    The Sparrowhawk strikes again. I have now lost five small birds to the hawk & two to seemingly natural causes. The hawk seems to have found a plentiful food supply & sadly will keep coming back. How does one prevent this from happening again.:(

    Lost another small bird today, i think that`s 4 in a month. The first 3 (tits) were sparrowhawk kills but this last one ( chaffinch) was intact so i don`t know why it died. Wife made a little box for it & buried it under the cherry tree.:(

    If you could live anywhere in Birmingham, where would it be?

    Erdington near Brookvale park. Practically lived in that park, mostly good times with a few really scary times !

    Computer help

    Pete, the ssd in my old pc is 120gb, whereas my new pc is 512 gb, so not much point in swapping. I`ve been looking at EaseUS for data transfer, has anyone used that ?

    Hybrid & electric cars

    Does anyone know how to input a postcode into a Peugeot e2008? I find this car is far too complicated for the likes of me & any help would be appreciated. I`ve been into the manual but can find no reference to postcodes.

    Accuracy of images

    So, does that mean i can put Elvis`s head on a photo of me & then post it on Tinder. ( That is a dating site for over 80`s isn`t it );)

    Accuracy of images
