B*ll*cks, I was hoping I'd be in England for the release, I'll just have to wait for the DVD release and listen to everyone banging on about it until then, still I have my memories, foggy as they are.
We get light pollution here, up until midnight-ish, then it's blissfully quiet and dark, Sunday mornings are amazingly quiet. Saw two crescents in the sky a couple of weeks ago, one I knew (I hope) was the moon, the other heaven knows, I was walking the dogs so didn't have my camera, had to relaunch a swift the same morning, first time I've really had a close look at one. Priceless
and I thought I had a hard time after having my third wisdom tooth out a couple of months ago. That beats me hands down. Get well soon, eating and drinking add fun to living. Dave
Saw a couple of conger eel heads discarded by the fishermen on the beach (this is a public beach where families go), also dead sea urchins and a dead sea cucumber, but then this is Spain, LOL
Saw a white and a pink flowered self heal in the Hoz to Beteta just over a week ago, though photos were rubbish, so don't have proof. Nice Common Spotted Orchid too.
Anyone wanting to swim with a wild pod of dolphins should head to Serifos, one of the smaller Cycladic islands, there's a bay called Psili Amos where they come every September, I swam with them for years
This pic accompanied an article in which the British Forces were accused of releasing man eating Honey Badgers around Basra in 2003 as a security measure...!x

Honey badgers are notoriously nasty beasts, I'd not want to meet one, they'd stand up to a Jackall
