Always a blessing to see these little folk in the garden. And getting along so well at the feeders 😃 The blue tits must be juveniles as the resident adult pair are usually less sharing with smaller birds like long-tailed tits. #Birds #Tits #Wildlife

There's a new Viz in the shops (issue 358). Sorry no refunds.
The cover of the new issue (Viz 358 - in the shops now. Hurry, hurry, hurry while stocks last), and a letter that reads as follows: "I see Professor Brian Cox is at it again, boasting about how his Large Hadron Collider at Cern accelerates particles to 9.9999% the speed of light. Well when I turn my torch on, the light comes out the end at 100% the speed of light, and I didn't need several billion quid to do it. In fact it cost a quid from Poundland. So he can stick that in his pipe and smoke it. Gary Ireland, Tauranga."

Well, at least it's finally safe for me to engage in conversation with other folk without them asking me what I think about the football just to see them look disappointed (sometimes upset) when I tell them I haven't got a scoobie 😃

Here's one of my regular jackdaws, Francis. Named after Sir Francis Drake because it has very fluffy feathers at the top of it legs that make it looks like it's wearing the type of trunk hose worn in the Elizabethan times. #Birds #UKBirds #Wildlife #UKWildlife

APPARENTLY, octopuses
have three brains. If I had
three brains - like an octopus - I
would use one just to think about
food and another to think about
shagging. The third one, when
needed, I would use for movement,
basic social interaction, and
thinking up excuses. I think they
have three stomachs as well, and
I would keep one just for
puddings.

I've ot a murder to solve. Something has killed a bee and then stuck its carcass to the end of a young lavender plants leaf. And by stuck, I mean it's pretty blustery today and that bee ain't going anywhere. So far the culprit is yet to reveal themselves, any ideas folks? #UKNature #wildlife #Nature

Cherry and crabapple blossom, smells great and it's humming with all sorts of bees. So much so that they're pretty much ignoring all the other flowers in the garden and my patio is silent, which feels unusual lol #Nature #Wildlife #Gardening #CherryBlossom #Blossom

Wow, just sitting in the conservatory and all off a sudden there's a mass panic in the bird population outside. Wondered why, and then this beauty lands in my garden to pose for a few photos. Though they did look a bit grumpy after a failed hunting attempt #Birds #SparrowHawk #Wildlife

My Dear Reader,

It has been brought to my attention that after a brief sojourn in first page of the ‘Top 100 Books’ listing of a popular internet purchasing site, The Wrestler’s Neck, this year’s offering from Viz Comic, has fallen into the backwaters of the second page where it currently resides at position number 53.

Those of you who have not yet purchased a copy of the book must bear responsibility for this demotion. If you count yourself in this number, let me say that I am not angry with you. I am merely disappointed.

I remain, yours etc,

I RECENTLY bought a new
laptop which, to my surprise,
was made by HP. This must be
a really progressive company to
diversify from producing baked
beans, soup and tomato sauce
to making computers. Their
competitors should take a leaf out
of HP's book and get busy. Maybe
we could see new gadgets like a
Fray Bentos Fitbit, Batchelors
Bluetooth Earbuds or even a Mr
Kipling Raspberry Smartphone.

Petition: Ensure plurality of political coverage across UK broadcast media at all times
We want to ensure that a plurality of views from all political parties in Westminster are represented and the nations parliaments are heard all year round, not just election times. The rules for coverage during elections should apply at all times.

Just for perspective, a few weeks ago roughly 100,000 turned up for the London Trans+ Pride march. By contrast fewer than 3,000 ACROSS THE WHOLE COUNTRY, have turned up to anti-asylum "protests". Yet we are meant to take the latter as "the voice of the people" and the former as "the minority".
