Unlike that any of you were watching Curious Creatures on BBC 2 today. On my television that last couple of minutes were wrecked by voices on the television coming from some other source - no idea what. Programme isn't available on iPlayer. The answer to the last question was that it was the tail of a red panda and it was that team which won with maximum points.
Programme isn't on Youtube but is on the Daily Motion site:

Evening all.
Sad news today. Eldest son and DiL had to have their Labrador, Harvey, put to sleep.
Old age had caught up with him and the kindest thing was to let him go.
Iâve got an image of him and Keira romping around in heaven the way they used to do here on earth.
Good news about BBC iPlayer, El but sad news about Barrington Pheloung - 65 is no age.

Thanks Moonie

Do the parents chase the geese if they get too close?

Nope, the geese hardly get a chance to get in the pool unless the swans and cygnets are at the other end. Then I have I seen one of the swans fly the length of the pool to chase them onto the pool side
Goodnight and sweet dreams, Moonie and Ros

Good morning everyone it's another sunny morning with rain expected over the weekend and next week. Sad news about Harvey, it's always hard to lose a loved family member.
Enjoy your day everyone
Good morning everyone
Fairly sunny here. Same here as Squiggle with rain/showers expected most days from Sunday.
Sad news about Harvey, a nice image of him playing with Keira in heaven
Client coming to see me at any time between 9 and 10 this morning.
I hope everyone has a good day

Still just the one wicket down and 118 runs scored. So looks more promising but England is expert at collapses
All that you'll ever see of this 1926 film which is long lost. I think it's reasonable to assume that if any reels of it still existed they would have been found.
One of the people in the film (though I don't think is seen in the above) was Malcolm Keen. His son was Geoffrey Keen who was often seen in the earlier Bond films.
A few days ago I mentioned an old film I'd seen called Once in a New Moon. I said that, although not as good as the best Ealing comedies made years later it was still watchable. One of the Ealing comedies I had in mind was Passport to Pimlico. One of the leads in Passport to Pimlico was Stanley Holloway.
Although some of Stanley Holloway's films are worth watching, his 1937 film The Vicar of Bray is not one of them. I saw it years ago and hope not to see it again. It was directed by a Henry Edwards. That was the last film he directed and he went back into acting. I wonder why 
The film was produced by a Julius Hagen. Looking at the films he produced I saw a 1932 film called The Lodger. That was directed by Maurice Elvey who made a lot of British films and was quite a well known director. That 1932 The Lodger starred Ivor Novello.
The Lodger had been made before as a silent film in 1927 also with Ivor Novello. That is a film I've seen and is possibly the first really important British film made as it's the first Alfred Hitchcock film which can be regarded as a Hitchock film. The film he made before that was The Mountain Eagle I mentioned above.
How I got from Once in a New Moon to The Mountain Eagle

We had a really good day with the tiddlers. They are sad at losing Harvey but seemed comforted by the thought of Keira and Harvey being reunited.
Thank you El, Squiggle and Twickers. As you say, they are a big part of our families and much missed.
El, I liked Passport to Pimlico - Mr Y has watched it numerous times.
I hope youâve all had a good day.
Goodnight and sweet dreams, Ros

Good morning everyone, surprisingly stuffy and was all night long. I wasn't expecting that. A thick blanket of cloud and not a hint of a breeze. I hope it's better where you are.
Enjoy your day everyone
