make a cheap mouse trap. The gadjects so called plug into an electric socket and are supposed to emit sounds that insects and vermin dislike. I don't know if it is wise to use them indoors but I use them in the greenhouses as last year little black mice kept nipping the strawberries off. I still think for mice a bit of cheese on a Little Nipper mouse trap. Always tie a piece of string to the trap and tie it to something encase the mouse drags the trap and cannot be dealt with humanely.

Re: Kabu

I hope you are a cat whisler, whilsler, wisperer.Do you know not long ago men used to shoot the nests down full of young crows and eat them.

Re: mneme

No I don't mind them, I think that rascal magpie likes their eggs.

On the American West, I often hear about Alaskan cruises. I'd be curious to try one...I'm loving me some Uncle Albert.

I don't mind pigeons in my garden, they eat all the acorns. I am surrounded by enormous oak trees, and were it not for these hefty foragers, there would be an oak forest out there.

Someone here calls me the crow Whisperer. In Canada I had them all beautifully trained not to touch any baby birds or eggs on my property.One used to whisle back a tune I sang to it. These crows here have to learn not to touch any babies born in my trees.

I tried to google "vermin gadgets" but was unsuccessful.  I wanted to see pictures of what you use for that.

Funny thing about birds like magpies and crows - they have

their own rule book and don't recognize others. I hope your lettuce thrives and you can make a great salad - perhaps one with chopped apples and pecans, and a nice raspberry vinagriette dressing. Nice to see things in bloom around here - redbud trees are inviting us to the dance all over town this morning, waving their bright pink branches gently in the breeze.

I find that wrinkles add a bit of character to the face. It beats that fake plastic look that comes from surgery.

Good afternoon

I have a yard full of pigeons who visit daily to get their share of the feed. They will no longer be welcome the day that they decide to peck at my small garden. As for California, the entire state is experiencing cooler temps than they are used to this time of year. My parents live close to the border of northern California and they appear to have swapped weather with us here in Pennsylvania. They had a brutal winter as to which it passed us by. These are definitely strange times.

Good Afternoon

You write such wonderful poetry.  I always love your use of language and imagery.
