Include watching pheasants eating from the bird feeder in the back garden.

Advantage No. 2: Being able to lure pheasants into one's garden with feeder so one can shoot and finally roast cooking them.

You'd shoot them with this, I'd hope:

Have you turned into a country lord so quickly, Andy?

I keep hoping Whisky will bring one home and so earn her keep.

[andrewducker]

Damn cheek!

I won't be talked to that way by a damned colonial!

Sod pheasant - Whisky should bring home a deer!!! Robbie doesn't even understand what squirrels are so I doubt he'd get anything.

Sorry that was me!!! I'm on my netbook and it doesn't want to play with remembering passwords etc.

[andrewducker]

You should try xmarks! It synchronises passwords and bookmarks across computers...

I use xmarks. Makes my iPhone and main machines all the sane. Just haven't installed it on the netbook as I hardly use it. But dug it put of cupboard when laptop refused to charge.

Currently installing windows update number 19 of 50.

you'll be pleased to hear I now have my bookmarks and passwords and all windows updates on my netbook! Normality has been returned. Now it's time to sort out that get rid of the wasters and dross on Facebook and LJ - I'm about to investigate filters! Everyone with a mental age above 14 will probably stay!

Pfft, pheasants have got nothing on our five squirrels and dozens of robins.

We staged a little interspecies gladiator fight over a packet of sesame snaps in the garden today. Despite the robins having complete air superiority, they seemed pretty annoyed at actually having to peck their food to pieces instead of just swooping in for the catch, so it's a little inconclusive whom to label victorious. I guess we'll include a cat in the next match, just to spice things up a little.

We don't seem squirrels out there, but there are definitely robins and other similarly sized birds. Uther delights in chasing them off whenever he sees them.

There are also, apparently, deer, but I haven't been awake early enough to see them yet.
