  1. This mornings visitor has been around several times, we used to have a big holly tree and they arrived in numbers for the berries
  2. Not opened yet but a present from the Nephew from the Swanage Railway collection, looking forward to trying them when I've finished my Palmers!
  3. Well got my Christmas beer in! Had friends and neighbours in yesterday for buffet lunch My favourite session beer, now to finish it off!
  4. Been trying to get a shot of this fella for ages, my camera although very good takes a short time to focus through the window and they keep flying off! and on the other shell through a window that picks up a reflection at one time there were 6 in the garden but I was up to my neck in "muck & bullets" making a meatloaf!
  5. As you say good selection but at those prices it would stay in the keg! I was drinking Palmers IPA near Bridport on Wednesday at £3.60 a pint very nice.
  6. I've seen this fella several times but finally got a pic of him and this chap has appeared before but here you can see more of his colouring, albeit through a rain spattered window
  7. In the garden over the weekend One of Tim Dubya's Siskins
  8. A couple from the garden today, we usually see a lot of these on the feeders and occasional visitors strutting around the lawn rather taken with the fella on the right with the bouffant hairstyle!
  9. We've had 3 sightings recently of a Grey Wagtail but it flies off before I can get my camera, so you'll just have to take my word for it!
  10. Not really what I would consider a garden bird but todays visitor was
  11. Prompted by this post I dug my memento out given to me by the steward at the club back in the days when it was well worth drinking
  12. On a recent trip which included a visit to Bratislava our guide pointed at what she called "Beer street" guess where I went after the tour Looking for local brews I went into a lovely drinking den, the list and selected Steiger @ 11% A lovely beer with a good depth of flavour, ok it's in the wrong glass but the Urpiner is also very good, a conventional lager style and the other half rated the cider very highly so I was allowed time to enjoy myself!
  13. Enjoyed seeing Kingbarrow at Weymouth and will follow this project with interest.
  14. That's a fabulous Bentley, thanks for posting.
  15. Enjoyed this while in Portsmouth last week, brewed locally we were told.
  16. I've seen this fella around several times, but he's very nervous, I've only just managed to get a pic from an upstairs window a Greater Spotted Woodpecker.
  17. Went to the IoW yesterday with 7 pals for one of our 1/4ly "Cultural Tours", enjoyed these amongst others and went to the where they have a constantly changing selection, 3 on and 2 getting ready worth a visit if you're over there.
  18. Thank you for that, a neighbour used to have a dovecote and we had assumed something of the sort. Cheers David
  19. On the Lawn a moment ago, a Cuckoo in the nest? From the Dove family I guess but not in my book, any ideas?
  20. My contribution I believe a Plaxton Leyland Tiger, owned by a local enthusiast and being put to good use taking us to Bath for a "Cultural Tour"! I'm sure somebody will correct me if I've got the details wrong.
  21. Looking for something else I found this taken in Emsworth Hants in 2014 a 1950 Bristol 400
  22. Seen at the Dorset County show It's in the colours of Eldridge Pope whose brewery was in Dorchester, they produced a very quaffable IPA, Royal Oak & Thomas Hardy Ale @ 12.5% the strongest beer in the country, all now gone! The cab sign is in the name of the current owners of this lovely 1947 Austin Dray.
  23. Poor old "J R Hartley" where will he get another job?
