    2025 Happy Christmas & happy New Year

    My mother wouldn't do anything on New Year morning, she used to say 'If I do that now I'll be doing it all year' I think she used it as an excuse to have a day off ... I don't blame her :biggrin:

    Cuttlefish bone uses

    I believe they use it for molds when casting metal but I believe it also polishes metal quite well.

    What's buzzing or flying near you 2025 ?

    The 10 Glossy Ibis moved close to Wareham town this morning, feeding in the flooded fields by a public footpath a few 100yds from home. I just hope they stay around for the winter.
