YAY! I've only ever seen one tree creeper and it was on the trunk of a tree outside my window when I lived on a farm in Herefordshire. Would love to see another one!

See here Mine expires at the end of March, but I have to renew it at the start of February, and it will then last for five years. See the link above.

Bus driver not letting me back onto N68 at Camberwell Green at 3.30am to retrieve my treasured 40-year-old hand crocheted shawl which I had left upstairs and realised immediately I got off that I had left it on the bus. I explained the situation and he still refused. Bastard. I have the bus number etc but he refused to give me his name. Somehow doubt I'll ever get the shawl back. Not a good start to the New Year. I had a very cold walk home (6)

I have loads of sparrows in my tiny garden. They come to the fatballs and the peanut feeder. I've counted over twelve at a time. Re China, when I was in Burma I was once offered a skewer of meat by a street seller, and about to accept when I noticed that each piece of "meat" on the stick had a beak and legs .... also went somewhere they had a dish with sparrow's blood on the menu. But Tarot, surely quails are much bigger than sparrows? Edited to add: My sparrows aren't silent, they are extremely noisy, they sit in the shrubs and chatter continuously.

Have you rung the water people? No problems here.

Even the starlings haven't been around this year :-S I think redwings eat berries? so maybe the few pyracantha berries I have left after the blackbirds aren't enough for them! The fox is still sometimes sleeping in the garden, but the other one seems to have disappeared.

I'll certainly go and I'm not a veggie.

How did the owner come to lose it?

No they don't (ie panic and panicked are not the same word and therefore break the rules) but it's always happening on this thread :) You are My Sunshine - The Pine Ridge Boys

Just found out you have to apply within certain dates depending on what letter your surname starts with - apparently I can't apply for a renewal till February! How are you supposed to remember this!!

I've used AVG for years (the free version) and am very happy with it. Tried Norton once and had nothing but problems - it slowed my PC practically to a standstill.

A properly qualified osteopath does years of training, including - obviously - anatomy and physiology. Can't comment on massage therapists, but presumably you would not be looking to have massage for something like this?

Have you reported it to the police? Somebody may have reported it missing?

You are lucky, only time I have seen those was when I lived in Sussex.

I just got my January edition this morning :)

Every Indian restaurant does stuff like aloo gobi :))

You could always phone one of the numbers stored in it and then ask them whose phone it is when the name comes up at their end .....

Get a second opinion from another GP would be my advice, if you were told it would go in 3 weeks and you're still in pain after 4 months.
