  • We have had a bird of prey circling our house for a couple of days and hear an owl each night.  Not bad for Beckenham
  • Everyone is wearing masks these days, though I don't think George's will be fully effective

    Is that a young Eamonn Holmes at the back, arms folded, shaking his head about all that 5G?

    What a truly heart warming story in these dark days.

    Just look at his Just giving page  - https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/tomswalkforthenhs - going up by thousands of pounds every few minutes. 

    Sometimes I despair at members of the human race. Things like this make me realise the overwhelming majority are good people.

    There were (according to Mrs Plum) 6 (six) wonderful herons around the modest pond with it's couple of willow trees (other trees are available there) in Manor House Gardens today. Two young, four fully grown.
    I love watching them fly, taking off like an old Sopwith Camel or whatever.
    If there is an upside to this crisis it might be how we are reconnecting with all the wonderful creatures we share the planet with.
    Goats and Llamas and Ducks and Herons in Oxford Street would be nice.
    Yeah good eating from ducks and llamas. Ducks wouldn’t survive long that neck of the woods 😱😉

    Great story.

    I know we can't know for certain, but is anyone else thinking a packed O2 concert in October for the NHS isn't such a great idea?

    I’m pretty sure it won’t go ahead if it isn’t safe. There must be dates in diaries to keep people sane. It would be a bad message to put out if gigs in October were already being cancelled.
