After lots of days, I've managed to get the internet back after its sudden disappearance on Jan 20th. [ We celebrated the reappearance of it like they're doing up there. But ours was the " geriatric" over-70's version. ] I sorted it out just in time for me to send in my Big Garden Bird Watch results. Yes, me and The Significant Otter did it, even though I reckon that the "rules" are not stuck to by a fairly large percentage of the participants. Which makes the results a bit un-re- liar -bull. The TSO tried to cheat straight away ... we were getting ready to start, and a Jay landed on the back of one of the luxurious plastic garden chairs . And she said ... let's start now then . That's not right .. it is flagrant cherry-picking. It brings in a hint of bias . I've written about all the ways that B-G-B-Watchers don't do it the right way. ( It will appear here when I manage to find it) And as for the " sending in the results" I feel the need to say that the "online" route is somewhat more awkward to use than whatever it was like before. There were are few sections that I couldn't make any sense of. And I've told them so ... so there. On the plus side, January is behind us. It was bloody crap as well. It slung everything at us ..... ice, rain, torrential rain, sludge, flooded roads, ferocious winds, biting cold ..... and it is FAR TOO L O N G. But I'm dead chuffed to have the Internet back .... ... so now ..some music ..... and not just any old music. .. an uplifting cover version of DCFC's "TRANSATLANTICISM"
