At the computer club

I am at the computer club at the moment, with my husband. 3 women and 15 men! I have taken some more garden photos but forgot my lead from the camera. So am using photos already on the computer. I have only had Vista for a short while so I am feeling my way. The good news is my Angels fishing rod is a pretty pink as the first bell has just bloomed and lots lots more to come. There are little Hazel trees growing all over the garden. Last year a big fat squirrel found the Hazel with a very heavy crop and returned constantly and busily buried as many nuts as he could stuff in pots and sinks. After he had done that he kept returning to eat spilt bird seed. I never saw him dig up a nut and eat it. This is what squirrels are for then to plant the next generation of trees? The squirrel goes along the top of fences to suss out the nut scene. First time one visited the garden in 21 years. At one time we had lots of hedge hogs but they have dispeared. If they do their courting and circling, which they did, huffing and puffing as they went, they can also be a flattener of favoured plants. We are a five minute walk from the town centre.

I think I'll have to find a computer class to go to in the winter.
It's nice to have squirrels in your garden. I had them in the old garden but none here.

Squirrels are great to see in the garden but they can do an awful lot of damage. One of my neighbour's had them in the loft a few yuears ago and they ate through wooden joists and knocked cement from under the roof tiles. I felt a bit guilty because I've always put food out for the birds and that obviously encouraged the squirrels in and I loved to see them!
