  1. When you look up gull ... What is a sea gull bird called? Gulls, or colloquially seagulls, are seabirds of the family Laridae in the suborder Lari. They are most closely related to the terns and skimmers and distantly related to auks, and even more distantly to waders. I was once told the good lord was not happy with his two prototypes of the gull so scrapped A & B ..hence 😉 Off to find a Shag .I thought I spotted one at Cleethorpes once 🙃🙂 Hope everyone has a good day 🙂
  2. And I bet they are not they are not made of wood 😉 House sparrows ,they cant get on the housing list around here . Nothing is what it seems when you take a name too seriously is it ? Have you ever seen a silent disco that was quiet ? Have you ever seen a mum go into a baby changing room and come out with another baby ? 🤔🙃 Life's not that simple 😃
  3. Seagulls maybe on some folks naughty/ pest list but they are also on an amber and red list for survival and that's no laughing matter for them either ,through no fault of their own. We have several country parks where family's take their kids to feed the swans and ducks and some gulls have made it their home ,simply to get a share of the food offered to the ducks etc. Think they should call them "land- gulls" as doubt some have even been out to sea , the nearest coast is around 60 miles away .
  4. We found one nesting by the pool in Madeira and from the look of his eyes he had been on their wine again .🙃
  5. We enjoyed Skara Brae too and the little church,built by POW'S if We remember rightly .
  6. Thought for the day ... "What goes around ,comes around " 🙃
  7. Spot on . When Mrs K had a big op a few years back ,our lad was up and down the UK in his waggon sleeping out . Even if it was just 2 minutes ,he made time until he was back in the area.
  8. Correct most old suitcases ,a Biro and your in ,more up to date ones have TSA locks which the powers that be can open if the need arises . Our case's have these and on the back on the outside a little slide compartment that also has our phone number within it . So we would say no case is fool proof but we have done our best to make sure we are reunited with our cases .
  9. Morning ,one of those mornings when wide awake before daybreak for no particular reason. So it's early morning cuppa ,planning next cruise or holiday ? Maybe both ,who knows ? plenty of planning time when up this early . All have a good day and take care .🙂
  10. On our cases we have used the screw fastener type luggage labels for some time now. Our names are displayed on our luggage name straps we use as well. On the chance that we were really unlucky and both the above went missing , we also have our surname and mobile contact number printed out on A4 paper left inside the case ,stating please contact in an emergency .

  16. Morning ,hope everyone's fine and dandy (that's a saying from a bygone era) Sat having my morning cuppa looking out at the rain and checking mt e-mails. I saw that my car tax payment of £30 has renewed,which I'm glad about as knowing me ,now there is no tax discs ,I could have forgot . Apart from that skimming the news headlines ,National service ,oh and a woman who claims making love made her forget things ..🤔 I could comment but .. 😆 Have a nice day -Take care 😃
  17. Hope your sister was responding to treatment and was better Josy 🙂

  20. @grapau27 Hope your feeling better in your household today I saw this and thought of you 😆 Take care buddy 🙂
  21. Morning ,Mr Blue Sky is living here today ,very bright morning . Hope all those who were feeling not too good are better today . @Snow Hill Nice result but it could have been worse , if you had said "upon delivery ,hide behind garage ,you could have ended up with the driver there for hours but at least found your parcels on your door step .😉 You were lucky ,we had the postie drop ours in a dustbin on the wrong street !! All we got was a guy phone to say sorry . All take care 🙂
  22. Sad to read about your illnesses and Happy V hubby as well. Glad to read Graham and Pauline, you have tested negative . I remember once I was at a local garage fueling the car and I went all sweaty and by the time I went into pay for it I was feeling very sick . I went home did a test but was negative ,so Googled my symptoms... Turns out I had Carowner virus 😉🙃 Hope you guys recover soon and the same good wishes to @Josy1953 sister. Take care 🙂
  23. We have Wales in S Yorks and they don't speak much welsh 😉 @Beckett Looking forward to your return already 😃❤️
  24. I do remember on the coach two ladies asking to be dropped off on the outskirts of Manchester on one of our trips . The driver refused but told everyone he would do a drop at the airport railway station and his next stop was T2 Arrivals at a bus stop .
