For me nothing will ever come close to the John Smith's ad with Peter Kay at the Antiques Roadshow, " 200 quid! It took me 4 hours to get here today, i could have gone potholing! There's a fella over there got 3 grand for a box!" Classic.Quote:

How's married life OneHill? :D
Pretty good so far thanks DT :thumbup:
Off to the bank today to change my name over and I am quite excited :o:o
If you change your name from OneHillWonder how will we know it's you posting? :confused:Quote:

Lovely shot, Alf. I think these are small tortoiseshells, as they have the white dot on the forewing.

Sorry to be pedantic. But I was wondering if I'd been seeing large ones too. :)

I normally see different sized Tortoiseshells and always assumed they were large and small but now I think they were just male (small) and female (large) so I just learned something :D
I think I have a Painted Lady there as well ?

Nice. Apparently these migrate. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/8068050.stm
It's funny to think of a butterfly flying to the UK from Africa.
And last but not least and I really should get on with some work now :rolleyes:a Red AdmiralQuote:

Lovely pics Alf :D
We "grew" some painted lady butterflies this year, the kids loved it (or blutterflies as my step daughter calls them). Next year I think we will create a butterfly patch in our garden :thumbup:
23 hours since anyone posted down the pub?? :w00t:

I feel the need to post now but don't know what to say

I was going to post the same earlier but ran out of time, perhaps that's what's been going on- everyone's been running out of time.Quote:

It IS mild at the moment Alf, however drafts are bad :angry::D
I would be able to cope though I have my new North Face jacket to protect me from the elements, either on hill or in office :thumbup:
v QAH :)
If i had a better internet connection I'd be on more, using an O2 dongle at the mo, and it can only connect to GPRS around here, so the bandwidth is dreadful! :/

Are you finally happy with your avatar Derby? You've been through about 5 new ones but settled on cropping your old one down a bit, less is more? ;)Quote:
