Hello Again

I haven't visited this forum for some time (as my partner has been very ill), but it's good to be back and I'm looking forward to having a good look around. I've been spending a lot of time with wildlife, and have even managed to set up my own nature blog including videos and photos (which I'm finding very exciting).

Re: Hello Again

Thank you for welcoming me back. You can have a look at my blog at Urban Extension I wasn't sure if I could post the address on this forum or not.

The land around our village is greenbelt, but the government is moving the boundary so that this land can be built on. 700 houses are proposed...

Most of the videos I take are of animals living on this greenbelt land. In a few years they will probably be gone along with the countryside - unfortunately once it's gone there's no getting it back. In the meantime we are fighting hard for its preservation.

Welcome back - sorry to hear you've been having problems - hope things will change for you soon.

The blog is very well done - lovely. I enjoyed reading it cos you live in an area we've visited quite a lot over the past dozen years or so. One of my best memories would be finding bee orchids on Corfe Common with my dad during one such holiday; made all the more poignant now as dad is no longer with us.......

Just how the government has managed to annexe you to Poole I've no idea - or rather its the government who have no idea........ why is it that the stupidist of folks end up as councillors and government ministers: is that sensible folk with a decent view on life, wildlife, the world - couldn't possibly join such an institution - couldn't bear to be part of such a wicked set-up??

Re: Hello Again

Thanks for all the welcoming messages.

Pauline, you are so right. I have been to so many council meetings, and every one of them I come out of and want to hit my head against a wall! I don't know how they do it...

Re: Hello Again

Hi Tigger,

Welcome back and I wish a good recovery for your partner and hope all is well. Your blog "Urban Extension" is great - what fabulous photographs! How lovely it must be to live where you are and be able to come so close to the birds and animals.
