The starlings are back in our garden.
I like to see them each year, they do good work on the lawn, but I also hope that they do not decide to nest in our house. Some of the neighbours have had them do this and they create quite a mess. They have been busy in the garden picking bugs out of the lawn, they have a little dig around and come up with a leatherjacket or a small slug. They also like to take the sultanas I put out for the black birds.

I really am not quite as silly as I am about to sound, but... the husband and I were walking from work up to the shops in Edinburgh yesterday morning. He was telling me that there was water pouring off the top of the bus stop, I turned to look, but we carried on walking. I then turned to look back at him, next thing I know there was a thud and I was feeling like someone had hit me round the head.
The husband rushed to help me, but the overwhelming feeling of sickness made me ask him to move away and let me sit down. I had walked straight into a letter box, hit it with my knee and the right side of my head. We must have veered off course while looking behind at the bus stop. What a wally!
My knee is a rather stunning shade of purple and my head has a lump on it and looks like I forgot to wash for a while. It does hurt a bit but I think there is no lasting damage.
Note to self - look where you are walking!
