Stay
calm and keep going, as the old saying goes. Organic local produce is by far the best.
I keep filling my
tray
with little delicacies, good food will always be one of my favorite things to spend time with
Oh yes, I wouldn't want to
part
with it.
how about a nice organic apple
tart
I feel like dancing the fox
trot

Hi Nicolas, welcome aboard over here and happy dancing :) But you can all be lucky that I won't join the dance, this would only start a
riot

@7206 Hi Nicolas, welcome to this merry dance :) We should make quite a
trio
we could also join for a virtual
trip
where do you want to go today?
Let's go to an interesting foreign
port
There's plenty of opportunities for good photos there.
Thank you kindly for the warm welcomes :) A foreign port sounds interesting, but one always has to be careful in avoiding a tourist
trap
you're right, tourist traps are
crap
they are fishing for our money there only
You're right. Yet only a few hundred yards away one may see authentic places at reasonable prices, such as a really good
park
I love parks! I can stay there and shoot photos till it gets
dark
But be careful where you walk. You wouldn't want to stand on a
rake
no, that would
wake
me up and stop me from looking into the sky when I walk around...
a
walk
in a PARK??? Boy, you lot have become rather boring since I've been away. Just as well I'm back to add some colour...
Always good to have you back, Dez. You see what little we have to
talk
about when you are off so long for bungee-jumping... I hope you are fine?
I am, thank you, Michael. Just a bit tired still, but that will go.
I know you
lack
inspiration when I'm away - so I keep coming back!
no, you can't leave your boys alone, you just have to come
back
take that for granted. But I'm sure your cockatiels have missed you, too.
Yes, the poor things were alone for almost a week this time. I had a friend pop in to check on them a few times, but it's not enough. They gave me resentful looks when I got back, and I don't blame them. We've had our little sing and dance and scratch, and if I get enough energy, I'll give them a fly around later in the week. I think they were just glad that I turned the lights off. I always have to leave them on because they get frightened at night in the dark, and if I'm not here to calm them down, they could hurt themselves.
thankfully, I have no dogs to
bark
mournfully for me
It is good that you haven't trained your birdies to bark. Do they pick up sounds they hear (like cell phone sounds)? Where do they live originally, where it never gets
dark
at nights?
oh, it gets dark and
dank
but they live in huge flocks in the wild, and always have other birds around them. They don't see well at night, and so a moth or a creeping bug can send them into fits of panic.
and do they sing at
dawn
so that you have to wake up early, too? We don't have birds, so I'm just curious.
cockatiels screech rather than sing, although they mimic - but you'd wish for a magic
wand
to shut them up sometimes! They get into a sort of headbanger thing where they hit their beaks on something like a jackhammer while emitting a piercing note. It reminds me of those annoying baby hammers that squeek when they're hit - only a lot clearer and much louder. Then they kiss and whistle, and one of mine gets excited if I'm stirring anything in a glass cup. I have to take it near him and he tries to copy the sharp sound of the metal against glass - over and over and over...
