    IN OUR GARDEN 2024

    The Woody was determined to feed this morning. I was within twelve feet, or so, of it, and it was not bothered at all. The feeders were mobbed by Sparrows and Starlings, as per usual, but the Woody turned up, along with a Jackdaw. Steve.

    Burial of someone who committed suicide

    I had not seen that, Janice. Thank you. It confirms, to some degree, what we were told by our Mother, that Thomas had gambling debts, and that was why he committed suicide. He had only been married for a short time, and had a young daughter, who I met in later life. Steve.
