Panic over - a happy ending. it was just stunned and has now flown away. Well done to the school boy from Kingsdale who knocked on the door to tell us it had fallen from the roof. A cat or crow could have easily got it whilst it was lying htere.


We put it in a recycling box and released it in our garden.


It was so beautiful - wish i'd got a pic.

:))

This reminds me of 'Blanche', from Captain Beaky...


A baby owl, whose name was Blanche

Perched bravely on a narrow branch

And wondered whether she should try

To jump up and attempt to fly...


She bravely counted up to ten

And then, she counted ten again

She jumped! She found she couldn't fly

And lay there, looking at the sky


"It's lucky that that branch", said she

"was on the ground, and not the tree."


Then off she ran and flapped her wings

And said "These are most awkward things

"For though I skip and jump quite high

"I'm still no nearer to the sky..."


And falling down, she gave a howl

And wished she'd never been an owl.

And finally her mother found her

And put a great big wing around her

And said "Dear Blanche, don't be upset!

You haven't grown your feathers yet."

    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
    • I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co.  He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.
