21C - No Wind - Showery

An uneventful day weatherwise. Warm and showery. The gardens should be loving it. The picture obviously is honeysuckle, now in bloom on the back fence. As you would expect, it smells delightful too.

I have really enjoyed everyone's 'comments' particularly about the grey squirrels. Bungus surprised me with his gentle approach to the varmints and I am unashamedly in the Mata-Hari camp. "Shoot the boggers" and "Let's hear it for the Red Squirrels". If Bungus actually eats the bushy tailed rats that's OK and if he would care to prepare a grey-squirrel casserole I'm certainly game to try it. Try everything once except Morris Dancing and ........ (the other thing escapes me).

Good to hear from Jill about her Chef's Candle, and 'smoked haddock and poached eggs' will be fine as a test-dish. I have tried to download Jill's knitting Blog but so far without success. It simply says 'URL not found'. I'll try again tomorrow but maybe someone else will have more luck. Re the rose from yesterday. I don't think it's Peace (marvellous old rose) but it IS very similar, and it seems to be fairly resistant to black-spot.

And thanks Madeline for the Alt Gr material. I've bookmarked it so I can refer to it at leisure.

We had potential house-purchasers view the house at lunchtime but neither of us felt very excited when they had gone. Hard to tell though.

Please excuse short Blog but it is a 'me day' kitchenwise, and it's teatime..............

Chef's Candle worked brilliantly - we like some cooking smells, but we do eat quite a lot of fish, and don't enjoy smelling that the next morning!

Here's the full address of that blog - http://yarnstorm.blogs.com/knitblog/

I had a look at that knitting blog - fascinating and with beautiful pictures!
As for grey squirrels, to call them "God's creatures", one would have to believe in God. Doubtless the animals that are slaughtered to feed people are "God's creatures" too, but that doesn't stop people rearing them, frequently by using inhumane methods (battery hens anyone?), but they are often killed in equally cruel ways. Visit your local abattoir and see what I mean!
From the BBC site:
"Grey squirrels are an alien species and were introduced to the UK from the USA in the late nineteenth/early twentieth century. Their success has been to the detriment of our native red squirrels.
Grey squirrels are widespread and not protected in the UK. They are considered a pest of forestry, and are often killed on roads."

If I see any more in our garden, I'll shoot them too! At least it's a quick death. People these days anthropomorphise far too much.
