Hi ellen,

I'll look out for them, then - I've not seen any fritillaries since I was a child, I don't think, I'd love to see one again. Smashing photo, anyway,
Regards,

Pete

Another one to add to my favourites,really lovely photos there Billy......

Ah the swan photo. That one really seems to be a favourite amongst women. It certainly got lots of 'ahhhs...' when I showed it at work. I have another where the young 'un is awake. I'll upload it to the image Gallery sometime.

edit - here it is....

Mute Swan with Cygnet - Wild About Britain Pics

Yes bless him lol...He thought he had got away with it..

Thank you Ellen for the comment on my spider pic..
Just going to have a word with that Billy TM..lol.

Hi Ellen. Thanks for the invitation. Now Kayleigh won't be able to call me BOM any more :-)

That's OK it was a lovely shot. I just love them..
I had a damselfly inthe garden today got a shot but not a good one as the thing would not keep still..
Made my day though..

Not heard from you for a bit - hope all ok? Hows your pebble-dashing fence-staining mum doing?! Mine is as dippy as usual and playing me up except that I've taken (yet again) a new tack and am not getting mad with her or shouting, instead I tell her once and then leave her to it and when she realises that I am leaving if I don't like what she is or isn;t doing then she changes tack - its my turn to be manipulative now - I don't like it one bit - I prefer to be straight in all my dealings - but if folk won't allow that - then you have to play their game ..... Main hols looming and still no packing done due to other probs and this morning I had a severe stomach upset - typical pre hol behaviour!!!

Hi Ellen, Thanks for the comments on the woods pic, yes that path was well worth walking down.
Regards
Rob

well I'm as sore as a beaten donkey today! When the discomfort wears off I will be a lot better - good job the hols are not till Fri! The weekend at the van was ok - weather was iffy - a bit more cloud than sun and a very cold wind which stopped the insects from flying which was a shame as our friends came up on the sunday all geared up to bug and butterfly hunt and there was just nothing about - a bit scary really - I hope we;re not going to have a third poor summer or the insect world could be in big trouble. The site was ram jammed packed with folk and they stayed up late and partied in the next van which always annoys me slightly! We have this next week off and are going to the van tho Ian has announced he feels rough and a sore throat this morning - what a matching pair!! I've grinned again at your decorating - I've got to ask but why was your mum using the roller and you doing the bottom half - sounds like a recipe for a splattering?!!!
